CHECK WINE CROP
FOR MOTOR FUEL
Italy Takes Census Of Hold.
ings to Learn Amount
Available for Alcohol.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Italy. where gasoline fuel blends are
now retailing at around SIPS gallon,
has turned to the wine crop in its
search for a gasoline substitute.
A census of individual wine hold
ings is being made with view to as
certaining the amount which will be
available for conversion into alcohol
for use as motor fuel. Supplying less
than per cent of its gasoline require
ments. Italy incurred a tremendous
fuel bill in its heavily cam
paigns in Ethiopia.
A government decree issued early
this year required that all motor fuels
used in Italy contain at least 20 per
cent domestically produced alcohol.
To provide raw material for distillers,
sugar beet acreage has been increased
and the additional output is being
utilized for direct distillation.
Charcoal Also Used.
Spoiled rice. fruits and other agri-
cultural products are also used by
italian alcohol distilleries. Wood and
charcoal are other types of motor fuel,
A bill passed several months ago re-
quires that all auto bus engines be
modified to run with 'gasogenes" OF
other substitute motor fuels by the
end of 1887.
The 'gasogene" is an apparatus for
producing gas by the distillation Of
wood or charcoal, the gas so gener-
sted being burned in internal combus-
ton engines in place of gasoline va
por The "gasogene" is being used to
a considerable extent in Germany and
China.
Brazil Uses Alcohol.
With about 10000 automobiles In
operation and with no petroleum re-
sources, Brazil has endeavored for
years to promote he use Of domes-
tically produced alcohol as a motor
fuel. In addition to providing for the
compulsory use of alcohol in fuel
blends, government DEGREES specify
the percentage and grade to be uti-
lied and when and how the alcohol
Is to be purchased.
Brazil, with its important sugar in
dustry, has large quantities of BY
product molasSes suitable for the
manufacture of alcohol as well a.
many other vegetable products. The
present alcohol output Of that coun-
try comes largely from molasses.
