MOTOR AL.COIIOI/' TO DISPLACE (iASOIJXE IN HAWAII | Hail to lowly 'and sticky molasses! From it is being produced "motor Icohol"?a substitute for gasoline. Discovered by J. P. Foster, chemist f one of the big sugar plantations on be island of Maul, Hawaii, produclon within the next three months / ill be sufficient to furnish fuel for 11 cars on the islands should a gasone shortage occur. According to the tirst reports of the ew fuel, brought to Sun Francisco by District Manager F. E. Carroll, of 'he Goodyear Tire Rubber Coinany of California, "motor alcohol" Ives more power, greater mileage, asier starting and more freedom roni carbon than gasoline. It can be sed without an adjustment of the arburetor. The new fuel is performing in automobile. marine, stationery, truck and factor engines. In a 36 hour test made with a 7f> horsepower tractor he consumption of "motor alcohol" . as four gallons an hour compared o four and a half gallons of gasoine "in the sa* a engine on the same ,-ork. Exam.nation of the cylinders howed most of the old carbon deosit removed and the remainder sc oft it could be removed with the ingers. Sugar plantations have been letting heir molasses run to waste or burnng it for the potash recovery. Nitroen and phosphoric acid are also aluable by-products of molasses, 'ow, however, production of the now uel is found to bo more profitable han obtaining other by-products. At present there is enough molasses vailahle to produce 9,000,000 gallons f "motor alcohol"?enough to supply 11 automobiles in Hawaii. Development of this industry will release simiping space formerly used for transorting gasoline from the Fnited tates. DOTS FROM SiniiOII.
