New Combustion Method TrebIes ShaIe
vi Production At Swedish Refinery

STOCKHOLM-A new comubs.
ton method by which Sweden's
shale oil production can be trebled
at moderate cost has been evolved
by the kvarntorp shale oil works
IN conjunction with the firm Sven
ska Maskinverken of Sodertalie.
A dozen or SO world patents COW
erlng the process have been Sc
cured.
Inc origin of the project was
the conversion of a La Mont steam
boiler system, for which Svenska
Maskinverken hold the Swedish IL
cense, into shaft kiln traversed
by number of narrow Cooling,
tubes with pressure circulated
water
A kiln of this kind was filled
with shale coke and combustion
was started. A coke bed 10 feet
deep, or ten times the previous
maximum depth of l foot 4 inches
now became possible Simultane-
ously, the new coil system was
tried out, by means of which the
temperature can be kept just be-
low sintering point. The coils con-
slst of SO finger-like 4-meter pipes
gong down into the coke bed of
each shaft. A considerably in
load on the cokine area
vas rendered possible, which is
of great Importance when consid-
ring costs. In this manner the
'oke combustion problem was
'olved, and it is now possible to-
un through no less than 1,2OO tons
II coke per day, producing as
nuch as 1000 tons of superheated
team which again can be turned
nto power.
Developments continued by the

Congress Needs
Rule Changes

WASHINGTON GPA)-An
attack on the filibuster was one
of the key requests made of all
members of the 81st Congress
last week by the Natl Commit
tee for Strengthening Congress.
The Committee, which in
cludes people with views as
varying as CIO Secretary Treas
urer James B. Carey and Gener-
al Electric President Charles E.
Wilson, agreed on rules reforms
it would like to see passed in
the New Congress.
-Four great dangers now con-
front the efficient functioning
of the 81st Congress" said let
ter which went to all the Sen
ators and Representatives.
"1-Filibusters in the Senate.
2-Blockades in the House.
3-Hostile coalitions on the
floor
4-Converting professional
committee staffs into patronage
positions.
THE filibuster, wrote Com
mittee Chairman Robert Heller,
makes the worlds greatest de-
Lucrative body appear ridiculous
to the nation and the world"
House rules" he said, must
be changed to eliminate the vote
power of the Rules committee"
over other committees.
In discussing mostile coalitions
on the floor, the committee made
itclear that they consider the
two-party system "the only way
for us to run our democracy"
Party leaders should have the
responsibility and power to Sc
lect the chairmen of the stand
ing committees instead of rely
ing upon the seniority system,
they declared.
Finally, the group suggested
that the House follow the lead
of the Senate, whose Commit
tee on Executive Expenditures
has studied ways and means of
implementing and improving
the Legislative Reorganization
Act of 1916. This act provided
for professional stating of
stading committees on per-
manent basis without regard to
political affiliations and solely
on the basis of fitness to per-
form the duties of the office"
