Alcohol FlavOring
Substitute Sought

Madison, Wis, July 20 CA. P. by
MaiD-Tests are under way at the
University of Wisconsin in an effort
to discover a substitute for grain
alcohol in fiavoring extracts, accord
ing to Prof. II. A. Shuette of the
university chemistry department.
Research work on the project has
been in progress several months.
The problem on which the univer-
sity is working is to find some SOL
vent for various oils used in f1avoring
extract. Alcohol is declared to be
the most satisfactory substance thus
for discovered because oils of lemon,
orange, PEPPERMINT, spearmint, almond,
winter-green and other popular oils
used in extracts are not soluble in
water.

STABILITY Seen
IN AUTO INDUSTRY
New York and Chicago
Shows Reflect Soundness,
Official Says.

Stabilizatiop was the keynote OF
bile shows. according to Walter C.
Davis. secretary and general sales
manager of the George w. Davis
Motor Car Company of Richmond, Ind
"Visftors to the national shows"
said Mr.. Davis, were impressed by
the fact that the automobile industry
Is attending strictly to business, and
is going steadily forward with Its
feet firmly on the ground-that 1t has
degree.
Evidence of this stabiliza ton was
encountered on every hand. There was
noticeable absence of freak models
the type which used to catch the
passing fancy, and the next year look
as out date as bustles. Design has
become stabilized. but 1t has not
ceased to progress. either in beauty,
distinction or comfort.
These were no symptoms OF the
spasmodic price fluctuations. with
which every year in the industry used
to be checkered-a condition which
will react to the benefit of the motor
car buyer and the industry alike.
Sweeping Changes at End.
The automobile industry Is now pro-
ducing cars on basis of economic
production, and on margin which
makes impossible the sweeping price
changes which used to occur. and at
the same time insures buyers the
greatest values possible.
The period of sterilization upon
which the industry has entered does
not mean that Improvement In motor
car design is tagging. On the con-
trary, the probability Is that under
the conditions now existing greater
fundamental improvements will be
made than ever before. AS an example,
witness the present intense examtna-
ton of braking systems. For years
comparatively little attention was
given to brakes, but today. no part
of a car is receiving more discussion.
And IL Is not because of any inner
emit fault or shortcoming of the
brakes that have been in use, but
simply the result of the efforts of the
industry to make sure that automo-
biles have the most efficient brakes
possible. And every part Of the au-
tomobile Is destined to receive SINH
lar attention in the near future.
