IN CASE OF SIEGE
HONOLULU (UP) Food is as im
portent as armament to make this
part of America self-sufficient In
event of a siege by an enemy fleet.
Is the opinion of Major-Gen. Hugh
A. Drum. U. S. armv. organizer of
a new branch of the army known
as the service command.
Officers assigned to this command
are detailed to each of the eight
islands of the Hawaiian group to
study food production and consump
tion. At the completion of these pre
liminary studies concrete plans for
emergency farming wilt be formed.
Aiding the army Hi tnis branch of
the service is the federal department
of agriculture's experiment station.
These tests are carried on In devel
oping crops that can be planted
without delay to provide an emer
gency supply of staple vegetables
and fruits if the chief source of
foodstuffs the United States Is cut
off by an enemy blockade.
Under normal conditions Hawaii
has less than two months supply of
foodstuffs on hand. Under the plan
ned system of emergency farming
specially -produced crops would aug
ment this reserve within a few
months of the time they were plant
ed.
Proof of the Islands' dependence
on other parts of the United States
for the greater portion of Its food
is evidenced by the department of
commerce reports showing that dur
ing; the past fiscal year of 1936 the
territory found It necessary to pur
chase for Its civilian population
alone, which numbers nearly 869,000
persons,, 16,896,819 pounds of pota
toes; 1,043,313 pounds of dried beans;
5,553,400 pounds of onions; 1,332,775
pounds of baked beans; $3,000,000
worth of fresh fruits; $3,000,000
worth of fresh and prepared meats;
$734,397 worth of fish, and $1,623,
938 worth of eggs.
In addition to the civilian popu
lation, army and navy forces sta
tioned on the Islands number Ap
proximately 15,600.

AUSTRALIA TIES
DEFENSE LINKS;
ENGLAND HELPS
SYDNEY (UP) Australia la cloaely
following Ore&t Britain's lead In re
armament and the placing of defense
on a more secure footing.
Not only has Australia greatly In
creased defense expenditures and
plans to spend even more, but ar
rangements have also been completed
for the cooperation of commercial
organizations with the defense aur
thorltlea In the event ot war. The
defense department has followed the
ahsdow plan" of the British war of
fice.
Under the principal supply officers'
committee, the department has made
a survey of resources and supplies.
Supply committees have been estab
lished In each state. A survey has
been mads also of foodstuffs and
medical and veterinary supplies. -
With the cooperation of Industrial
lesders, firms contemplating the erec
tion of new factories and plants hsve
conferred with authorities on details
of construction. Industries which have
agreed to cooperate Included, besides
armament and munition firms, en
glneerlng, hardware, and medical con
earns, all forms of stores, chemical
firms and air and transport organt
tatlons. The survey has been con
ducted with the aid. of Individual
firms and not through any organic
ration.
There la a complete plan ot eo
ordination to safeguard Australian
economy during a war, and to provide
for rapid and efficient conversion of
Industrial planta tor defense require
ments. Factories are ready for con
version to supplement government
establishment In the production of
munitions. Development of shale oil
deposits and the establishment of
aircraft and motor engine Industries
sre linked with the plan. Important
developments era to follow consults
tlons between the British ana Aus-
trsllsn governments.
Australia's expenditure on derenee
for the three years ending on Jnue
30 will amount to nearly $115,000,000,
"This smount hss been financed
from revenue," Acting Defense Minis
ter Tborby said. "It It a notable
achievement for the commonwealth,
for It represents a doubling of the
defense vote compared with the pre
ding years. Defense preparation Is
unquestionably the best assurance of
peace, and a reasonable expenditure
within the financial capacity of the
Australian people In this direction
should place the commonwealth In
a position where the fear of unpro
voked aggression Is reduced to a mm
Imum. Finance represents a serious
rroblem to our limited population
for we are financing defense with
money received from taxation, and
not from loan money."

FRENCH SOLVE
FOR WAR USES
PARIS (UP) The problem of fuel
supply for France's modern motor
leed army In time of war has been
solved, according to Charles Baron,
prefect of the Hautes Alpea depart
ment and chief of the powder fac
tories of France.
His statement was made following
s tour of Inspection at the powder
factory of Sevran-Llvry, where Bar
on, accompanied by Edouard U&la
dler, minister of national defense,
General Oamelln, chief of the gen
eral staff, and Oeneral Jacomet, sec
retary ot the war ministry, saw a
successful demonstration of the pro
duction of a synthetic on fuel, a
substitute for gasoline.
The name given to this fuel Is
csrbonlte. It Is produced by a special
process Involving dlstlllstlon ot ehsr
coal In airtight compartments.
The problem ot France's national
defense for a long period has been
In the minds of officials. They res
iles that all the machinery and men
France would assemble in time of
war would be of little use If ths
country were to find Itself without
adequate fuel supply. Further
more, ss Franca receives Its entire
supply of gssollne by sea, a block
ade which might occur In time of
war would rosult In the complete
cutting off of supply.
For many years research has been
carried out In view of producing a
substitute for gssollne, composed
entirely of the country's natural re
sources snd which would not neces
sitate the Import of component
psrts.
France's colonies constitute a great
reserve supply of fuel, but Baron
pointed out that a blockade would
ffect France's colonies as well ss
other countries. "Ons ton of fuel
produced within the country Is worth
far more than 10 tons produced in
the colonies," Is his principle.
ud to consider France's natural
resources, he concluded that carbon.
which could be extracted from the
carbonic acid of the atmosphere,
was the greatest source of supply.
ttesearcn workers used the prlncln e
of Oesogenes. The fact thst 600 grams
Of cnsrcoai produce as much energy
1,300 grams of wood In these
furnaces led Baron to consider op
erating with concentrated charcoal,
which could be expected to give even
better resuita.
Csrbonlte, which finally was ob
tained by this process of distilla
tion, has as msny sdvsntsges over
charcoal ss charcoal has over wood.
While charcoal. If exposed to rain.
absorbs several times Its volume of
a'ster, snd thus Is made unusable.
oarbonlte Is Impervious to water, it
also has the advsntage of being very
hard and virtually -qnbreakabla,
which glvea It a great advantage over
charcoal when transported, as char
coal is extremely brittle. Further
more, carbonlt haa a density 1.000,
therefore It does not necessitate
great volume snd can be transported
sll the more easily, as It does net
sum or spresd coal powder. It also
can he stocked snd kept si moat in

IN WORLD SALE
OF SCRAP IRON
New Orleans Port Hums As
Freighters Depart With
Huge Cargoes Of Metal
For Foreign Armaments.
NEW ORLEANS (UP) Between,
3.000 and 10.000 tons of scrap Iron
are being shipped from this port
every week, according to estimates.
The metal goes to Italy. Japan, Pen
land. Belgium, England, Germany and
Mexico,
Huge piles of scrap Iron, copper,
brass, aluminum and tin cans can
be seen hare one day, but they are
gone the next. Relatively high prices
are being paid by foreign nations
and the Junk business haa brought
boom times to thousands.
Today great combines and syndU
cstea have been organised to handle
the nation's caat-otf metals. These
combines work through the parent
company down to the rag-a-mufflna
of the alleys who wander through
the back streets picking up Iron,
cans, brass snd copper to sell for
a few nlokela to the local agent. The
agent In turn sells It to a trucker.
The trucker hauls It to the com
pany dump and again sells It for a
good profit.
Goes for Armament
The "Junkers" know, snd admit.
thst a great part of the metal they
sell Is going to be used In the man
ufacture of munitions which some
time might be used sgalnst this
country. But. they say, they must
make a living.
Iron la bringing around Oft eenta
a pound In New Orleans. Brass and
copper bring as much as 14 cents.
Aluminum sells for about ths same.
Scrap iron collected from aa far
north and west aa central Oklahoma,
and aa far east as Mobile, Miss.,
eventually reaches ths docks here.
Freight agents are glad to gat car.
goes of scrap for their vessels. Th
rate Is high sa much as til a ton.
and a ton of Iron takes far lesa
apace than a ton of cotton which
pays about ths same rate.
So great has been the demand for
tin In Italy that one enterprising
dealer sold a load of dismantled
texl-csb doora to the Italian gov
ernment. The doors were losded Into
an Italian freighter without having
the wood, upholstery or broken glsss
removed.
Iron Is Conditioned
Solid "chunk" Iron brings ths best
price. Before being loaded aboard a
freighter the metal must be "con
ditioned." Conditioning consists ot
cutting the metal into pieces not
more than five feet long, 18 Inches
wide and 18 Inches thick. Steel rails,
ship plates, railroad wheels and
parts, form the most lucrative Items
of the trade, but Iron bolts, discard
ed nails, pipes, radiators, all go Into
making up a full cargo tor a freighter.
Particularly pleased are ship agents
when they ean carry a full cargs
ot scrap. One voyage out of New
Orleans to Japan paid 180.000 tn
freight rates. Such cargoes an lead
ed by the shipper, with freightage
paid by .the consignee. The consignee
also unloads the cargo.
Rising foreign prices have mad
It posslbls for ths "Junker" to sal
vage many Iron objects formerly not
considered worth the effort. One
dealer bought an old war-time Iron
ship, weighing about 100 tone. The
vessel had never been completed,
had been towed Into the Rlgolets
below New Orleans and used aa
quarters for a bridge erew. Later the
dismantled ship burned. Be realised
- profit of about 8800 on the ship.
He purchased It cheap, cut It up.
hauled It to the dump and sold It
aa No. 1 Iron.
Tin Cant Compressed
Tin cans are being hauled from
municipal trash heaps and smashed
by a giant compressor Into compact
suit-case -sire parcels tor cargo. The
tin brings a high price In foreign
nations.
A compressor for such work coats
sbout $30,000 and must have a tre
mendous market to enable the oper
ator to show a profit for Its opera
tion. Foreign msrkets are paying aa high
ss $17.60 a ton for New Orleans Iron
and steel. Prices for copper snd
brass sre bsaed on the need of the
nation buying the material. Fabulous
tales have been told of prices ob
tained for a cargo of brass for use
In ths manufacture of cartridge
cases.
