PUTS MOTOR FUEL PLAN UP TO CONGRESS Henry Ford Suggests Use of Alcohol to Supplant Gasoline. CORN MARKET IN VIEW DETROIT, Mich., Jan. 30.—Henry Ford today authorized the Detroit Titans to transmit to members of Congress his suggestion that they give their immediate attention to the vital question of the future supply of fuels for use in combustion engines, principally automobile motors. In an interview, Ford said that at such a time as now, when farmers throughout the country have millions of bushels of corn on hand and with no prospect of a market for the produce, Congress should turn its attention to the manufacture of commercial alcohol. WOULD SUPPLANT GASOLINE WITH A LCOHOL. “With these millions of bushels of corn in the hands of the farmers, *and with the country stocked with food enough to last for the next five years, I suggest to Congress that manufacturing plants be established about the country for the making of commercial alcohol, to take the place of the fast diminishing supply of gasoline,'’ he said. “Congress is in a position to pass the necessary legislation to permit of the establishment of these manufacturing points and I take this means of citing to our Senators and Congressmen a grave situation. “Such a manufacture of commercial alcohol would have at least two results, which would make it worth while,” said Mr. Ford. “First, it would create a substitute for shale oil products, which, when they are exhausted, will not be created again until the earth experiences another upheaval, if ever; and, second, it will create a market for the farmer, whose corn is now a drug on the market. OFFERS CONGRESS USE OF ALCOHOL. “It is my desire that this situation be brought to the attention of members of Congress. In event of action on their part, I will be pleased to offer them the use of my laboratory, together with any suggestions I may have relative to the manufacture of commercial alcohol.” The possibility that the present prohibition laws might deter the establishment of such commercial alcohol piants was suggested to Mr. Ford, but his reply was that the introduction of a dash of kerosene into the .alcohol would kill any use it might have as a beverage.— Copyright, 1922, by International News Service.

REPUBLICANS TO PUSH PASSAGE OF DEBT BILL Limit Debate on Measure to Twenty Minutes Today. WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—1f enough Senators are able to dig themselves out of their snowbound residences, Republican leaders hope to secure the passage by the Senate today of the foreign debt refunding bill. By unanimous consent each Senator is to be restricted after 3 p. m. t<r twenty minutes debate on the bill, and to ten minutes debate on any proposed amendment. Despite the latitude for discussion allowed by the agreement, both sides share the expectation that the bill will be passed not later than tomorow as agreed to in a conference of ranking members of the Senate Finances and House Ways and Meats Committees, and the conference report approved by both Senate and House before the week end'. Although conceding that the bill soon will become a law, Democratic leaders are continuing their preparations to attack its constitutionality in court on fbe grounds that 1J fails to provide that whatever agreements are made by the commission created by it for the conversion, or refunding of the foreign debt shall be submitted to the Senate for its approval. The contention of the Democrats that such agreements -would be 'binding contracts between the American and foreign governments and, therefrre, treaties subject to ratification by the Senate, is disputed by Republican leaders who maintain that the Executive Branch of the Government has -ample constitutional authority to enter into certain arrangements without the advice and consent of Congress.
