This + soybean fibre, which. fs 80 new il has yet to he named {s claimed to be as warm as wool, says The Financlal Post. It 18 resilient, strong, durable and can be made either moisture ab- sorbent or moisture resistant, It 1s not a competitor of any other fibre but Is sald to be an entirely new material with a grow- ing. field of usefulness, It may be blended with either cotton or wool, or it may be woven or spun into fabrics. Already it has been made experimentally {into blank- ets, felt hats, underwear. hoslery, suitings and upholstery fabrics. The processeis relatively simple in operation. From the soybean is first extracted the soybean oll. After this the residue--soybean 'meal--is sold for livestock feed. Roughly halt of this meal is pro- , tein, required amounts of which are removed to make the new fibre. : Speclal Process 1) This meal, it is said, gives a powder-like product. Through a special process this is liquefied and converted into a mass wtih a con- sistency resembling molasses. This liquid .is then forced under pres- sure through very tine platinum spinnerettes from which it emerges as hundreds of thin filaments. These filaments are then given a number of carefully controlled chemical treatments and baths during which they are stretched and hardened. Finally the fibres are dried and cut into any desired lengths. The . company's technologists have made many products experl- mentally from soybeans, including ~ plastics, wallboard and paints. Currently it produces about 70,000 tons of soybean meal annually. and , approximately- 30 milllon pounds of soybean oil, which is A » The King's Sword For Stalingrad The "pictures of the presenta. tion of the King's sword to Pre- mier Stalin make a pleasant me- morial. a little out ot the ordinary in the chronicles of the meeting at Teheran, : ne It was the great sword of hon- or, presented by Mr. Churchill in the name of the King, on the be- half of the people of Britain, in expression of their honor and re- spect for the people of Stalin- grad. The symbolism of the sword and the cross are entwined in the story of the great wars. The sword of the Crusader was like a cross and so was the sword of Joan of Arc, The King's sworll for Stalingrad lay for three days on the altar of Westminster Ab- bey. And it was taken in a sort of procession and pilgrimage through the towns of Britain and was seen by millions of the Brite ish people. ---- More than 200 ex-service men are now serving as conductors on London buses. - A former dis. abled Commando is among the latest to join the London Trans. port Service in this capacity.
