to a Navy survey Most of this volume
has been used In the Government's
lighter than air activities. The cost Of
production has been reduced from about
$3.50 per 1000 cubic feet to $3.50 per

Natural gas is the source of all. he
lium now extracted, the process being
refrigeration of the gas until all the
constituents except helium have been
liquif1ed. Helium resists liquification
more than any other gas, the Navy ex-
planned. 1t cannot be liquified unless
its temperature is reduced within 712
degrees of the absolute zero-52.1 de-
grees Fahrenheit The natural gas from
which helium is extracted is subjected
to temperatures around 800 to 370 de-
grees below zero, Fahrenheit, all the
constituents except helium liquifying at
these temperatures and the nearly pure
helium then Is drawn off,
Helium is shipped in specially de-
signed tank cars, composed of many
cylinders in which the gas is contained
at pressures between 1900 and 1900
pounds per square inch, each car having
a capacity Of between 1876 ,000 and 220,-
900 cubic feet. At naval air stations 1t
is transferred to gas-holders under low
pressure or to steel cylinders under

Due to leakage of air through the
most nearly alright fabrics man can
| devise for the purpose, the helium In
airships gradually loses its original
purity and must be refined by again
freezing out the other gases. The maxi
mum purity in airship use varies from
98.5 to 80 per cent and it usually Is
repurified before the purity falls to
90 per cent.
The Navy now has two publication
plants in operation, one at the Naval

Sunnyvale, Calf. The Sunnyvale plant
has Just been completed and has dem
onstrated an efficiency of at least rs
per cent greater than any other helium

claims.

United States, is finding its way into
commercial fields for various purposes.
Though one of the rare gases, a few
years ago almost unknown except to
scientists, helium now Is coming into
common use.
Not only Is 1t ideal for airship infla-
ti0n because 1t Is inert and noninf1am-
mable, but 1t Is useful, because Of this
quality, in other fields. 1t now is being
used regularly in deep-sea diving oper-
ations to prevent the dread bends"
The bends are caused by the forcing into
the blood stream of bubbles Of nitrogen
as the pressure abates in rising from the
depths. Under modern practice an arti-
fetal atmosphere of helium and oxy-
gen Is used during the critical period
OF ascent from the bottom to overcome
the nitrogen effect.
Certain metals require treatment in
an inert atmosphere for special uses

also Is being employed for filling radio
tubes and other electrical power and
light bulbs and tubes. It Is used for
filling transformers with inert atmos-
phere.
Helium Puts Out Fires.
Because it is inert and will not mix
chemically with oxygen, helium acts as
fire extinguisher and is used for this
purpose in fighting fires in various kinds
OF oil-cracking processes.
Although helium is found in very few
parts Of the world, there Is a steady

tial gears any special service other than
to see that they are properly fabricated.
1t Is not enough to keep the lubricant
level up to the proper point. Every
season have the lubricant withdrawn
or drained off, and replace 1t with fresh
oil of a grade suitable for the tempera-
ture. The oil that lubricates the differ
entail gears is the same that keeps the
ring and pinion gears oiled. If the lub-
ricant Is too thin the oil will work out
to the ends of the rear axles and force
by the felt retainers should they be
worn. That means grease in the reaf
brakes-and trouble.

tendants at filling stations are usually

Tip to the woman who is learning to
drive: The way to know what to do
when, as Jimmy Durante would say,
you're covered with confusion" is to
remember what you do at home when
you want to call halt on arrange
ments that do not have your approval.
You simply put your foot down on it.
In the car you follow the idea by put
ting both feet down-one on the clutch
pedal and the other on the foot brake
pedal.
If you want to win hubby over to the
idea of letting you learn to drive the
car try to think of all the women you
knoW who have distinguished them
selves at the wheel Gloss over the
failures I heard of q chief of police
who wouldn't let his wife take the
wheel because he was afraid she would
turn out to be a menace like another
local woman who had all the other
drivers scampering when she whizzed
down Main street.

Half the world at least knows how
the other half drives.
If a service man should happen to
tell you that there is nothing to worry
about because little Johnny has dis
covered that the front brake is hot dc
not jump to the conclusion that you
had better seek wiser counsel. What
the mechanic means is that the heat
at the drum is due to drag resulting
in turn, from the fact that the drum
is a little warped. Since the drum
expands outwardly, it will pull away
from the brake shoes as the heating
! increases until a point Is reached be
yond which there is no danger. OF
course, it would be well to have the
drum trued up, but in the meantime

Aiding Tire Life.

Because the heavy Summer driving
season Is well under way, careful motor
lists will be interested in knowing how
to make their tires last longer.
More powerful motors, providing
quicker pickup and increased speed
cause tires to wear out faster on present
modern automobiles. At so miles per
hour, for instance, the rate Of tread
wear Is twice as fast as at 35 miles per
hour Furthermore, the demand for
low, speedy cars has required manufac-
turers to use wheels with smaller
diameters-and, naturally. the smaller
the wheel diameter, the more times it
must revolye to the mile, according to
tire engineers.
In addition. they point out, hot dry
roads cause tires to wear faster than
cool. damp highways. For example.
driving on a dry road at temperatures
around 90 degrees the rate of tread
wear is more than twice as fast as at
so degrees.
Engineers point out five things to
watch to insure getting the full mileage
from tires:
First-Avoid overinflation, getting too
much air in tires, which makes the
driving wheels bounce and spin on the
road, creating fast tread wear Avoid
underinfation, not keeping enough air
in tires, because this causes scuffed
treads and uneven wear Check infla-
tions in tires each week. because at the
comparatively low pressures at which
tires are inflated now, pound or two
makes great deal of difference in
results.
Second-Have car wheels checked at
least twice each year for misalignment
and other mechanical irregularities, SO
tires ride the road properly
Ihird-Keep brakes in proper adjust
ment: avoid sudden stops slow down
gradually whenever possible
Fourth-Avoid starting the car up too
rapidly and drive at a moderate rate
of speed around turns.
Fifth-When you replace your tires
with new ones, always put in new tubes
too, because the old ones worn, stretch
ed and wrinkled will cause pinching and
chafing, resulting in leaks or bloWouts.
