New Process Produces
Alcohol From Whey

Agriculture Department scientists
have discovered a way to obtain al
cohol from milk.
The process Is expected to provide
a commercial use for whey, by
product Of cheese production now
usually wasted. 1t may also help
to eliminate water pollution near
cheese factories which dump whey
into nearby streams.
Whey, the substance which re-
mains when the fat and protein of
milk have been removed, is q rela-
lively cheap source of fermentable
sugar in normal times, an Agri-
culture department spokesman
pointed out. BY adding yeast to
the lactose, or milk sugar, In the
whey, alcohol can be produced in
about SIS hours, 1t was revealed.
The Agriculture Department off,
|cial said it was not possible at this
time to say how much the process
would cost in commercial applica-
ton, but indicated 1t would prob
ably be as cheap as other sources
|of alcohol.
Up to now, the chief use for
whey has been as feed for farm

they can capitalize on. his actions.
Former Premier. Leon Blum and
Edouard Herriot, Frances elder
statesman, are worried. In spite OF
his rs years and many physical
handicaps Mr.. Blum Is ready to re-
turn to active politics. He is to
meet Paul Reynaud, who was head
of the government In the tragic days
of Frances collapse. to offer him an
alliance against the threat of q
strong De Gaullist movement.
According to his close friends, Mr..
Reynaud has not made up his mind
which way to Jump. He is ambi-
tious, and desires to return to power
He also knows that he cannot hope
to become premier yet and will have
to content himself for the time
being with secondary position in a
new French cabinet.
Ambitious and Shrewd.
Mr.. Reynaud likes Mr. Blum and
dislikes Gen. de Gaulle, who was In
his cabinet in 1910 and revealed
himself, even a minor official, a
colonel attached to Mr.. Reynaud's IS
cabinet, as an untractable and over
bearing person.
But Mr.. Reynaud Is shrewd and
ambitious. His decision to join Mr.
Blum in trying to stop Gen. de
Gaulle depends on his final estimate
of Gen. de Gaulle's prospects OF
eventual success. He is not likely
to undertake fight against a power
which he feels will finally triumph.

religious organizations today regis-
tered their opposition before q Sem
ate Labor and Public welfare sub
committee to granting Federal aid
to non-public schools.
With one exception, the witnesses

ated by religious and sectarian

and suggested that compromise
blu be adopted. He asked that ceF-
tain essential school services be prd-
vided for all pupils, with the niodi-
.fication that no funds be made
available for the salaries of teaci1-
ers In nonpublic schools.

Dying Nee Accused
Dancer, Doctor Says
BY the Associated Press


HAVANA, Nov. 3.-Dr. Ruben
Santillana testified today that John
Lester Nee of Chicago told him
while dying last April that I'VE
had a fight and Patricia shot me. "
The reference was to Patricia
Schmidt, the divorce from Toledo
Ohio, who as a dancer called her
self Satira. The girl already has
told of shooting Nee aboard his
converted yacht Satira, asserting
she was in terror of her life.
Soon after Dr. Santillana testified
the case was postponed until No
vember IA because witnesses were
absent. 1t was the third lengthy
delay.
DR.. Santillana, an intern, said he
heard Nee ask Miss Schmidt to
stay with him at the emergency
hospital where he was assigned.
Miss Jean Gregory, secretary to
the superintendent of the Anglo
American Hospital, where Nee died
on April 13, five days after Miss
Schmidt shot him through the
neck, said Miss Schmidt visited him
there for two or three days. She
said she saw no bruises on the de-
fendant and that she asked for no
medical aid. The dancer has testi-
ded Nee had beaten her.
DR.. Santillana also was asked by
several lawyers if he noticed bruises
on Miss Schmidt and each time
he said no. Judge F. S. Penichet
asked if she asked medical aid and
again the intern said no.
