TECHNICIANS RID STATE MARKETS OF ‘BAD’ FUELS
Gasoline and Kerosene Are
Tested; Claim Many Motors *Spared.’
The first two years’ operation of the State's gasoline inspection laboratories in Tibbs Ave. has resulted in elimination of nearly all dangerous and defective fluids from the Indiana market, according to Charles Kilgore, chief chemist. The delicate mechanisms of many motors also have been spared damaging corosions from acids that
formerly were left in gasolines, he said.

“When the laboratories were first opened two years ago we found] much of the gasoline defective and | some of it containing even large | quantities of kerosene,” he said. “Now we find very little bad gaso-| line, The worst we find is a trace of | sulphuric acid which refiners leave | in the fluid. This corrodes the| metai of motqrs.” He said when a sample of a " tank shows traces of acid or sulphur the inspectors condemn it from the markets until it is corrected. Kerosene also is tested daily at| the laboratory. “The main testing of kerosene is| to see that it is not dangerous for household uses,” he said. |
Death Rate Cut
“This requires flash tests to de-| termine at what temperature the] fluid begins to vaporize. The new State law requires that kerosene must’ not vaporize at temperatures under 120 degrees. If it should vaporize at lower temperatures the dangers of explosions would be] greater.” | Mr,

With the addi[tional burden of eight million home{less people, it is quite obvious that not more than a fraction of this population can hope to survive.” The German scheme is not entirely new, it is pointed out.

FRANKLIN CALLS OFF ~ STARLING SHOOTING
I'imes Special FRANKLIN, Ind. Dec. 7.—County commissioners have called a halt to the wholesale shooting of starlings [and sparrows roosting in the Court House trees, but they still want to {get rid of the birds. The ban ov shooting came after many Franklin citizens protested. Now commissioners are considering importing live owls, placing red light bulbs in the trees—or doing most anything that will get rid of {the birds.
