TO RID LONDON
or FOG STROUD
Scientist Discovers Method Of
Eliminating Dust and Smoke
From Fuel.
HARD COKE IS NOW PRODUCED
Claim Made That Invention Will Stop
Much of Great Waste Of Fuel
That Now Exists and Cheap
en- Coal Mining.

London.-The London fog soon will
be as much of myth as the dodo or
the unicorn IL newly discovered
process Of coal carbonizatlon does all
that its inventor says that 1t will.
The man who is threatening to de.
stroy one Of the English capitals
most famous traditions is John Rob
erts, mining instructor of London.
Perhaps Mr.. Roberts got lost In one
Of the swirling yellow mists as he
was hurrying to an important en-
gagement, so that he has since cher
ished a grudge against it. Be that
as it may, the fact remains that ever
since he got out of the army in 1919
he has been working to find method
of liberating London from the fog
once and for ALL
Coke Process Discovered.
The fruits of his labor is a new
process of making seml-coke from
coal. A mixture of powdered coking
and noncoking coal is subjected to
carbonization at a temperature Of
between 600 and 700 degrees cent?
grade, resulting in a bright, hard
coke. Mr.. Roberts asserts that 1t Is
easily ignited, will produce little dust
and burns with a straw-colored flame
producing a cheerful glow.
In attacking the fuel problem Mr..
Roberts has at least gone about in
the right way to eliminate the fog,
for it is the smoke produced from the
smoke of thousands Of London CRATE
fires that makes possible the dense
fOgs that this city has every autumn.
Elimination of Waste.
But Kidding London of her fogs is
only one of the virtues Mr.. Roberts
claims for his invention. He main
tains that 1t will stop much Of the
great waste of fuel that now exists
and will result in the cheaper mining
of coal. The inventor says that about
50000,000 tons Of small coal annually
is wasted in British mines, which could
be converted into solid fuel and that
his process will convert large part
Of this waste into useful by-products,
such as tar fuel OIL motor spirit, rich
gas and sulphate of ammonia.
But if Mr.. Roberts can only rid
London Of her fog the citizens will
hold that he has forever entitled him
self to the gratitude Of his country
men.

PARIS STREETS TO HONOR us.
Names in French Capital to Com
memorate Participation of Amer
leans in War.

Paris.-The participation of the
American expeditionary force in the
European war will be duly common
grated in the nomenclature Of the
streets of Paris. The municipal coun-
Gil soon will resume the task of remain
ing some 200 Of the city's thorough
fares and, according to French custom,
the leading figures Of the war will be
freely ihonored.
Thus far only Gen. Gallieni, the de
fender of Paris; Guynemer, the "ace of
aces" in aviation, and Col. Bonnet, who
distinguished himself at Scissors, have
been the honored. General Pershing
was on the list that was under consld-
Grafton when the work was suspended
on account of objections to the aboli-
ton Of old names because Of senti-
mental or historical reasons. Pershing,
Clemenceau, Foch and other leaders
are on the new list, however.
There still remains score of streets
in Paris with German and Austrian
names that may never be changed. In
Guided are the rues Beethoven, Gluck,
Meyerbeer, Richard Wagner, Mozart,
and Palatine, the rue de Vienne and
the Place Budapest. Streets that re
call great German musicians and poets
probably will be left unchanged.
1t has been decided to rechristen all
streets that were named after the own
ers of the property through which they
were originally cut. In addition there
will be $50 new streets opened in con-
sequence Of the demolition Of the city
Notifications, which will furnish ample
opportunity to honor the greatest
heroes of the war.
Paris streets and squares with Amer
lean names at present are Avenue
President Wilson, rues Lincoln, Frank
lin, Louisiana and Washington, and the
Place des Etats Unis.
