But the Soviet will not be caught napping. Perennial squabbles with the Japanese long ago necessitated evitable showdown in Siberla. From the Russian-Japanese war of 1904 the Rugslans learned bitter lessons of the diflicultles encoun- tered by the supply services of an army in the field operating 5,000 miles from European bases.

Austria, dissatisfied with am< ends' Serbia was willing to make for the assassination of Archduke" Franz Ferdinand at' Sarajevo, took the first belligerent step In a conflict wheih became the First Great War and which ultimately résulted in the dismemberment of the Austro-Hungarian mon. arehy, ' The Archduke, heir to Franz Josef's throne, and his wife were slain by Gayrilo Princip on Juna 28, 1914, on a street in Sarajevo, where Franz Ferdinand was mak+ ing a state visit, On July 23, 1914, Austria pre- sented an ultimatum listing sweep- ing demands. She insisted on a purge of all clements in Serbia hostile to the Hapshurg monarchy, and demanded that Austrian offi- cers be allowed to conduct the purge, Serbia made far-reaching con- ~ cessions, but they were inadequate to Austria, and war was declared July 28, 1914, a month after the assassination, What Science Is Doing SPONGE IRON A strange wartime substitute was in the making last week--a substitute for scrap iron' and steel. It is called sponge Iron, and the U.S. Bureau of Mines has decided to risk $500,000 in ~~hurry-up -- development of the hitherto unpractical "process by which it is made. To make sponge iron, ore is not It is mixed with pul. be used) and coke, then fed to a large rotary kiln. When the kiln is heated to 1,800 degrees F., the powdered coal first robs the ore (iron oxide) of its oxygen, then turns into gas, leaving fairly pure iron granules which have a spongy texture. This stuff can then be fed to the steel furnaces. Steelmakers watch the project with contending doybts and hopes, If sponge iron can be made, it will head "off a decline in steel production caused by the ominous shrinkage of U.S. scrap iron re- sources. It may also cut the cost of steel by as much as $5 a ton, ~ In the last 90 years, the steel industry has spent n {utile efforts to make sponge iron, Catch in" the process is selection of an ore which can yield high- grade sponge. Plants in Sweden and Finland are now turning it out profitably, 'Until this summer, scrap iron and steel have always been abund- - ant, so steelmakers have relied on them for 40 to 60 percent of the charge in their furnaces, But. now the U.S, needs scrap -and needs it badly because there are not enough: ¢1) open-hearth fur- naces to produce steel at the slower rate required when. higher percentages of pig iron are used, (2) blast furnaces to make pig for the steel, The furnace handi- cap will be overcome if the sponge iron process can be perfected, since sponge iron plants can be built more quickly and cheaply than new blast furnaces, and are cheaper to operate.--Time.
