May 20. Eth yl as a motor fuel, about which controversy has raged for months, went under the miscroscope today at the public health service with a long line of scientists, doctors and industrial experts in consulta tion to pass on Us merits or dang ers. The primary problem of the con ference was to determine definite ly whether the fumes of the gas are injuries to health and many were on hand to take sides la the debate. Thomas Midsley, Jr., vice-president of the Ethyl Gas Corporation, said his company had experienced trouble with the gas in its early stages of development but that dif ficulties had been overcome and the gas could be handled safely if proper safeguards were taken. Mixture of the ethyl gas with gas oline, he added, presented no dif ficulty if carelessness in the hand ling were reduced to a minimum. NOTICE Baby Parade.
