economy employing currently growing producls for power in
slead of producls that were modified and stored by nature. It
I (ullo commonly accented that modern industrial development
hinged upon the utilization of coal and lutcr oil. Those aro vege-
iiidio aim possioiy animal products which developed ages ago
lincl have been modified nnd cnnrlcntrrl hv nniurn
With this view. of Industrial development thero can hardly be
much orlous argument. However, If we can lake all of our carbo
nydrato wastes such a waste wood, cornstnlks, sugar cane, straw,
bamboo, etc., through on Infinite number, ond convert them . to
high grade hydrocarbon product, petroleum might well lose it
Importance unil so-called "have not nations" become "huvo na.
lions" over night. Thero would appear to be none so poor that
limy luiuu inn Kruw some crops lor conversion lo nyuroearbons.
All this is Implied In tho newspaper urtlclo to which I referred
out wnetiier or not the thing is possible remain to be seen. If
It Is, It probably transcends In Importance anything else being
done at tho moment In the research laboratories of the world.
Ten days after the above announcement, there was another
ono In the news by another laboratory, Indicating a new report
edly low-cost method of Impregnating wood with mcthylolurca.
The method consists of dissolving this oruanlc mntorlnl. known
a methylolurcs, in hot water and Impregnating wood with vari
ous amounts, ocpcnmng on wo effects required. Among tho
claims mooo for wood so treated wore a great Increase In hard
ness, increase In resistance to decay, decrease In swelling, shrink
Ing and warping and Increased flro resistance. Also tho impreg
nated wood may be compressed as in tho forest products labora
tory process. 'Ilieso claims, you see, aro not at all modest. Tho
cost Is indicated at 3 i cent to 4 W cents per boord foot. In
lumbermen's Innminae thot would bo S35 to S4 npp thnimnnrl
boiird feet nnd nol high enough to be staggering If the properties
obtained arc as claimed. Some advance information was available
to u prior to tho public announcement to which I referred and
wo iniiiK wen enough of tho proposed treatment to make a
thorough exploration of the process in tho association laboratory
Before the year is out wo hopa to know a great deal more about
methylolureu treatment. My guess is that the announced cost
are for material only and do not Include the cost of impregna
tion and subsequent seasoning and heat treatment. Also it prob
ably ignores the degrades which necessarily occur when dry
material i soaked with water and rcdrled. These degrades can
be very serious or very minor, depending on circumstances.
There Is probably much experimental work still to bo done be-
foro mi process becomes nn accepted part of our economy. ,
