The books of the company are to be subjected to a thorough audit with- in the next few days, and in the mean- while special efforts are being put for- ward to get in contact with persons who have been solicited by the sales- men apprehended.

E. Kaiser § is in Calgary | Following Up His Investi- gations -- Says Process Or- iginated in Germany, That Dr. Frederic Bergius Dis- covered Idea of Converting Lignite Coal Into Fuel Oil Economically : Dr T. E. Kais.r, M., whose recent suggestion that Alberta coal prod- ucts might be liquified into a form of ciude oil by a process said to said to have been perfected and ap- plied in Geriuany, has been study-- ing the Alberta coal fields at first hand, having left Oshawa for Al- berta nearly a fortnight ago. In an interview given The Calgary Daily Herald on October 1, Dr. Kaiser re- ported that he had submitted sam- ples of Alberia coal to Dr. Frederick Bergius, discoverer of the hydro- genation process of reducing coal to a form of cruae oil, and has asked for a report. The Herald's inter- few with Dr. Kaiser follows: "Will the Ontario coal prob- lem be solved by shipping Al- berta product in liquid form? This matter has of, late been engaging the a.tention of cast. ern peop e and Dr. T. E. Kaiser, M. I', of Oshawa, is at present in Calgary in connection with this matter He has just visited the coal fields in Nova Scotia and will mase exhaustive in- quiries into the coal deposits of Alberta. "Or. Kaiser, in the course of an interview with 'I'he Herald, explained that he was particu- larly interested in the recent discovery made by Dr. Fredere ic Bergius, of Gormany, by which lignite cos could be Ii- q'fied and converted futo fuel oil economically and shtisfac- torily. He stated that Dr. Berglus, tinder the direction of the large dye com- panies of Germany had spent ten years in research work and haa taken out many patents in all the countries of the world. In 1926 he claimed to have completed his findings regarding fuel oil from coal, : "As to whether these findings will prove successful or not," said Dr. Kaiser, 'time alone will tell, but in the meantime there are two or three outstanding facts to recom- mend them. Firstly, the -Stasndard 0il Company, of New Jersey, have purchased outright the patents for the United States; secondly, the German government are backing Dr. Bergius' discovery by supporting it with millions of dollars from the public treasury. German firms this year expect to turn out for actual consumption something like one mil- lion barrels of oil," he said, From Lignite Coal. "Dr. Kaiser stated that the kind of coal used was lignite, similar to Alberta coal: Antheqgite, or high class coal was not su process at all. "From the analysis submitted by Dr Bergi is most suitable for hi pose, I find that Alberta coal would comé in the class that would give the best results," said Dr, Kaiser. "I have al- ready submitted to Dr. Bergius the analysis of several qualities of Alberta coal, as supplied by the provincial government, and have asked him to give an opi- nion of its value so far as li- quified oil is concerned." "Provided the process proved a success, and Dr. Kaiser said he had every reason to believe it would, the problem of the transportation of Al- berta coal to Ontario woull be solv- ed as one. carload of the oil would represent 250 tons of the coal. Au- tomatic furnaces would be used in residences and plants. Enormous Demand "When we consider that as a peo- ple Canada imports 500 million gal- lons of crude oil and only produces one per cent of our needs. and when we also consider that the British Empire consumes 11,000,000 tons of oil annually, and only produces 3,000,000 tons, we can readily see that the greatest need of Canada and of the Empire is that of crude oil," sald Dr. Kaider. * "Dr. Kaiser said he was convinced that the great lignite coal fields of Alberta would solve the problem and personally would like to see the government sending a commission of chemists and engineers to Alber- ta to study the problem of produc- tion. He said he also believed that the government should nationalizez the process if found satisfactory, THE BEST WAY (Judge) The' best way for a girl to keep a' man at a distance is for her to chase him, FALLS 65 FEET, IS ALMOST UNHURT Wallace, N.

Baird Has Largest Number of Calls in Single Mc Month The Jargest number of calls ever answered in any one month by the incal Humane Society were respond- ed to in September,.according io the monthly report given to the "Oshawa Daily Times' this morning by Hu- mane Inspector Nelson Baird, This was in part due to the amount of ic'ming going on at the present time, resulting in many complaints of 'horses being lame or having bad shoulders or appearing otherwise un- fit for work. Although a total of 86 horses were inspected by the of- ficer only 7 were found unfit for work, 3 of these being destroved. Another reason for the unprece- dented number of calls is the prac- tice of campers at the Lake leav- ing cats, dogs and other pets be- hind when they leave (for Rome. causing numerous appeals to the Humane Society to care for the abandoned pets. Citizens are re- minded that they ate liable to be charged under the Criminal Code for so doing, as se~. 542 of the Code states that oi) eonvistion 2 wutltv party is lia to a fine up io $50 with imprisonment, who, while in actual possession of any anima] abandons it in distress, The large total og 238 dogs were destroyed as a resu!t of injury or disease during the month, and it was impossible to keep an accurate account of the cats destroyed, as they are sometimes brought in by the basketful, but it is around 100. The. faci that there were no police court cases during September shows that citizens generally are co-operat- ing with the Society on being | warned.
