Canada Halts Liquor Output Distilleries Diverted For Manufacture of Synthetic Rubber and Chemicals Production of beveragog by i'an adian distilleries will be halted Nov. 1 and the entire output di- verted to war purposes, the Munitions and Hupply Department announced last week. The order In. by ChuiiilcaU Controller E. ('. Sterne, has no direct effect on sales of beverages already manufactured and do,.; not apply to the manufacture of beer and wine. There was no Immed- iate Indication of how long exist- ing stocks of distilleries will sup- ply present demand*. DUitllled liquors are stored for at leant two years for maturing.

When Automobiles Annoyed Farmers The following Item came from the Hanover Post files of twenty years ago. It had beeu reproduced then from a fifteen-year-old paper, and had appeared originally In one of the Walkerton weokly nnws- papers under the headline, "The Automobile Nuisance." "In Kincardine one day last week, an automoblln frightened a horae, the horse ran away, the driver wns thrown out of the rig and had his leg broken. It is be- coming vory apparent from Inci- dents like this that lomethlng will have to he done about tbese automobiles. For several ynars past the farmers In the vicinity of Toronto have been aKltatlng for a law to restrain automobiles from Using !'l' pll'bllC Ml, ;!u< i. hut flO far have not been abln to accom- plish anything.

Morses that are ennlly nun >h controlled In i in' pir.u'iiri' of a railway train will go crazy at the sight of an nulKJinnhlln and accidents such as tho above ire happening all over the country. U will not IM long before the automobile will drive the farmers off the public high- ways altogether unleim oniotlilng Is done to restrain them. "The farmers built these high- ways In the first place and are tailng iiirinsrU i-< twery year te> kep them In repair aiwl It must be more than a little annoy In* to them to be thus dlsponnesiied by this new machine. What they ought to do Is pledge every can- didate for Parliament to use his vote and Influence In favor of law prohibiting automobiles from using the public highways al- together, or at leaflt under coneV- Uons that wilt not Interfer* with traMlc." Have You Heard? Three Jovial travellers were din- Ing together at a hotel one day, when It was agreed between them that whichever of them possessed the oldest name should be exempt from paying the cost of the din- ner each one was enjoying. The flret traveller man said: "My name is Richard Bv*. and that 1* rather old, you must ad- mit." Th* next man replied: "My name Is Adam Brown; I go further than you." The third traveller, with a merry twinkie In his eye. took his business card from his pocket and bowed It to the other two, who read on it these words: "Mr. B. Olnnlng." "How did you learn to use both hands equally well, Pat?" 'Sure, now, and me father, he always add to me: 'Pat, learn to cut your fingernails with yure left hand, for some day ye might be afther loiing yer right hand.' " "That new man Charlie we've got on the pumps Is certainly a live wire," said the manager of the gas station. "Really?" "Yes. A motorist drove up just now and shouted: 'Dionne Quin- tuplets'!" "That was a puzzler, wasn't it?" "Not to Charlie. He almply said, 'Yes, sir,' and gave him flvgals.!" Garage Mechanic What's the trouble, lady? Mr*. Newdrlver They say that I have a short circuit. Can you lengthen It white I wait, please? A candidate for parliament de- claimed: "The people of this coun- try must grow more wheat." "How about hay?" yelled a heckler.

Alaska Highway Soon To Be Used 1,600 Mil* Route Btlng Com- pleted Ahead of Schedule The Alaska Highway will be ready for use about Dec. 1, War Secretary Henry Stlmaon announc- ed and traffic Is expected to move steadily over Its 1,600 miles until spring thaws make It impassable In April and May. Not only Is the highway being completed months ahead of sched- ule, Stlmaon said, but Instead of Jhe contemplated rough "pioneer" road, the "highway as it Is now be- ing eoiifltnicted by the corp* of engineers is a well-graded, woll- drained truck road for practically 1U entire length and will afford two-way traffic over many long stretches." Stimaon said that muskeg, the bog moss that was expoi-ted to give the highway im unsteady base over long stretches and provide some of the woret problems of the un- dertaking, had proved to be a minor ronsiilpratlon. Connects With Railway* The highway, beginning at Daw on Creek, B.C., runs northwest to Whltehorse, Yukon Territory, and then crossed the Aluskan boun- dary, terminating nt Fairbanks. It connects with the rail and high- way systems of Southern Canada and the United States nt Dawaon Creek, and not only provides a motor highway to Alaska, but serves also as a fe-eder route for various military airfields which previously had to depend on air transport alone for all supplies. Army arrnngi'inontg for winter maintenance of the road Include ret crimps for the opera tore of truck convoys, barracks for en- gineer mnlntiMianro troops, and weather observation and tele- phone Installations the length of the highway.

Well, Baby's beaten you to It, Science Service points out, for he's already given his pants. IB the United States they're wrap- ped around the army's telephone lines. How rubber latex that used to be used in making necessary arti- cles of infant's wear now goes into Insulation for light-weight com- munication lines was related be- fore the Eighth Annual Chemurglo Conference at Chicago, by Dr. M. C. Teague, research chemist of the United States Rubber Company. The latex-Insulated telephone wire is produced by a multiple dip pro- cess using a special latex com- pound. It weighs only 30 pound* per mile, as compared with 188 pounds per mile of the older-type wire. The government has already ordered more than 100,000 miles of the new wire, enough to go four times around the earth. The list of latex articles used In war is a long one. It include* bullet-proof fuel tanks for air- planes, life rafts, pilot balloons, gas i.iasks, aviators' helmets, blackout paint, sponge cushioning for use in tanks, submarines, gun- eight eyepieces and a thousand other things. All of this hast meant, of course, that civilians have had to get along without the two-way-stretch fabrics that have come to be stand- ard parts of bathing suits, founda- tion garments, shoe tops and "elas- tic" generally. Again the rubber industry ha* come to the rescue. Dr. Teague told about a new "synthetic" latex made from reclaimed rubber.

He said cannibals, soldiers, sail- ors and marines all were working together in construction of a s-tra- teglc airfield in the South Pacific, "Needing labor," eaid Captain Teem, "we sent a sergeant to u adjoining Island to get labor re- cruits. "When he got to the village the cannibals were just finishing a feast. The main dish was 1 women stolen from a neighboring tribe. It seems the rival tribt stole the wife of the chief and this tribe retaliated by stealing the other chiefs 10 wives. So the sergeant says. "It was known these were can- nibals, but friendly to the white*. They only eat each other. "The sergeant dickered and they agreed to come over and help us for a certain period.
