MORE RUBBER

Another hope for solving
the synthetic rubber problem,
though still in the laboratory
sto9e, is butyIene gIycoI, about
which you may be hearing
more from time to time. The
bosis Of oil synthetic rubber
is butadiene, the eos which
can be made from petroleum
or eythI alcohol. The alcohol
is made by oddine q ferment
to q sugar or starch solution,
and distiIIing the resulting fer
mented mash. Using q differ
emf fermentine agent, instead
Of getting ethyl alcohol, buty-
Iene eIycoI is obtained. Ad-
vantage Of butyIene eIycoI is
sold TO be that it yields more
butodiene per busheI of grain
than ethyl alcohol. The yeast,
or fermenting agent VIII ch
produces butyIene gIycoI was
developed at the University of
Iowa.
Ever since the Supreme
Court decided that labor un-
ions couldn't be prosecuted for
violation Of the antitrust laws,
the Department Of Justice has
had TO lay low on its labor con-
sPirocy cases, but it Still has
q few in which unions and un-
ion officials ore involved. In
the Dubuque, Io., milk cose,
one union official was finally
involved for conspiracy to fix
prices Poid producers for milk
end prices TO be charged for
milk at retail. In the army hot
case, at Philadelphia, union
officials ore involved with
manufacturers charged with
conspiracy to fix prices on bids
for contracts to make army
heodgeor. In q San Francisco
building cose, union men ore
With employers in q
conspiracy to limit production.
So the only way q crooked
labor leader can be got at to-
day on anti = trust charges is
for him to be involved With q
employee.

Finds Sun Is 93,OO5, 900
Miles from the Earth

New YORK.-The suns distance
from earth has been remeasureo
and is found to be 93,005, 600 miles
This is between 100000 and ZOO,-
600 miles farther than previous
measurements, which were the re-
suit of centuries of careful work
The announcement is from Dr. n:
Spencer Jones, astronomer royal OF
England, made in Monthly Science
News, a new British publication.
The added gap between sun anC
earth is about as much as woulo
be caused by moving the moon three
to FIVE times farther away. Inc
moon would look only about hal1 as
big as now.
The new distance to the sun IS
the most accurate yet obtained. II
is considered uncertain by margin
Of not more than 10000 miles. Inc
former estimate, 92,850,O 600 miles,
was uncertain by 50,000-mlle mar
gin.
Astronomers would like to get rio
of that last lO,OOO-mile error. for the
stifi's distance is the foot-rule OF ce-
lestial' measurement. As long as II
continues uncertain. other measure
ments are affected.

Old Feud Goes On;
Cause Forgotten
1t All Concerns Great and
Little Snoring.

NORFOLK, ENGLAND Between
two apparently peaceful villages
Great Snoring and Little Snoring
there exists a deep and bitter feud.
Set IN the heart of the green fields
Of Norfolk, these villages, only a
mile apart, each has its own Saxon
church, a hubble of ancient cot
tages, and the population of each for
ne most part, comprised of farmers
and farm laborers
The population of Great Snoring
numbers approximately $40, while
that of Little Snoring is about $50
less.
The only link between the two vii
lagos Is the parson that they share
the Rev. L. A. Williams who is the
rector Of both parishes. He lives IN
the larger village and cycles to and
tro between them.
Even the older members of the
villages known for the longevity OF
its men and women) are at loss
as TO what the feud is really about
or when it started, but despite this
there IS no inhabitant of either vii
lage who will speak readily to the
other.
II IS feud such as one imaglnes
existed between the Montagues and
Capuiets." the rector said. 1T

Removing Stains From Glass

Old decanters and jugs frequently
have unsightly incrustations. If
these stains are obstinate, the de-
canter should be filed with tepid
soapy water containing little borax
and let stand several hours. If this
does not do the work, crushed egg
shells should be added to the solu-
ton and the whole shaken to pro-
vide friction.
