Stums will be moved from the railroads .and in their place will be green strips or vegetable gar- dens, or possibly hospitals "or sanitariums. ) The roads will not be straight, because the planning committee feels that straight roads are "in- human' and nerve - wracking. They feel that the winding roads more nearly typify the character of England anyway. All these projects and more are included in a model of the future ideal London, being shown at the National Art Gallery to hundreds of interested Londoners. . . *.

These who have seen the free- dom with which American troops spend money will enjoy this story from India. An _American. baviog hired a tonga for a distance the ordinary fare for which would be half a rupee, magnanimously handed the driver a 50-rupce note. The man shook his head vio- lently and demanded 60. "No," said the American, "that's enough, 'I shan't pay any | more." + The_Jndian thereupon accepted the money and walked away, leav- ing the tonga and pony with the purchaser. "With your every breath, the Government spends $1,000." But don't let this affect your breathing. [It ls the same if you don't. He-was dug out of his wrecked car and carried to a doctor's of- fice.

They did things with it and 20 minutes later * were passing it around--{fresh, clear and sweet-- to reporters, - It was a demonstration of a safe to drink, The compact equip- ment used, the officers predict- ed, will soon be installed on rub- bor life rafts-aboard niverafy and elongated het water bottles, and a small amount of unidentified black and' white chemicals packed in a box the size of a cigarette package. How It Works This is the way the procedure works: A little more than a quart of sea water is scooped into one of the plastic bags. Then one of the chemical compounds is dropped in, This precipitates several of substances in the water, which is then poured into another bag which contains a filter sack, The water then is saltless and still alkaline. At the bottom of the second bag is the second chemic- al. After it has been diffused through the mixture by kneading and agitation, the water is pour- ed into a third bag containing a filter, What comes out of the other end is fit to drink. The chemicals precipitated out chloride (salt) and magnesium chloride.

WHAT SCIENCE IS DOING All From Coal Probably most of us are familiar with the fact that through coal tar dyes, coal gives us a whole rainbow of gorgeous colors, but not so many persons realize that coal is potentially richer in rub. bers than all the" islands of the East, more' bountiful in fibres than all the silkworms, and in general provides a storehouse of chemicals from which may be procured many materials essential . |/ both in peace and in war. To accomplish these wonders of transformation, coa' is not dump- ed into some gigantic bubbling |. retort over a.roaring fire by a hawk-visaged chemist jn a white _smock who hovers over the mess "awaiting the particular product desired, writes W. P, Keasbey in The Christian Science Mouitor. * * . "Made from coal," according to du Pont chemists, who gave us nylon from coal, air, and water, really means that one of several intermediates used in making a product is, in tuin, made from oe or more of the severa: deriv- atives of coal, Bitumnious coal, heated in an enclosed chamber, gives off vola- tile products such as coal gas, ammonia, benzol, and toluol, and 1adves coke as a residue, These substances are then ready for use in making such widely diverse materials as anti-freeze compounds for ariplane, tank, truck and auto- mobile engines; fertilizers; insec- ticides; "soapless soaps," and lit erally hundreds of other Pa uets. / L . . For instance, about 1.1 pounds of coal are chemically utilized in the making of 'one pound of the . synthetic rubber-iike neoprene, "Lucite; the' crystal-clear Pasig for bomber : ure, rubles would be $2,280,000,000.) blisters, and this noses and, cemes from black coal, ~ is only one of many light and strong plastics to come raf coal and its derivatives. * * Toluol and methanol, used in military explosives such as TNT, como from coal, as also does tri- chlorethylene, which is an odor- less, non-inflammable dry clean- ing fluid which has now "gone to war" to make smoko screens and to clean metal parts of ordnarce quickly and efficiently, Even acetato rayon may now derive its vital acetic acid from coal. \ And out of the continuing fn- tensive research carried on under stress of war there doubtless will come many new things made from coal which will be eagerly wel-" comed by the "peacetime world. 2nd Russ War Loan Is Oversubscribed Soviet Russia's second war loan of 12,000,000,000 rubles was oversubscribed by 2,561,000,000 rubles in the first 24 hours, it was aphounced recently, and sub- scriptions were said to be moiint- ing steadily.
