PACE THIRTEEN "FUTURE REVIEWED, Coal and Oil May Be Re- "placed by Harnessing i 3 Nature FIVE SOLUTIONS German Engineer Has Scheme to Dam Mediter- ranean Sea Paris, --Coal and oil as sources of power may become as obsolete as flint and tinder if experiments of French Scientists are success- . The experiments are no quasi- theoretical laboratory investigation but practical inquiries in intimate 'contact 'with the natural energies which' the savants hope to be able to put to work for mankind. No less than five solutions are being considered for the grave pro- 'blem of what the world will do for power when the supplies of ofl' and coal are exhausted. These 'experiments can be described brief- ly-as follows: 1, A plan to tap the thermal en- ergy. of the sea, ie. to utilize 'the difference in temperature be- tween a current such as the Gulf Stream of a constantly high tem- perature and the surrounding wat- ers of a much lower heat. 2. A device--which has already proven its value--for capitalizing the energy of the tides. 3. A plan for utilizing the dif- ference in temperature of tropi- cal and arid regions, such as the Sahara desert, and of adjacent mountains of relatively low tem- perature, in other words, a scheme to harness the heat that rises from the desert. 4. A new method for the wind. 5. A plan for creating an arti- ficial fall of water between two neighboring bodies of water of different altitude such as the Medi terranean and the Dead Sea, the utilizing FLIT xis Roaches Backache! Bladder Trouble Sleepless Nights! the volume entering the lower body being exactly equivalent to the amount of evaporation, Dam Mediterranean A sixth idea is from the brain of a German engineer who pro- poses to dam the Mediterranean at the Dardenelles and at the Atlan- tic end, using the overflow for the production of electrical energy and the {irrigation of the Tunisian Sa- hara, The father of these ideas it might be said, is Dr. Georges Claude, member of the Academy of Sciences, who is now working off the coast of Cuba, construc- ting a pipe, some 5,000 feet long into the sea by which he hopes io demonstrate that the thermal en- ergy of the sea can be made to work for humanity, Claude was virtually the first member of ths Academy to devote his attention to possible new sources of power. His achievements have inspired other engineers and physicists to try their hand at the fascinating problem. In his present undertak- ing he is financed almost wholly by Mis colleagues in the Academy, probably the first speculative ven- ture in history financially backed by scientists. Claude hopes to have his first turbine--a small hundred horse- power affair--running by October. By Fgbruary he thinks he will be able to develop 1500 horsepower. If these plans work out, he will establish a fully equipped powér station of 16,000 horsepower. There is no limit to the number of such stations he will be able to es- tablish once the initial unit is shown to be practical. Another experiment involving the construction of = enormously long pipes is that being conducted on a small scale by Bernard Dubos. This plan involves the laying of tube along the incline of the Atlas Mountains from its base, the des- ert, to' the top. Dubos proposes to take advantage of the fact that heat tends to rise in columns, or rather whirling cyclone like cones of energy. His idea is to canalize the cyclone by leading the heat under a large surface of glass up- on the ground to the pipe, at the lofty upper end of which a tur- bine would transform the force into electrical energy. Dubos' Idea in U, S. Engineer Dubos' idea, it. is point- ed 'out, can be applied wherever desert and mountain are found to- gether. The American desert re- gions of Nevada and Arizona fit this description, Pierre Gandillon, also an en- gineer, has worked out a plan for the construction of. a basin inter- mediate between the Mediterranean and the Dead Sea at a greater al- titude than either body. The water from the Mediterranean would be pumped up to the artifical basin and then permitted to fall into the Dead Sea which is at an excep- tionally low altitude, lower than the Mediterranean, The amount of water poured into the Dead Sea would be regulated by the amount sf evaporation. The engineer asserts that his plan is "applicable wherever .two adjacent bodies of water, of dif- ferent altitudes' exist. He makes only one condition and that is that the larger body be inexhaus- tible. He enumerates a half doz- en places in' Africa, Asia and North America where he could apply his idea. Maurice Thomas has invented a water wheel which is already in use as a means of propulsion for boats, but which has in it the solu-~ tion of that dream of stock Ppro- moters--a way to tap the energy of the tides. At present it is used to enable ships: to move against the current upon power derived from that current. Conceive of a hub with two spokes and no rim. At the end of each spoke, a door which swings until it 4s right angles to the end of the spoke, at which point it is rigid. As the ship enters the water, the current strikes the door forcing the wheel around and the ship moves ahead against the cur- rent.. The swinging door arrange- ment keeps the véssel from slip- ping back and eliminates friction. Some people don't care what they do and neither does anyone else.--XKingston Whig-Standard.

BRITAIN RETURNS IRAK MANDATE 10 LEAGUE OF NATIONS Colonial Office Note Indi- cates That Inhabitants Want Control Ended London, Sept. 19.--That the La- bor government has decided to re- linquish British control of the king- dom of Irak is clearly the implica- tion of the reportf orwarded by the colonial office to the mandates com- mission of the League of Nations, made public here last night. The press has obtained inferential con- firmation of this in a responsible quarter, The British report states baldly and without qualification the rea- sons why King Feisal and all &lc- tions of opinion in Irak desire to see the British mandate terminat- ed. No compensating reasons are adduced by the colonial office as to why the British should remain in Bagdad and continue garrisoning the country against the wish of the inhabitants. British support will be given to Irak's request for membership in the League of Nations this year. Such membership would automatic- ally terminate the British mandate, Irak's appeal for membership in' {the league was refused last year | by the Conservativeg overnment, largely for the reason that a simi- lar request by Egypt had been turned down, and it was felt that to support Irak's league member- ship while denying Egypt's would enrage Egyptian nationalists. For the same reason the Egyptian de- mand for independence could not be refused if Great Britain at the same time was preparing to clear out of Irdk. This situation has been changed by the recently drafted Anglo- Egyptian treaty, still to be ratified, and for these d other reasons it seems clear that' Labor has decided to bring the expensive adventure in Mesopotamia to an end and clear out, It is generally thought here that the British will retail Bazra, with troops stationed there, as a pro- tection for Anglo-Persian oil fields and pipe-lines. 'SEEK ELDERLY MAN IN MYSTERY DEATH Murder 'Theory Discarded After Finding Body of School Girl Toronto, Sept. 19.--Although provincial police have discarded the murder theory first suggest- ed, there remains a missing link in the probe being held into the death of 17-year-old Jean Dixon, the Central Technical scheol girl, whose body was found a week ago on the railway track near Leaside. The missing factor in the case, police say, is an elderly man who is believed to have played an im- portant factor in the sequence of events that led up to the girl's death. City and provincial poilce are continuing a province-wide search for this man who is re- ported to have left the city. When found, the girl held an ether bottle in one hand and the stopper in the other. Professor J. L. Rogers, provincal analyst, is conducting an examination of cer- tain of the organs, but as:yet has not reported. No date has been set yet for the inquest. When investigations are complete, formal proceedings will be opened by Coroner W. L. Bond. Miss Irene Fulton Tells How Cuticura Healed Eczema "Eczema started on my face in hard, red pimples which in a few days would break and then scale over. While it was in this scaly form my face would itch and burn, and the irritation prevented me from sleeping or getting any rest. The trouble lasted about four months. "I used several remedies but they did not seem to help me. I began using Cuticura p and Ointment and they rel the itching and burning, and in about five weeks I was completely. healed, after using three cakes of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment."

COHEN TO DIRECT FAMOUS PLAYERS Named Managing Director When Nathanson Resign- * ation is Accepted Toronto, Sept. 19.--Following a disagreement because of his desire to place before the shareholders an offer which he stated he could obtain from the Gaumont company for the purchase of the shares of Famous Players Canadian corpora- tion, N, L. Nathanson resigned as managing director of the' corpora- tion yesterday afternoon. The board of directors accepted the resignation and Arthur Cohen of Toronto, chairman of the head office executive, was appointed managing director. The directors are: Adolph Zukor, New York, president; J, P, Bickell, Toronto, vice-president; Sir Herbert Holt, Montreal; S. R. Kent, New York; I. W. Killam, 'Montreal; N, L. Nathanson, Toronto; His Honor W D. Ross, lieutenant-governor of Ontario; W. J. Sheppard, Waubau- ghene; J. B. Tudhpoe, Orillia; and Sir William Wiseman, New York, In a statement {issued to the press, Mr, Nathanson contended Why not drink the finest tea that is grown? "SALAD L TEA 'Fresh from the gardens' v the shareholders would continue the Canadian property in British control, but later J. P, Bickell, vice-president of Famous Players Canadian corporation, issued a statement saying the directors were satisfied that the Gaumont company was controlled by United States interests. Mr. Nathanson in his letter to the press assailed I. W. Killam and Adolph Zukor for opposing his proposal to submit the Gaumont of- fer to the shareholcer-, [Ir Zukor is president of the corporation and head of ths United States Famous Players. 1 that the offer he would submit to Beautifying the Prairies The planting of trees around the farm homes of Canada's prairie lands has been developed to a very large extent by the service pro- vided by the Canadian government in distributing seedlings and cut- tings from the forestry farms es- tablshed at various points in the west, There are now more than eight million seedlings and cut- tings distributed annually, and the effect of the service is seen in many parts in the improved conditions about the farm homes, where groves and shelter belts have been established.
