Tlv human food that can now
be made from wood may not ap
peal to persons desiring to re
duce, but it is otherwise one of
ihe widely used elements in table
diet.
Wliit l i lenient s will constitute
this food from wood were disclos
ed by I r. Friedrieh Heights at the
international conference on bitu
minous coal at the Carnegie histi
t ul e of Technology. He Is t ho
youthful appearing (lerman chem
ist. who has converted wood wast
Into an animal fodder. It is wil
ing In competition In Oerma ny
with uatural fodder. He aho lias
told the conference how wood Is
turned into real coal.
In. r.tTf-ius said that the human
food product that can he made
from wood Is a white substance
that may be described a,s between
slarch and simar. It Is not sweet.
He termed it a pure, flavorless
product rich in edible carbohy
drates, and said il can be turned
into normal glucose.
' "It may be made," he said, "from
the waste cellulose that occurs in
gVcat quantities in wood waste and
such plants as oorn-dalks and cot
ton rUalLs and In the hulls and
shells of nuts.
i "Though we have not convened
thls welltiloee Into human food, II
may be done so readily that food
from It for human consumption Is
now a possibility. To produce this
food It is, roily necessary to remove
the chlorides and some snia II im
purities from the cellulose food
now made for animal fodder."
t sited what varieties of table
products mihi be made from ihe
wood product and what flavors
in f kill be aided. J Jr. ilei'ius I'd
plied: ' "1 do not wish to discuss that,
but only to stale that it is possible
to make mi edible human food." '
lie inid that It has been possible
in Cermauy to demonstrate the
value of the synthetic fodder in a
balanced ration to Improve the
weiuhl of ph:s. lie thought that
this fodder may replace corn aa an

' whatevr advances are made ill
its use are likely to be slow he

, Oil Is highly infla unliable. The

(the Inquiry Into the conditions sur
rounding the leasing of the naval

In one placo than It breaks out
In another.
Itobert W. Stewart, chairman of

acquitted yesterday In the District
