Will Continue Work On Synthetic Fuels Supplement Nation Dwindling Reserves 1 I Washington, Nov. 2d — ill’* ~ The federal government was ready to go ahead with its 330,mm,iimi five year • xperimental program to develop synthetic fuels to supplement this country's declining ml reserves. Interior secretary Harold L Ii k-s said the government now has all the necessary experimental plants to carry out the program' as a result of the acquisition by the bureau ot mines of the 317,-1 fiim.imn Missouri ordnance plant mar laiulsiana. Mo. The plant made synthetic am | inonia during the war It now will be converted into a demonstration plant for the production of oil and gasoline from coal and lignite The plant is within easy access of I major coal producing slates and 1 all types of coal will be tested. Ickes said n< w buildings and equipment will be added o that T S. research workers also will be able to test the wartime discovevies of German scientists who I made big strides in the develop ment of synthetic ftt'-ls. Their discoveries w-re confiscated by the Invading Allied armies He said Ami-riean develop | tnents in synthetic fuel pin* new German discoveries will make this ; <-ountry's program ‘the most mod-1 ern and efficient yet known." The Geimans were unable to j use th'-ir discoveries themselves, l hr said. liecause critical shortages : of gasoline'and oil mad' it impossible for them to shut down , their plants long enough to mod- ' cruize their equipment. On>- German proc-ess which will | be tested by American researchers , yielded up to 70 or Rd gallons of gasoline from a ton of coal in addition to supplying ail the power i and heat for the processing plant. This gasoline was Germany's chief source of aviation fuel. Another process which was used most widely in Germany yielded about Hie same amount of gasoline or oil per ton ami resulted in a superior grade of diesel fuel It also was used to produce synthetic rubber, alcohol, fatty acids, soaps and edible fats Mich as margarine. Ickes said synthetic fuels cannot be produced as < lieaply as natural petroleum but that the research program is expected to result in a sharp drop in cost. The Missouri plant is the fourth acquired by the government for its synthetic fuel program. ft I ultimately will employ from 250 I to 325 worker*.
