G ASOLINE costs more and more every day, with no prospect of relief in sight. You would pro bably be glad to operate your car on anything, provided the cost was reasonable. There is no doubt about the cheapness of sawdust, but you are inclined to question its practical value as a motor fuel. Henry Smith William has an article in December MoToR that points out the unlimited possibilities a hitherto neglected power medium. Internal combustion engines do not depend completely on gasoline. Alcohol or benzol may be made to produce the same results. And a billion and a half gallons of these potential fuels are being wasted in this country every year!

P Trial Separation Barred by Judge Four Months* Living Apart Doesn’t Count on Year Necessary to Prove Desertion. SIX, FDRMERir PRIESTS. TO BE IS PREDICTED No Extensive Corporation Financ ing in Sight. However, De clare Bankers. NEW YORK, Nov. 29.—A plethora! of money is predicted by some of the most foreslprhted bankers of the com munlty at a period not very far dis tant. In the present slowing down of trade, absence of speculation of all kinds and general tendency to restrict expenditure and economize in both corporate and private life there Is the basis for this belief, which Is already foreshadowed in the easier tendency in money rates and the gathering strength of bank resources The Increase in the supply of mon ey, however, in not to be the basis for any immediate period of expenditure such as extensive corporation financ ing. Bankers hold the view that the extent of financing of this nature that is to bo dono in the coming year lfl a matter entirely of future development of conditions. Wait on Events.

Currency Law Vital. The outcome of the currency bill and of the railroads' application for higher rates enters most Intimately Into the situation and it is undoubted that if the bill Is passed in even a moderately amended form and If an Increase in rates is obtained, there will immediately he a pronounced re sumption of active corporate financ ing on a broad scale. It is becoming Increasingly appar- rent that the United States is in a strong position to take gold from Eu rope at any time bankers here desire to do so and consider it advisable, al though the attitude continues to be that we do not need the gold here arid it is better to continue to loan to Europe. The European banks gained moderately in gold holdings and in the general j>osition. 1 /OK ANGULO Nov. 29 A trial sep aration < ame i' 1 llgiii In Judge Mon- I roe’s divorce < ourt.
