THE NORTHMAN
PARAGRAPHIC BRIEFS FROM
SANDINAVIA.
The Norwegian-American Steam
ship line has contracted for two new
cargo vessels of 500 tons burden
each. They are to be built at Vickers,
Canada, and will be fitted with every
modern equipment. They will burn
oil and are calculated to make-11%
miles with full cargo, The ships are
to be delivered so early in the
autumn 1920, that they can be
chartered in Montreal for Norway
before the season ends.
The department of foreign affairs
of Norway has been reorganized
to meet conditions following the
war. A committee of seven has been
appointed, three and the chairman by
the king and three by the storthing.
H. Bryn, formerly minister of Nor
way at Washington is a member of
the committee.
Mr. Olaf O. Bernts has been ap
pointed Norwegian consul at Chicago
as successor to Consul Herman Gade.
He has been acting consul.
Dr. Sam Eyde is Norway’s first
Minister to Poland. He is an engi
neer by profession. He was elected
member of the house of representa
tives in 1918, was a member of the
Paris delegation and later president
of the Norwegian commercial delega
tion in Poland.
Tormod K. F0rland, an engineer in
Haugesund, has taken out a patent
for a new method of producing non-
carbonaceous molybdenum, extracted
in a simple way from molybdenum
chloride at a .low temperature. Ac
cording to his method the metallic
molybdenum is extracted by electroly
sis from different melted components.
The amalgamation of the molybde
nite industry in Norway is under way,
sixteen companies having allied them
selves with the new organization. The
industry suffered during the war
when practically all export was shut
off. With the return of the steel in
dustry to a stable basis it is expected
molybdenite will be in demand.
An important new enterprise is
being projected at Mold0en in West-

ern Norway. Experimente are being
made in drying split-fish by electrical
processes.
Denmark has issued a temporary
order forbidding the manufacture of
beer containing more than three per
cent of alcohol. The shortage of coal
and the unfavorable condition of the
exchange are given as the reasons
for the order. It does not appear a
very great hardship, however, to the
Dane from this country going over to
pay a visit.
The coal shortage in Denmark has
caused the government to issue an
order fixing the degree of tempera
ture to which churches, theaters, res
taurants and public halls may be
heated, one wholly unexpected good
may result from this order. It may
lead to the discovery of a cure for
sleeping in church.
Cattle buyers from Switzerland are
reported buying heavily in the Danish
markets.
Three Copenhagen theaters will
dispense with orchestra music next
season on account of the renewed
demands of the players for higher
wages.
THE NORTHLANDS.
Prepartions are being made to im
port oil on a large scale in Denmark
to offset the lack of coal. A new oil
port is under construction at Nyborg;
three petrol tanks of 4,000 cubic
meters capacity each are already
completed, and four lamp oil tanks
are nearly finished.
Several large
tanks for fuel oil are also to be
erected. Large pipe lines will con
nect these tank installations with oil
tankers, for which berths will be pro
vided by a mole about 1,300 feet in
length with 30 feet of water on each
side. The most up-to-date machinery
and equipment is being installed.
Malmo and Gothenburg are to be
opened as free ports during the pre
sent year, which with Stockholm,
opened in 1919, will give Sweden
three free ports.
About 70 per cent of the vessels
now under construction in Swedish
shipyards are being outfitted with
oilburning apparatus utilizing the
Diesel motor. Swedish railways are
also experimenting with oil as fuel
in order to reduce the extremely high
operating costs. In a recent trial run
the cost of the oil burned was said to
be only 6 per cent of that of coal.
The Norwegian Red Cross reports
that it has sent 100 carloads of food
and clothing for the relief of Vienna.
The supplies of five of the cars were
used in Chemitz, Saxony, for the re
lief of the people there. Besides food
and garments, 400,000 crowns were
contributed. Food was also sent to
Archangel, and an effort made to
send some to Petrograd. One hundred
French babies were provided with
layettes by the women of the Norwe
gian Red Cross, and 2,000 children
from Vienna were received in Nor
way for a stay of four months.
The postoffice department announ
ces that, beginning May 1, parcel
post packages weighing not more
than 11 pounds and unsealed would
be accepted for Switzerland.
A
transit charge of 10 cents, to be paid
in postage stamps affixed to the
wrappers in addition to the necessary
stamps for postage at 12 cents a
pound, is fixed.
The political upheaval in Finland
has resulted in the formation of a
new ministry by Prof. Erich, leader
of the reconstruction party with him
self as premier, Engineer Magnus
Levonius, minister of transportation
and communication, and national As
semblyman, Raatikainen minister of
the department relating to the neces
saries of life.

det til hende regelmsessigt tre gange

flaske af dette middel og er nu saa
rask som nogensinde.” Dette for-

saa popular som familiemedicin.
