Many of the typical Colifornia
species come north to Oregon,
while many of the Puget Sound
speiies extend south to the Coos
Bay region or a little beyond,
making the area richer in sea
flora than the coast either to
the north or south.
The first report of scientific
studies of these forms of plant

now been published as an Ore

New Wax Found As
Alcohol By-product
P.ecovery of a wax of possible
wide commercial use by the Or
egon Forest Products Laboratory
in research on waste ligntn
from the Springfield alcohol
plant is announced by Dean
Paul M. Dunn, director of the
laboratory at Oregon State col
lege. The laboratory work that
produced the wax was done by
Dr. Ervin F. Kurth, professor of
wood chemistry on the college
and laboratory staff.
Laboratory tests indicate that
about ", percent of the 60 to
"0 tons of lignin produced daily
at the plant can be recovered as
wax by a simple petroleum sol
vent extraction process. This
pleted until this year.
'The collection and study of
marine algae has been a major
research project at the Institute
of Marine Biology at Coos Head,"
I says Dr. E. L. Packard, direc
tor of research at that institute.
'The coasts of California, Puget
Sound and British Columbia had
been previously studied, but no
study of importance had been
made of the Oregon coast until
Dr. Sanborn began collecting in
1926."
After the institute was started
Dr. Sanborn and her students
made systematic collections. The
junior author was one of those
earlier students who later col
laborated in the study of the
collection.
The 66-page monograph will
serve as a guidebook for future
collectors and will form a basis
egion, says Dr. Packard. Of the
188 different species cat aloged,
the largest number belong to the
class of red algae.
would mean an output of about
five tons of wax daily at pre
sent level of operations, assum
ing that all lignin were f rocess
ed in this way. Such an amount,
it is believed, would have an
important bearing on the econ
omics of alcohol production
from wood waste.
A larger extracting unit has
now been installed in the new
industrial laboratory to produce
the nouly found wax in quan
tities for commercial testing.
The wax has a high melting
point and other characteristics
that make it promising for nu
merous commercial uses, says
Dr. Kurth.
Whether making alcohol from
wood waste under normal price
conditions can be continued on
a commercial basis depends
largely on whether enough by
products of commercial value
can be produced to help cover
the cot of the process, Dean
Dunn points out. About one
fourth of wood waste is lignin
which is not used in wood alco
hol making.
Ever since the start of the
Springfield project and the or
ganization of the Forest Prod
ucts laboratory, continuous re
search has been conducted to
ward finding such by-products.
Other results previously an
nounced and now in various
stages of further development
include the recovery of yeast as
stock feed from the stillways
liquor, recovery of gypsum for
use as fertilizer and use of dry,
ground lignin as an extender
for insecticides os ar a soil con
ditioner. Agricultural phases of the re
search are carried on in cooper
ation with the agricultural ex
periment station, while theen-

It will be interesting to see
just how American Communists,
Communist - sympathizers, and
fellow-travelers go about squar
ing the present policy of the
Soviet Union with the old pro-
paganda to the effect that their
particular brand of dictatorship
offers the sole hope for better

When, osme time ago. the Sov
iet Union refued to join in the
Marshall Plan for the rehabilita
tion of Europe, it divided the
world into two opposing camps.
It made united effort for put
ting hungry and destitute peo
ples on their feet, impossible.
It decreed, in efefct, that the
citizens of the small notions
such as Czechoslovakia must di
vorce themselves from all hope
of American assistance on pain
of "displeasing" Moscow and
thereby inviting the kind of ter
rorism that subdued Hungary.
The peoples of these unhappy
countries were not, of course,
given an opportunity to express
teir own wishes in the matter.
It is only in "degenerate" cap
italist nations that the ordinary
citizen has a free ballot, free
speech and a free press. Only
under the obsolete and demo
cratic system can a man work or
not work as he pleases, start a
business, speak his mind, and
go about his affairs without
dread of secret police and drum
head courts and concentration
camps and slave labor. Only
where the laughable institution
of free enterprise exists do the
people control their government
and choose their officials all
the way from town marshal to
the head of the nation.
Communism feeds upon des
pair, starvation, terror. The So
viet high-command has decided
that" these shall be its gifts to
every nation which it can influ
ence and dominate. It is build
ing one of the most brutal sys
tem of slavery in the history of
the world. Here is the totai
