Before analyzing, even superficial- ly, the most important of these, it should be noted that the work of in.. ventors in developing their ideas is greatly facilitated by the work done by the Fascist Association of Invert- tors. After carefully studying the inventions, that Association under- takes all the necessary steps with the proper government offices for secur- ing the grant of a patent and for its practical utilisation. In this way, an invention can be placed on the mar- ket in a very brief time and the rights of all concerned are fully pro- tected. The period through which Italy passed during the Abyssinian expedi- tion was most favourable for eneot1r.. aging inventions, as the manifold requirements which arose under the circumstances, the need of protecting the country against the exodus of its gold reserves and the high ideal tension, afforded inventors a power- ful and fruitful stimulus. As hap- pened during the continental bloeka.. de of the Napoleonic wars and dur- ing the blockade enforced against Germany during the last war, so again in Italy the contribution to progress made by inventors was ma- nifold and valuable. A recent communication to the press gave the information that the; Fascist Association of Inventors and. the Central Commission of the Na- tional Research Council had handed to the Under-Secretary of the Par- ty a pamphlet containing a descrip- tion of 165 of the most important in} ventions offered to the country by Italian inventors with special refe.., renee to resistence to the economic siege. I r'S, new The basic food problem of the Ita. lian people had been solved by the many initiatives that go under the name of the "wheat campaign", but Italian inventors had to face the problem of supplying textile fibres, carburetant substitutes, agricultural requirements, cellulose and other raw materials either lacking or only Italian Inventors at work llhsmiiammmriimiimmminommrauoarsru".aaaaalsil A ', v ._ " .rrr' r" a; 7' l .

"Il piu' grande name nel Radio" di This shrub grows wild in large quantities in the arid regions of Ita- ly and is largely used by the railway companies, together with robinia, for strengthening the banks of the rail., way cuttings for firrtag loose soil in the Appenines. Three or four kilo- grams of seed yield from 20 to 22 metric tons of Droom per hectare. To meet this situation, and reduce to a minimum the indispensable im.. ports of textile fibres, measures we.. re taken to improve the chemical and biochemical processes for degumming and retting hemp so as to enable it to replace flax and jute; at the same time broom made its appearance on the textile fibre market. The most recent tests and studies Show that broo n, as a national tex- tile fibre, possesses the invaluable quality of requiring for its chemical and mechanical proeessing little ma- chinery but a large amount of unskil. led labour. I.arge factories will not be built for the processing of broom and its by-products, but a number of industrial centres will be organised near the places where it grows, and these must necessarily be numerous and scattered wherever the dry and sterile nature of the soil does not lend itself to more valuable crops. Such land is found throughout the Appenines, the islands and the foot- hills of the Alps. ' The question of textile fibres is a very important one for Italy when we consider that an average of 200 thousand tons of cotton, 50 thousand tons of wool and 70 thousand tons of jute are used each year, while only a thousand tons of cotton and 10 thousand tons of wool, and no jute whatsoever are produced in the coun. try. Among the formidable problems to be solved is that of the supply of cellulose. It is estimated that, on an average, a ton of dry broom will gi- ve 450 to 500 kilograms of good pa- per pulp which, by simple processes, can be produced in the form of raw found in insufficient quantities on Italian territory. speciale Raggi Cathode , racchiuso in metallo 8 Tubi con "short waves", meccanismo per intuonare l'indicatore.

The production of synthetic wool is based on a happy marriage of agri- culture with industry. Milk from which the fat conttht, cream, is re-. moved yields casein, which precipi- tates when subjected to a very simp- le chemical treatment. There then remains of the buttermilk with which we started the serum or whey which is an excellent feed for pigs. The casein, treated separately, is convert- ed into a glutinous paste which, dri.. ven by pressure through a wire- drawing plate immersed in a eoagul- ating bath, produces a strong elastic soft fibre of any length required. It is estimated that by next year the factory at Cesano Mademo will have a potential output of 20 tons of synthetic wool per day, and this gi- ves an idea of the great contribution an inventor has made to the solution of one of the most serious economic problems. But to return to textile fibres, a field in which Italian inventive pow- er has obtained brilliant results is that of procuring wool from milk. The production of rayon had to a great extent solved the problem of p'oviding a substitute for cotton, but there remained the urgent and seri- ous problem arising from our inade- quate supplies of wool, as the defiei... ency of our home output had to be met by large imports entailing grave economic drawbacks, due to the fact that the Anglo-Saxon market has practically monopolized the world's supply. As regards petrol substitutes, a whole series of initiatives and pro" posals Show that the solution of this problem cannot be far off; indeed, results already obtained are in some cases quite astonishing. Although facts clearly show that the solution of carburation is being sought for chiefly by the use of alcohol which lcan be distilled in such large quan- 1ities from plants grown in Italy, where also there is an almost Perma- nent over-production of wine, never- theless combustibles which produce gas are also of great importance. It would seem that sanctions have shown that standard eleven thousand calory petrol is really not essential for running motors. The gasolene engines now burn straw, olive pits, shavings, chestnut husks, seaweed and agricultural waste products of all kinds. It seems almost impossible that such diverse and poor materials should be a source of such pure and abundant power. But engineers, who know that one calory only, the smal.. lest quantity of heat practically me.. asurable, equals 327 kilograms of power, are not surprised at the fact. It is especially in the field of me- chanics that inventive efforts are being made and it is hoped that in the near future a large number of engines, injectors, pumps and acces- sories of all kinds will be manufac- tured on Italian patents. An engine run by the heat of solar rays has been designed; and a candle with a quartz insulator will at last free Italy from the need of making ex-. pensive imports of kaolin and insu- lating porcelain. In the field of scientific instru.. ments, calculating, statistical and cyphering machines, ete., and machi. nes for testing building material we also find many important patents. Lastly, innumerable inventions have been made connected with building materials, hoisting machines, and all sorts of equipment and accessories. Moreover, besides g6bS0gen011s pro- ducts, devices, tests, studies and wonderful trials are being made with other petrol substitutes such as ear. cium carbide, compressed methan gas, hydrogen and ammonia. There are also many very promising kinds of alcoholic combustibles, and the devices for the production and utili- sation of hydrated ethyl alcohol have made such progress that the use of this substitute alone pr mixed with petrol or benzole is now quite safe. In agriculture, Italian inventors have given remarkable proof of skill and geniality: machines for improv- ing stony soil, for sowing and spre- ading fertilizer, for tilling land economically and for utilising waste material. A machine that cuts and softens straw for fodder; another that makes a straw substitute where straw is lacking; pasteurising ma- chines and apparatus for making flour from bananas and all kinds of fruit. These efforts made last few months rafUrt We may also note that our inven- tors have made such progress with the polymerism of acetylene that the production of synthetic benzole now seems very near. efforts made during the months reflect only a part Roma,5.

In this di- lemma after profound meditation he did as follows: In two weeks the man came cry- ing: "O Mighty Master of Mysteries! Thou who hast made all the wonders of the world, take again the woman that thou gavest me; she teases, tan- talizes and tires me; and I cannot live with her any more." But in two weeks the man came again crying, "Give me back the woman that thou madest; I cannot live without her." of the contribution Italian inventors have made towards the solution of vital national problems.
