4 ELECTRIC CAR—Visitors to the 1967 South ern Farm Show, scheduled for today through Sat urday in the Atlanta Civic Center’s Convention Hall, will view a converted Renault R-10, named the Mars II. The Georgia Farm Electrification Council will sponsor the car exhibit. Shown is the electric car’s power plant, a 30-kilowatt, lead-cobalt battery. The car, produced by Electric Fuel Pro pulsion, Inc., of Ferndale, Mich., has a range of from 70 to 120 miles when fully charged. The bat tery will take some 800 full charges before replace ment—the equivalent of from 56,000 to 96,000 miles. I* J By SPECTATOR . . . COMMENTS ON MEN AND THINGS Would you consult your oil man about fabrics? Others do and they tell us of the mar velous fabrics made from oil. Ponder this: “Petroleum chemicals, anions the fastest-growing in dustries in the United States, has a rate of increase three and a half times that of the national industrial average. There are 10,000 different pe troleum chemicals now used for innumerable products, and the list grows by 400 new chemicals or more every year. The most useful of all the basic petrochemicals are methane, ethylene, butylene, propylene and benzene. Al though these five account for two-thirds of all the organic chemicals used in the United States; supply more than half the plastics, two-thirds of all the synthetic rubbers and de tergents. and are a part of nearly all' cosmetics, pharma ceuticals and insecticides from petrochemicals, they represent only 3% — a' tiny fraction — of the output of American refineries. And it is from the five basic petro chemicals that over half of our synthetic fibers and fab rics arc derived. “Synthetic fibers and fab rics are not new — chemists have been at work inventing them for more tlian a hundred years. At the turn of the c< tury, many were made fror cellulose or coal tar or some hydrocarbon source other than oil. A great many still arc made from these sources. The* great, growth of the recent past, however, has been in both inventing and manufac turing such chemicals from petroleum. Extraction from petroleum of the chemical substances is generally more economical and can be con ducted on a mass scale not possible with the output of steel mills and coke ovens. Oil naturally lends itself to continuous systems and con version of its hydrocarbon molecules into a myriad of forms . . .” NATURAL GAS Nature seems to do so much for us. You’ve heard quite a bit about natural gas: well, here’s something more: “Over the past two years the North Sea between Great Britain and the Continent has become one of the strangest- looking bodies of water on earth. By day its surface is peppered with ungainly oil rigs, like great pre-historic monsters «n stilts. At night. The 14th Annual. Meetihg of the South Carolina Mental Health Association has been scheduled for Nov. 7 and 8 at the Jack Tar Poinsett Hojtel, Greenville. Making this announcement was SCMHA Board Member and chairman of the annual meeting, Probate Judge Ralph W. Drake of Greenville. Judge Drake stated that the Pro gram Committee had selected the theme “There Is a Star in Your Future” which refers to the Comprehensive Commu nity Mental Health Center. Fourteen such Centers are planned for South Carolina. The five points of the star represent the five required. services for a Comprehensive Center: in-patient, out-patient, consultation and education, patient hospitalization, and emergency services. Commenting upon the meet ing, Judge Drake said, “Our Program Committee, headed by Dr. Kenneth Warren and Mr. Tom Hall, have done an outstanding job in obtaining professional people to par ticipate in the program.” Approximately 50 psychia trists,' psychologists, psychi atric socail workers, profes sors, teachers, and judges will serve as resource people for the Workshop sessions. Judge Drake added that approximately 350 delegates and Mental Health workers from every k county in South Carolina are expected for the two-day convention.

His continuous revelations of DOD buying blunders— spending hundreds and thou sands of dollars for items worth nickels and dimes— have embarrassed Defense Secretary Robert S. McNa mara, moved the super sleuths of the General Ac counting Office (GAO) into action, inspired forthcoming congressional hearings, and shaken the entire system of defense procurement, which buys $45 billion a year, into a major self-re-examination.
