MEN AND AFFAIRS
BY ROBERT r. SMALL.

young washingtonian thought he had
heard OF every kind of alcohol In these
gay days of beating the devil about
the bush. but Isopropyl was stranger
to him. To get clear on this one ques-
tionsble point he consulted the I'M
abridged and unadulterated dictionary.
There he discovered 1sopropyl as big
as life and he read the definition with
unailoyed amazement. Here II was:
'Isopropyl-A univalent radical. lso-
meric with normal propyl."
This surely was illuminating. But
the research was carried further-to
propyl There It was. too. and thus
the definition ran.
"Propyl-The univalent radical Of

The young Washingtonian admitted
he had drunk number OF queer mix
lures in his life, but nothing like pro
pane had ever passed his pallid lips.
But. undaunted. he searched out Pro

Here Il was:
"Propane-A heavy gaseous hydro

leum."

Central powers. 155 900 900.
| The disparity. however. was not 50
great as these figures would indicate.
for the allied figures included colored
races, which were not called upon or
which could not enhance the fighting

Empire the fighting forces Of the King

In the territory Of the Southern Bell

It generally will be adopted. The new

there Is no loud clash of mixed num-

The old system in the South, and
the one which still prevails through
most Of the country, calls for double

the call completed almost as soon as

This particular THANK you Is not

In the South the new system works
thus:

While the price Of copper holds noml-
nally at 149s cents, some copper Is
changing hands as low as 14Ac. 1t is
stated that the holding off of buying is
due to the delayed decision of the fed
eral trade commission relative to the
Association of Copper Exporters. Ex-
mort business is very slow and this
slowness may be attributed to the eX-
pected activity 1of this association.
Copper consumption is not advancing
at the rate some writers on the copper
conditions would have you believe. In
some places it has increased to very
considerable extent, while in other
nlaces there has been drop, and the
increases and decreases just about off,
set each other, so that the copper con-
sumption this, year so far is just about
the same as it was for the same period
last year.
The United States, Canada, Russia
and France have been the countries
where there has Deen an advance in
consumption of Importance. During
1925 the United States consumed 1885,
900 tons of the red metal and the cur
rent year is at SO5,400 tons, an increase
of Importance. Canada shows an in
crease from 1880 tons to 16,6O0 tons.
Russia increased from 5000 tons TO
