LUJjlLH I H -ft KEN EVERY SATURDAY NITE Mtulo hy OREGON HILL BILLIES STRICTLY BUSINESS by McFeattera ccp r "Wt havo a couplt of rugi coming in that aro Guaranteed Orlontals," Synthetic Rubber System Hod AH Elements of a Thriller-Except Blonde (Editor's Note: This Is the third of four ankles on Amer ica's war-tlmo rubber problem ) By JAMES MAHLOW and WILLIAM PINKEHTON WASHINGTON, Aug. 27 (Wide World) The tale of Wac law Szukiewlcz had all tho ele ments of an international mys tery thriller except tho beauti ful blonde. Tho things Hint happened af ter Leon Henderson crossed the Pole's trail havo been, says tho hard-boiled prlco control man, "of an E. Phillips Opponhclm nature and it was really some thing of a governmental romance In a way." Tho story had secret formulas for making synthetic rubber, spies and sleuths, Invasion and heartache, hurried flight from homo, diplomacy and tho fren zied undercover battle of gov ernments for a precious nsset. Skotchy Outline But it was all only part of this country's search for a way to make synthetic rubber needed to repluco our dwindling stocks of natural rubber whoso supply was cut off when tho Japanese seized our Far East sources. Only tho sketchiest outlines of the Polo's tnlo have been told: When tho Germans rolled through Poland nt tho start of tho war they seized, among that country's other assets, Poland's Important plant for making rub ber out of a process Involving ol coliol. Hut tho Inventor of tho process, Szukluwicz, who had worked tirelessly sinco 1020 to find tho chemical keys, had slip ped across tho border and es caped to France. Sent to Italy Tho life of Szuklcwicz was Im portant for ho alono knew the catalyst which made the process work. Tho name of tho catalyst had never been written clown. Ho carried it in his head. In that year of 1030 the French were trying to nppcaso Mussolini so they sent Szuklcwicz to Italy, to glvo away his formula for making rubber. Tho scientist was in Italy when II duce de clared war on France and on patriotic Poles in 1D40. Ho es caped Italy and went to Rio do Janeiro. It was spring of 1041 when tho refugee Count Tarnowskl of tho Polish foreign office asked William B. Lacy, Unison man in Washington for Leon Hender son's defense set-up, if the Unit ed States would be Interested in a formula for making synthetic rubber. Tho formula was given Lacy by another Pole In New York. Koy Mining Agrlculturo department chem ists pored over the chemical blueprints but key parts includ ing tho catalyst were missing. Lacy wont back to see tho count. They turned tho slow wheels of diplomacy to bring Szuklcwicz from Itlo to New York, Ho ar rived Just before Pearl Harbor, lie was secretive but ho final Iv invn hiR ttlaiiH entire to triv. crnmcnt chemists, Including tho catalyst. Now, finally, thcro Is pending II proposal to construct a small lilllnt liuittis Iho Ptl'i'a mi'llinH but at this time of wartime se crecy over vital processes, the government is unwilling to dis ci ore figures showing what part his process will play In tho man- uiiieiuro or synthetic rubber, Meantime, the agriculture de partment's research laboratory at Peoria. III., and private iii4,-ii,-ifM tinvn hi.nn 1,4 urnrlf seeking ways to mako tho rub- oer irom larrn products. Until last January tho pro gram revolved almost entirely around ono raw material pe troleum. The picture has changed. So far tho synthetic rubber program has a planned capacity of 870,000 tons. Of that total 200.00(1 Ions havo ht.t.n signed to rubber from alcohol manufactured from grain and other agricultural products. Indifference The rubber companies, which actually must make tho tires and other finished products, say it Is a matter of Indifference to them whether tho butadiene compon ent of synthetic rubber comes from petroleum, coal, natural gas or alcohol and that they havo no preference between grain alcohol and industrial al cohol. Ho long as the butadiene is uniform, the rubber will bo the same. Technicians seem to think now that, from a chemical view point, butadiene can be made equally well from petroleum and from alcohol. But men liko Senator Norris of Nebraska and Senator Gil lette of Iowa had charged that largo business interests dominat ed iho original consideration of synthetic rubber production. Difference of Opinion Thcro is great difference of opinion on the cost and use of critical materials in building the synthetic rubber plants. Alcohol process advocates say it lakes a much more critical material (such as steel and cop per) to build a plant for making butadiene from petroleum. The petroleum people deny this. It seems generally agreed that 15 to 18 months will be needed to get the petroleum-using plants into operation, although Eugene Houdry claims to havo a petrol eum process which could be brought Into production In far less time. Tho alcohol people say their plants could be operating in six to 10 months, and this view now seems to bo accepted by WPB. There aro Indications that, if tho synthetic rubber program is further expanded beyond the planned 870,000-ton capacity, rnoro alcohol plants might be in cluded.
