EXPLOSIVE FOR BATTLEFRONT
t
COLUMBUS, O., June 22.—When,
housemaids here empty potato peel
ings, melon rinds and other scraps
into the garbage can for the city re
duction plant they are supplying ex
plosives for the European battle
fronts and incidentally, about $75,
000 a year income for this ci*y. The
same is more or less true in other
American cities with reduction
plantB.
Both grease and tankage are pro
ducts of green garbage. The grease
is sold to chemical concerns that
* make it into glycerin. This product,
in turn, is used in makit/g high ex
plosives for the European fronts.
In addition to the sale of grease
and tankage, the reduction plant of
ficials hope to increase the profits of
the plant by the manufacture of al
cohol. Experiments in this manu
facture are now being made.
Doc buys everything.
