-Four members Of the local taxi

Senate Patents Group
Told Zinc Company
Is Curbing Output
Said to Have Encouraged
Production by Its Own
Processes Abroad
Py the Associated Press.

Ry the Associated Press.
Allen Dobey, a special assistant
Attorney General, told the Senate
Patents Committee today that the
New Jersey Zinc Co. was restricting
production of high grade zinc while
the Nation faces an acute short
age"
At the same time, Mr.. Dobey de-
clared, the company has encouraged
unlimited production by its own pat
ented processes in foreign countries,
including Germany.
He said that after expected fur
ther curtailment of civilian con-
sumption, War Production Board Of
ficials believe there will be enough
high-grade zinc for military pur-
poses this year.
Shortage in 1943 Seen.
"The possibility of a more acute
shortage in 1943 and beyond" he
added, can only be eliminated by
rapid expansion of our present fa-
cilities for the production of this
vital commodity"
High-grade Zinc-metal at least
99.99 per cent pure, is needed for
shell castings, small arms ammuni-
ton and die casting parts for tanks
and airplanes
The New Jersey company owns
the United States patents for the
vertical retort process which is one
of the principal and cheapest meth
DDS of producing high-grade zinc,
Mr.. Dobey said.
Mr.. Dobey further declared that
the company has continuously and
over a long period of years pursued
policy of limiting the production
of high-grade zinc in this country
for the stabilization of the domestic
market"
Du Pont Co. Restricted.
To this end, he said, the firm had
prohibited its principal American
licensee, E. 1. du Pont de Nemours
e. Co., from producing the high
grada product and has required
Du Pont to sell half the zinc pro-
duced under the license as of lower
grade than its actual quality.
BY discouraging the production OF
high grade zinc by other firms, Mr..
Dobey asserted, the New Jersey Co.
is attempting to preserve its posi-
ton in the field after the war.
Mr.. Dobey explained that New
Jersey Zinc required in its licenses
that metals be debased if producers
threatened the high purity produc-
ton
This caused Senator La Toilette,
Progressive, of Wisconsin, to COM
ment that he could think of moth
ing worse than requiring that metal
be debased when there was a scare
! ity of pure zinc in this country"
Mr.. Dobey said he knew of no in
stances where this debasement of
zinc had taken place, but the pro-
vision had been used to stabilize
prices under the same idea as
plowing up every third row of
crops"

Escaped Nazi Parachutist
Recapfured in Dublin
BY Radio to The Star,

LONDON, May IA parachutist,
at large for more than three months,
has been recaptured in Dublin. At
the same time the Irish government
has issued two special emergency
orders calling for the internment
siders 1t "expedient" to intern and
the arrest of any person assisting
internees to escape or communicate
with the outside world.
Hans Marchner, the recaptured
parachutist, is the sixth German
parachutist known to have landed
in Ireland. He landed in County
Wexford in March, 1941. and was
caught few days later. This Febru-
ary he escaped from Mountjoy Jail
in Dublin and had been at large
until yesterday. 1t is believed that
he was assisted to escape and hidden
during three months by the illicit
Irish Republican Army.
Hermann FoetZ, another German
parachutist, who was caught last
October, had been at large for 18
months before he was caught. His
arrest was closely linked with the
kidnapping of Stephen Hayes, an I.
R. A. man, and it was disclosed that
the I. r. A. and German agents
were working in close collaboration
The latest internment order,
which is to be executed having re-
gard to the states international
obligations, may have been designed
to cover the recent internment of a
German hotelkeeper. who was found
to be in constant contact with
Germany.

Synthetic Rubber
Search Focuses on
Two New Methods
Senote Group Learns
Of One; U. S. Experts
To Test Out Other

Two new high hopes for produc-
ing synthetic rubber in hurry are
being investigated today by the
Government.
The Senate Agriculture Commit
tee heard a few details about one
scheme yesterday-from the lips of
a Polish chemical engineer named
Waclaw Szukiewicz, who escaped
from his native land after his plant
for rubber production fell into the
hands of the Nazis.
Speaking English with difficulty,
he told the Senators he had pro-
duced his artificial rubber at about
80 cents pound, and it made good
auto tires.
The Poles backer, DR.. Lewis H
Marks of Philadelphia, who de-
scribed himself as the largest pro-
ducer OF commercial alcohol In the
United States, said he has erected
a plant for the chemist near Phila-
de'phia, and found he can do what
he claims"
Claim 100, 900 Ton Potential
What Mr.. Szvkiewicz claims is
that by the use of alcohol derived
from farm products and a Govern
ment investment of 75,0e0 900 in
the process, enough butadiene rub
Der base could be turned out fol
TOO 900 tons of rubber a year. Plants
could be operating in eight months
Senator Gillette, Democrat, OF
Iowa, presiding at the hearing, broke
in to note that previous witness
had estimated that $3.50, ,00O, 900 hac
been pledged by the Reconstruction
Finance Corp. for erection of syn
thetic rubber plants-using a petro-
leum proceSs-that would take Ii
months for completion.
Another, more amazing story, was
uncovered today by the Associated
Press.
1t revealed that within a fort
night Government experts will
crowd into a little glass laboratory
not far from Washington to watch
with eagle eyes the performance OF
a man who claims he can make rub
ber from natural gas, grain and
either wood pulp or coal.
Taxis Test Tires.
Using materials supplied by this
inventor, officials in Washington
have supervised the retreading OF
four tires. All have been placed
on taxis and have performed notably
after 5000 miles of wear, it was said
It's the consensus that there's
never been any material quite like
this-except rubber itself. Known
synthetic rubber reactions are miss
ing. Analyses seem to show crude
rubber, while the tire tests indicate
qualities equal or superior to real
rubber.
Scientifically, experts say, it's al
most unbelievable, and they have
fingers crossed. The inventor has
refused to disclose vital details.
