W. {. I. L. NOTES
ON SUGAR SHORTAGE

The War Production Board. the
OPA. and the War Food Admins
tratiOn now are busy explaining
that 900.o tons OF sugar in 1914
were used for industrial alcohol.
but they do not explain state
ment OF the Alcohol Tax Unit is
sued after the August "hOliday'
that ll.5l 1000 tax gallons pro
duced by industrial alcohol plants
We're available for beverage pur-
poses.
They do not explain why the
grain used ior beverage alcohol
could not have been used for in
dustrial alcohol To save sugar
They do not even mention that II
large portion of the S00.000 tons
of excessive distribution" got in
10 the hands of bootlcSgers twhO
weren't supposed to exist if we
got repeaD.
They state that no sugar has
been "allocated" for alcohol for
the July holiday" but end up with
the admission that some black
strap molasses,- IA by-product of
cane sugar--may be SO used.
Industrial users OF sugar face a
cut to ii 500 of the amount of 1871
supply.
Bakers predict a further reduc-
ton in quotas of sugar which will
result in the equivalent of ration
ing of bakery products despite the
plentiful supply of wheat flour
And don't overlook the fact that
in all this furor about sugar short
ages nothing is being said about
the brewers who used up some
2n5. 900 lbs of sugar and syrups
in 1914

and if over enemy territory would provide a
priceless supply of U-235 plutonium 10 the foe.
The bomb, as planned, would be set off by the
Iction of the tiny neutron particles they pierced
Ihe U-235 or plutonium and made the atoms split.
ne neutrons previous 20 the explosion, would be-
wandering around in the bomb and might escape
hto the air. II some Of them should the blast
Mould be weakened.
Therefore important task at the Los Alanos
|lboratory 10 develop an effective 'refecting"
haterial which would turn neutrons back into the
bomb il they should be about To escape. This
rmy has not disclosed, although the Smyth
bort gives a hint
The report calls il "a material of high density
Asile strength turns out To be unimpoFtant"
bid silver, lead and platinum are metals of
kgh density and low tensile strength in pure
|orm. but the report does not mention them
Enything else.
"a MOTHER important task To estimate the
effectiveness OF the still unbut bomb. This
Foud not be determined merely by computing the
hmount of energy which its explosion might re-
ease. There was no assurance that one uranium
bomb. equal TO 10000 tons of TINT, would be
Effective 10000 two-ton bombs
