Site Is Switched

DETROIT, Sept. 12 (U. P.) —Ford Motor Co. engineers today rushed plans for an $11,000.000 plant to manufacture 4000 airplane engines for the U. 8S. Government. Preliminary engineering work already has been started, Edsel Ford, president of the company, disclosed land construction contracts will be

awarded soon. The plant will be | completed within four months after the ground is broken and the first engine is expected to be turned out from two to four months afterward Approximately 10,000 will be em-

Originally, the speech was scheduled at the edge of the CarnegieIllinois plant, in the shadows of the huge blast furnaces, but the company requested a change at a late hour to avoid having its name linked with Mr. Willkie's campaign. The nominee's final address will | be delivered at 5 p. m. at the Amer-| ican Giants Baseball Park, a sta{dium where Chicago's vast Negro population meets for sporting events and political rallies. Arrangements were in charge of former Rep. Oscar | De Priest, the nation’s first Negro { Congressman.

DETROIT, Sept. 12 (U. P.).—Coal and oil, which take nature millions of years to produce, can be made in one hour in a la scientist reported today ing of ciety. Dr.

horatory in

Ernest Berl, research professor at Carnegie Institute of Technology, said he had discovered a process whereby coals, asphalts and oils having exactly the same properties as their natural counterparts could be made from grass, leaves, seaweed, wood, cornstalks of other [vale con miS material. The material is placed under pressure with limestone and similar substances and heated, Dr. Berl said. About an hour is required to complete the amazing transformation. Gasoline and other fuels can be taken from the crude oil manufactured in the laboratory, the chemist added. Gasoline from the synthetic oil “shows a rather high anti-knock value,” the chemist said. In another session, two Purdue University chemists reported the discovery of an easy method of solving a difficult step in the search for a quinine substitute. Prof. Henry B. Hass and H. C. Huffman disclosed they had made possible an easier synthesis of the present synthetic anti-materials, atabrine and plasmochin, and manv related compounds which, it is hoped, will yield one or more better quinine substitutes.
