NEWELL Sadaharu Selno, 7, bachelor resident of the Tulelake center, was found hanging by a sling made from itorn strips of his overalls early (Friday morning in ward X of the project hospital. ' He was administered artificial respiration and a heart stimu lant which failed to revive him and Seino was pronounced dead at 12:50 a. m. He was found shortly after midnight. About 3 p. m. Thursday, Selno had swallowed the con tents of a bottle of lysol which he had purchased from the co operative canteen. He was later removed to the hospital where his stomach was pumped out. A search of his apartment made by WRA police revealed two notes in Japanese, indicating intention of suicide. His room mates said he had been despond ent for some time. In one of these notes, Seino asked to be remembered to his friends in Marysville, Calif. Deputy Coroner Buck Seaver of Modoc county was called by the WRA. This is the first sui cide since January 1, 1944. E A $45,000 damage suit against Ewauna Box company ended Thursday morning in circuit court with the granting of a motion by the defense for in voluntary non-suit. The motion was granted by Circuit Judge David R. Vandenberg at the close of a civil jury trial lasting two and a half days. The damage suit was filed ome time ago against the lum ber company by Thomas J. An nereau, administrator of the estate of Ralph T. Woods, de ceased. Woods, according to court testimony was found dead bout a year ago at his work, while employed by Ewauna. At the end ot the two and a half days' testimony, Circuit Judge Vandenberg granted the motion for non-suit and dis missed the Jury on several grounds, one of which being that the plaintiffs had failed to prove the cause of Wood's death or that his death had come about through any negligence on the part of the lumber com pany. ; Attorneys for the plaintiff were Ben Anderson ot Portland and J. C. O Neill and the de fense attorney was Richard B. Maxwell. 2 FOR PROMOTION WASHINGTON, May 19 JP) Two of the men who have direct ed some of the heaviest blows against the Japanese in the Faci' fic were nominated today by President Roosevelt for higher ranks for the duration of the war. Vice Admiral Marc A. Mits- cher. who directed aerial activity in the Solomons during hottest phases of the campaign there was nominated for promotion to the rank which he now holds on a temporary basis. Hitscher, who was last report ed commanding a task force in the Pacific, was skipper of the aircraft carrier Hornet when planes took off from her decks to bomb Tokyo. Rear Adm. John H. Hoover who commanded air forces in the successful invasion of the Mar shall islands was nominated also for a duration rank of rear admiral. Mitscher, born in Hillsboro, Wis., now maintains his official residence at Oklahoma City. Hoover, a- native of Seville, O., has his official residence in Great Falls, Mont. Collecting spider webs for use in precision instruments is one of the jobs of the British women's auxiliary. More than one-half million people in England and Wales are named Smith. The Thames river loses 30, 000,000 gallons of water by evaporation on hot days. DANCE Every Sat. Nite F.O.E. Hall 9th and Walnut 9:00 to 1:00 Sponsored by Awl No. 2090 F.O.C Auxiliary and Drum Corps Estin Kiger's Orchestra PUBLIC INVITED Peacetime Success of Wood To Alcohol Process Hinges On Sale, Use of Lignin By ALBERT HERMANN In Charge Wntnn Pin Laboratory (Editor's Note: This is the third of a scries of articles on new uses of forest products). Ethyl alcohol, high protein yeast and sugar from wood have been much in the news recently, culminating in the proposal to build a 400-ton daily capacity conversion plant at bpriiiKfield. Ore. According to people wno snouicl Know, tne cost of producing alcohol from wood by the Schollcr process is of the order of 20 cents a gallon, although estimates vary from about 18 to 25 cents. That from grain is more expensive, that from molasses is cheaper. Alcohol can also be made from petroleum but what the costs are, I do not know. Under war-time demands, when costs are apparently of no consequence, alcohol from wood is probably entirely prac tical. Under peace-time demands, alcohol irom blackstrap molasses probably would put alcohol from wood out of business, unless over-all de mands for ethyl alcohol greatly exceeded those of pre-war days, and thus kept prices above cost of producton from wood. Other factors than direct cost of alcohol by U itself, however, might affect the picture. Let's examine the Scholler process for a moment. Wood of almost any species is chipped and run into converters. A weak solution nf culrthiirir. Hermann acid under rather critical conditions of tempera ture and pressure is percolated over these chips for some hours, resulting in conversion of the cellulose in the wood to a watery solution of glucose. This glucose is used as a feeding medium for yeast, that is, it is fermented, after which the resultant alcohol is separated by distillation. If stock food is required rather than alcohol, selected strains of high protein yeast are employed and the yeast then used for feed. After conversion, there is left in the converters nearlv half the original weight of the wood in the form of rather finely divided lignin plus a small amount of unconverted cellulose and varying percentages of other materials. It is in this residue that the ultimate commercial success of alcohol from wood apparently lies. Again I am told by experts in the process, that if as much as 2 cents a pound could be realized for the lignin, it would pay for the process and income from alcohol would be all velvet. What then, are the possibilities of utilizing lignin? Manv, but almost without exception they are still just "over the horizon." Plastics appear to be the best bet, but those made from lignin, to date, seem to lack some of the desirable properties found in other plastic materials. Some use has been made of 'lignin in road binders, but so far as I know, no one has proposed a use that would pay 2 cents a pound for lignin in the enormous quantities in which it would be available if we made sizeable quantities of ethyl alcohol. The ultimate commercial success of ethyl alcohol from wood; therefore, would seem to hinge on lignin research. (Tomorrow Compregnated Wood) ' Trf Humane Society Notes Interesting Stories About Klamath Animals and Efforts in Their Behalf -By Ida Memyer Odelr- By JEAN BINGAY YOUNG I am copying Will Judy's radio talk No. 17 for you this week, as I am sure that it has many pointers for all of us, and that we will welcome anything that gives us a better under standing of our pets. He calls it the "Code of Communication Between Dog and Master," and it is as follows: "Dogs try to please. Never punish your dog for disobedi ence unless you are certain he understood clearly what you commanded him to do. "Alas! Often we expect too much of a dog. He does not un derstand words as such, but discerns the varying tone of your voice. In his mind, there are only two basic ideas that you are pleased with him; that you are displeased with him. "The great difference between man and all the lower animals is the ability of man to talk, to code ideas by the use of words. But the dog comes nearest to breaking down this barrier. He is nearest able of all animals to communicate with humans and to understand the moods of the human. In fact he understands us better than we understand him. "Your dog senses whether you are glad or sad; he knows when you wish to be left alone; he can discern quickly whether you are in a good mood or surly. "Between the dog and his master there is a comradship which produces a code of com munication from one to the other that these two can under stand. "I can be alonB with my dog for hours, not having spoken a word to him; nevertheless we have communicated our moods to each other during the si lence. "There is nothing more ex pressive in this world than a dog s tail unless it is a worn- an s smile. Now for a good story: A fancier had two dachs hunds. Returning home on one occasion he found them on his couch of exauisite uoholslerv. He whipped the dogs and drove tnem out. The next evening, when he came home, the dogs were lying on the floor. But he placed his nana on tne couch and found that it was warm from their bodies. Therefore he whipped the dogs again and put them outsme. The third nieht. returning little earlier than usual, the fancier found the dogs sitting before the couch, blowing on it to cool it om History does not relate what he did on that occasion, but who will say that dogs are not intelligent? Of course, I am not vouching for the truth of this story. FOILED BY FBI PORTLAND.
