Sun Is Used to Fry Eggs
And Make Cubes of Ice

(AP Feature Writer)
CONCORD, Cal. 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

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.
Inventor Mohr la a former con
sulting engineer for the U. S. bur
eau of mines and holder of many
