In a modest home In an almond grove, Otto H. Mohr, inventor, Is experimenting at mAklng sunshine do many of the houarhold tasks now performed by gas, oil or electricity. For three years hU refrigerator has yielded Its dolly quota of loe cubea without costing him a cent because he freezes them with sun shine. He can go to a little cabinet exposed to the broiling midsummer sun and draw a glass of cold drink ing water, also sun-cooled. Day and night his solar water heater contains gallons of water hot enough to scald one. And during the last six months he haa occasionally been burning hydrogen gaa obtained, he saya, by breaking up water Into Its com ponent parts hydrogen and oxy gen.

Special Rexall Program outfit occupies less apaos than an office deik and Mohr says It pro duces enough fuel for the average family's cooking needs. Zt utilizes a well known laboratory fact that water can be decomposed by elec trics! action. Such a process is standard at plants that supply tanks of oxygen for hospital use. Mohr's Innovation Is to create this electrlcsl action by sun-power. Old Sol's rsys strike a sheaf of wires arranged In a vacuum globe ana attached to a negative electrical plate. In the cool shade below are some metallic fins attached to positive plate. "The two units together consti tute a thermopile and aet up an electrical current because of thetr different temperatures," Mohr ex plains. "This current decomposes vapor from a tank of water. It is then a simple matter to liberate the oxygen and pipe the lighter hydrogen Into a storage tank. 'The device works as long as the sun shines, storing up gas for use at night or on cloudy nays." Hydrogen Is the gas that filled the Ill-rated dirigible Hlndenburg. For domestic or Industrial uses, it le handled much like ordinary il luminating gna and burns with a blue. Intensely hot flame. University physicists who have hesrd of Mohr's experiment eon- cede the principle of his thermopile is sound, but question that enough electricity can be generated by solar heat to produce hydrogen In usable amounts.
