Gasoline To Be

New Process can Supply I. N. T.

ROCHESTER, NY, Discovery
of a process to convert gasoline into
the toluol which makes T. N. T. in
quantities enough to supply the
United States entire needs for this
explosive in wartime, was reported
to the American Chemical society
here Monday.
Another discovery, reported in

ed golden age for Oil, told of new
by-product industry by which waste
substance known as the "squeaI' in
petroleum, can be converted into
hundreds of chemical "bases," many
of them heretofore unknown to
science.
The gasoline T. N. T. was discov-
cred by DR.. Aristide Won Crosse, of
the Universal Oil Products COM
pany, and described by DR.. Gustav
Egloff of that company.
DR.. Egloff said that no other
country knows how to convert its

though the chemists were told to-
day the precise changes made in
gasoline to get T. ~ T. the cat
alyst' that does it is a secret. The
catalyst is chemical, different
from gasoline which when mixed
