M r . Nelson s a i d : To meet the goals in 1944 will require full usage of all facilities for industrial alcohol production, including beverage alcohol plants. The steps which are being taken to ensure availability of alcohol for all essential war purposes include: 1. Attempting to secure suitable and sufficient raw materials for alcohol-producing plants, notably molasses from the Caribbean for the Gulf Coast and East Coast industrial plants and corn for the grain alcohol plants. 2. Expediting the completion of new grain alcohol plants which are now under construction. 3. Securing maximum production from present facilities by means other than those listed in 1. 4. Having the British resume the production of alcohol, using Caribbean molasses which would be shipped in place of the present Lend-Lease industrial alcohol commitments to Britain for war production. 5. Attempting to secure imports of alcohol from the Caribbean if it proves impracticable to obtain proper amounts of blackstrap molasses because of its consumption in new Caribbean distilleries. 6. Tightening the allocation of alcohol. 7. Preparing against the contingency of grain shortages in the United States in 1945 by developing suitable projects to produce alcohol from nongrain materials such as petroleum gases and wood wastes or from Canadian wheat supplies or projects to produce from other sources certain materials which now require alcohol. . I t is anticipated that the alcohol situation will remain tight as long as the rubber program needs ail-out production from the plants which make butadiene from alcohol. These plants are expected t o operate at a t least 150% of rated capacity during much of 1944, T h e most recent Careful control and planning of the alcohol program must be continued to insure against a potentially critical situation ahead.

estimates of the Rubber Director call for 50% more alcohol in the first half of 1944 than had been envisaged in the original program.

These facts, together with the prediction that the return of natural rubber following the war will not impede progress of synthetic, were brought out by R. K.

Barton substituted scientific control for rule-ofthumb practices. He was the first in the American glass industry to use a polariscope to detect imperfections in glass. As early as 1897 he developed precise volumetric standards for calibration of pharmaceutical glassware which are still in use. Barton developed the formulation of the glass known as Nonsol which was used in the manufacture of the only resistant chemical glassware available in the United States during the first World War, when European sources -were cut off.

Called one of the most important techni cal achievements of the war by the WPB, the manufacture of magnesium under high vac uum has greatly increased production during the past year. Applied to penicillin, a highvacuum diffusion process is speeding Amer ica's output, with signs pointing to a suf ficient supply for the armed services and civilians alike by spring. Plans now in the making call for high-vacuum applications to several other war-important industries. Although high vacuum has been used be fore on a limited scale in the manufacture of vitamins and electronic tubes, it has never been applied industrially to the extent that is now possible, with entire factories placed under air pressures 100,000 times less than normal pressure. When this is done, chemi cal and physical reactions unheard of at normal pressures become industrial realities. Industrial vacuum diffusion purnps with enormous capacities for exhausting air and other gases must be used to maintain such extremely low air pressures throughout the thousands of feet of pipes, valves, retorts, and condensers that are used in a magnesium plant. National Research Corp., plants of the Ford Motor Co., and the New England Lime Co. are now in production with mag nesium and most of the largest penicillin manufacturers have adopted the vacuum dif fusion process for dehydrating this drug. Under WPB sponsorship several large operators undertook to produce magnesium by the thermal reduction of dolomite with ferrosilicon. The whole success of this pro gram hinged on the use of extremely low pressures on a scale never before obtained. Early experimental work was undertaken by National Research, and on the basis of that performance the Defense Plant Corp. awarded the company a contract t o build a pilot plant for magnesium production under high vacuum. I n the record-breaking time of four and a half weeks, t h e plant produced its first run, and the resulting metal was ac claimed by government officials as "the best seen to date".
