Vast Pool of Brine in

CHARLESTON, w. Va, June IT.
An ancient inland sea, buried when
nature made the old Allegheny
Mountains, has become in this in
dustrial age an inexhaustible supply
well from which the great Kanawha
Valley can draw as it Yields its
$44,000,000 chemical industry into

The remnants of sea salts are now
brine. This brine, then obtained
from springs, was the start of chem
istry in the valley in 1897. The first

Now chemical plants flank the
great Kanawha River for SO miles,
above the old sea bed, and in an
area where coal and cheap power
and raw materials of many kinds
lie at the factory doors.
In today's processes the vast pool
of brine is a source of chlorine, a

brine also supplies other raw ma

LONDON, June 17.-FolloUing
Is the tert of the authoritative
British statement issued last
night Dhich declared Britain'S
determination to continue to
fight.
At a time like the present it is
natural that there should be base
less and ill-informed rumors of
peace proposals and peace negotia-
tions. 1t cannot be too clearly and
definitely stated that Great Britain
Is firmly and resolutely determined
to continue the struggle until vic
tory has been won. Even if Frances
resistance on land were seriously
weakened she still has the most
powerful navy in Europe, after the
British Navy, and this great Allied
fleet is fully capable Of enforcing
the blockade which has become ever
more effective as a result of Italy'S
entry into the war.
Germany has used up her re-
sources on reckless scale in the
present offensive, and though even
these resources may not yet be ex-
hausted, unless she can defeat the
British Empire and its Allies within
the next few months her chance of
defeating them at all will have van
ished.
Speaks Of Resources.
The tremendous resources of the
British and French empires, to-
xether with those which the United
States have placed at the disposal
Of the Allies will play a weighted
part with each week that passes,
and as week succeeds week the man
power of Britain takes its place in
the struggle with ever-increasing
momentum.
In the last few weeks more men
have been called up than in any
corresponding period in our history,
and the figure already attained :. is
certain to be largely exceeded in the
future.
The production of aeroplanes,
arms and ammunition continues to
increase at a great pace and the
supplies from America, now arriving
In substantial quantity, will soon
be coming as fast as our ports can
deal with them.

plant in the Kanawha Valley, an
expert said, can alone supply the
wartime ammonia needs OF the

TINT (trinitrotoluene) Is nitrated
toluene. which is carbon hydrogen
derivative of coal tar.
Ammonia is a by-product Of gas
and coke.
1t is turned out in tremendous
quantities, in another process, from
nitrogen taken from the air by q
f1Xation method - divorcing the
country from the World War neces-
sity of importing Chilean nitrates.
Chlorine, bromine and ethylene
are made in the plants. Phosgene,

gas is composed of sulphur, chlorine
and ethylene.

Allies within few weeks or months,
we are prepared to continue the war
just so long as it may be necessary

Floors in CoIors

AS it is now possible to obtain
floor paints in more varied line of
colors than formerly, floors may now
be coated to harmonic perfectly
with the color scheme of the room.
These paints-which are really en-
ameis-dry very quickly and set in
few hours. Before using the floors,
however, they should be left un-
touched overnight-longer. if pos
sible. Before painting, the floor
should be dry and free of grease
spots and other stains as well as
loose dirt. Brush the paint out well.
The best results are obtained from
such coatings, dried hard. Finish
with floor wax to maintain a high
gloss finish.
