j of tetra ethyl lead as being a
Rood additive to fuel to increase
' Uie efficiency of the gasoline mo-
j tor. It should be of Interest to
observe Hint this development orig-
' Inated with an automobile manu-
facturer who was producing en
i gtnes and not with the refiners
who were producing fuel. After the
automobile manufacturers said
! "this is the type of fuel we wish
to use In our motors" then It was
up to the oil Industry to turn Its
1 efforts toward this type of produc
. Hon and It is quite possible that
many an old time reliner gi'unv
bled at the new fancied notions
Nevertheless the oil Industry by
necessity hod to apply the new
idea to its fuel production and so
the next steps taken were to eval.

In fuels and to examine the avail
able fuels without the lead com.
pound from the standpoint of view
of detonation and compression
pressure. Different fuels showed
different responses to the same
amount of tetra ethyl led. This
act the petroleum refiners off on
a search for two kinds of fuels,
one kind that had a high natural
efficiency because of its inherent
nntl'knock character, and another
that would respond most reudl
y to small amounts of lead. Both
bunts succeeded to a remarkable
degree, and today we have both
extraordinarily efficient synthetic
fuels and others that yield readily
to minimum additions of tetral
ethyl lead.
Research, however cannot rest
alter discovering a product, It
must follow through and follow
every step and reaction that comes
from the applied use of the idea
in actual practice. Tills brings us
to the next step which developed
when treated fuel was used on a
fair scale in automobile engines.
It was discovered that while tetra
ethyl Had overcame the "ping" In
the engine a new problem ap

Tetra ethyl lead therefore by Itself
was a failure but science did not

could bo prevented if the fuel In
cluded a broiuluo compound along
with the tetra ethyl lead. The ad

with the exhaust and the spark

the producers going to obtain
enough bromine for the new fuel.
Everyone was concerned because
the huge amount of bromine re.
quired for this new field was en
llrely out of proportion to any
amount that had previously been
produced in the world. The only
use for bromine compounds up to
this time had been In medicine
as sedatives. In photography, and
In certain chemical preparations.
The production of elemental bro
mine before 1920 was only about
2,000 tons a year for the entire
world. If any substantial propor.
tion of American gasoline produc-
tlon was to be treated, the scljn-
tlsts realized that this alone would
require at the very beginning
many times over the total world
production of bromine. The ques-
tion therefore that faced them was
where could they find such enor.

deposits of minerals conhiinng It
One possible source was sea water
and so science directed Its Uen
tion to the sea.
The first effort to mine the
oceans used a process of preclpf
fating bromine out of sea water
in the compound rorm known as
trlbromoanlllne, (trl-b r o m o-anl-
llne). This very Insoluble com
pound Is formed from the small
amount of bromine in sea water
by adding to it chlorine, sulfuric
acid, and aniline. The process
operated In a chemical plant built
upon a ship, one of the surplus
War Shipping Board vessels left
over from World Wnr I. The Ethyl
Gasoline grcup at General Motors
cooperated with the Du Pont engi
neers in devising a plant that could
be built on a ship. The ship would
take in sea water, convert its bro
mine content to an insoluble com
pound, filter this compound out of
the water, and then return the
spent debormlnated water to the
ocean without contaminating the
plant's Intake of fresh sea water.
Such a plant on the ship could
move to different parts of the
ocean and operate where the
greatest return could be realized.
It likewise avoided problems of
pollution that often plague chemi
cal plants that have neighbors.
and It minimized the work of
pumps required since the lift ol
the sea water would be only two
or three feet for the entire pro
cessing operation. This plant, how
ever, was not too successlul, but

He has handled himself In such a

When sin-thing does go sour, It's
hlnmrd on his subordinates, never

has been so good he must be

agree with his programs or his
vision or his wisdom as ono
of the best politicians in American
history.
Unfortunately for the Republi
cans, while they plan to run on

one third more money this year
than last. Six out of every seven
corporations so far reporting their
net profit after taxes in the first
nine months of this vear show in

1954.
Some have more than doubled
their earnings. Many have set all
time highs for the period. A num

on the strength of their excellent
showings.
These conclusions are drawn
from a study of the earnings state

small, repiesenting most major in
dustries. Combined the 451 corporations
had ti'. 501,011. 121 In profits left
over after setting aside that much
or more for payment of V, S. cor
porate Income taxes. In the first
nine months of 1954 the same 451
companies had combined profits of
$4,934,023,339.
This year's gain over last was
32.9 per cent. In the 1954 peyod
many businesses were touching
bottom ot a mild recession, but
even so corporate profits for the
entire year of 1954 managed to pull
ahead ol 1953 by four per cent.
Only 62 of tne 451 reported small

Five of the 451 operated at a loss.
In the 1954 period 18 of the same

HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK ifl Today's suc
cess story:
Tennessee Williams, who once
wrote purely from hunger, has be
come one or the golden boys of
the American writing scene.
He has been so successful that
his friends have given him a new
nickname: "Tennessee Millions."
At 41 the prolific author has
turned out nine full-length plays,
a volume of verse, two volumes
of short stories, and a collection
of a dozen shorter plnys called
"Twenty-Seven Wagons Full ol
Cotton."
He has completed for Para
mount Pictures a film script of
"The Rose Tattoo," starring Burt
Lancaster and Anna Magnani
It Is the third of his dramas he
has adapted for the movies and
Ills "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" is
a top Brondway hit.
Most successful people credit
their rise to hard work. Williams
lecls that his own lame came, In
large measure, from the revolt
stirred in him by his discovery of
poverty and what It did to people.
Born In the Episcopal rectory of
his grandfather in Columbus.
Miss., he moved at the age of 12
to St. Louis, where his father
worked as a salesman for a shoe
firm. The family lived in one of
a row of ugly brick apartment
buildings "the color of dried blood
and mustard."
In Uie soulh the young writer
had been unaware of any distinc
tions based on wealth.
"But." he soys, "we suddenly
discovered there were two kinds
of people. The rich and the poor,
and that we belonged more to the
latter.
"If I had been born to this situ
ation I might not have resented
It deeply. But It was forced upon
my consciousness at the most sen
sitive age ol childhood."
Tlic shock resulted in a rebel
lion and a socihI consciousness '
which Williams leeLs still marks
most ot Ins writing. But the shock
paid off well.
"I am glad that I received this i
bitter education." Williams once
wroie. "lor I don't think any
writer has much purpose back of
him unless he leels bitterly the
Inrquilies of the society he lives
In
'I have no acquaintance w-ith
political and social dialectics. If
you ask what my politics are, I
am a Humamtannit."

name? He picked it out himself.

The 44 railroads In the sampling
had particularly pleasant results to

The 30 utilities had a combined
Increase of 9 per cent continuing
the slow but steady gains of this
growing hut regulated industry.
The 374 Industrial corporations in
the list show a combined Increase
In profits of 33.6 per cent over the
first nine months of 1954.
Most spectacular gain was made
by the group of seven coal com
paniesup 181.3 per cent this year.
Steel companies showed striking
gains. The 31 in the group aver
aged 84.9 per cent higher, with
many doing much better than the
average. The nonferrous mining
and melalworking companies

elded was pretty awful, under his
birth name Thomas Lanier Wil
liams. "I felt the name had been com
piomlsed," he says, "so I changed
it to Tennessee Williams, the Justi
fication being mainly that the Wll
llamses had fought the Indians for
Tennessoe and I had already dis
covered that Ihe life of a young
writer was going to be something
similar to the defense of a stock
ade against a band of savages."
A depression product, it took
Willjams seven years to earn a
college degree. Twice his health
broke down in years during which
he worked all day and wrote most
of the night. He held such odd
jobs as elevator operator, waiter,
cashier, shoe firm clerk, teletype
operator and movie usher.
"But there was never a mo
ment when I did not find life, to
be Immeasurably exciting to ex
perience and witness," he recalls,
"however difficult It was to sus
tain." His bread crumb days ended

Williams now can aflord to
travel anywhere In the world and
write where he pleases. An as
sociate recently said:
"The first money Tennessee
earned as a writer was $25 for
three sonnets. Now he gets at

Begin Tests
LAS VEGAS, Nev. (UPl Atom
ic scientists began "tafety" tests
in the field today to find out
whether a nuclear weapon can be
exploded accidentally.
The Aiomic Energy Commission
refused to disclose the times of the
tests on the Nevada proving
ground. It said the blasts, if any
occur, "probably won't be seen or
heard" in Las Vegas, about 7!i
miles away.
Scientists said that laboratory
tests have convinced them that
atomic weapons can not be trig
gered accidentally by fire, explos
ion or other mcand. The field tests,
labeled "strictly routine" by the
A EC, will involve no military,
civil defense or other observers.
Tho AEC said the tiniest atomic
devices ever used since atomic
tests began at the proving ground
four years ago will be involved in
the current "safety" series, an
nounced Oct. 10 in Washington. D.
C. The AEC said if there are a
"few nuclear detonations" they
probably will be measured by
"tons" of TNT. Kilotons 'equiva
lent to 1,000 tons of TNT i have
been used previously in describing
the size of detonations.
"If there should happen to be a
nuclear explosion, it would be of
low caliber," one AEC spokesmnn
said. "No radioactive fallout prob
lem is anticipated outside the test
area."
While the AEC maintained of
ficial silence on all but the barest
details of the tests, some nuclear
experts viewed the scries as re
flecting the AEC's concern with
the growing stockpile of atomic
weapons in '.he country the nation
nuclear arsenal may number in
five figures, ha experts estimated.

Filipinos Choose Sides
For Hot Senate Election
MANILA W Filipinos, who love
a rousing fight whether in the cock
pit, ring or political arena, are
choosing sides in the hottest sen
atorial election campaign of the
nine-year-old republic.
At stake are the popularity of
their flamboyant young president,
Ramon Magsaysay, the political
climate during nis next two years
at the nation's helm and the
warmth of U.S.-Philippine rela
tions. Hordes of candidates are fight
ing for nine scats in the 24-nian
Senate. Senators are elected nation
wide. Balloting is next Tuesday.
With tne campaign in its seventh
week, political arguments have
been blamed for at least 12 deaths.
Troops have been moved into li
potentially critical provinces.
The big fiahl swirls around Mag
saysay's ellort to bounce his se
verest foreign policy critic, Sen.
Claro M. Recto.
Magsaysay won the first round.
He seized firm control of the Na
cionalista party machinery in Aug
ust and blocked Recto from the
slate.
Shut out In his own party. Recto
breathed defiance, denounced Mag
saysay as a dictator and found a
berth as "guest candidate" on the
ticket of the Liberals, the main
opposition paity.
With nationwide balloting for
senators, Magsaysay has to drive
Recto all the way down oclow ninth
place to keep him oui of the Sen
ate. - The job Is a big one too big
even for a president of Magsay
say's immense popularity, most of
his opponents and supporters agree.
But Magsaysay bluntly announced
he would stuk? his political future
on the outcome.
Almost from the day Magsaysay
took ollice. Recto stormed at him
for cuddling too close to the U.S.
foreign policy line. Magsaysay won
on issues time after time.
But Recto in his campaign has
soft-pedaled foreign policy differ
ences and attacked Magsaysay as
a dictator. That has vote appeal,
has won support In both major
parties.
