First Issue Was Late and the Editor Minced No Words in Telling Why The initial issue of The Gazette back in 1870 was delayed a week, and the publisher explained, in an editorial, that it came from two causes. "First of these was a drunken pfinter," he wrote, "and the second, a sick printer. At the outset, we employed a foreman, a man of such age as we thought would render us signal service, by his experience and counsel. Alas! how grievously were we deceived." A Real Souse! "The old hypocrite," he continued, "had been in the army—was constitutionally opposed to labor, and had not seen a sober day since his boyhood. Naturally enough, the Anaheim wine was too much for him. He got drunk at the start and remained blind, speechless drunk during his brief term of two weeks in our employ. "We had 'pi' to set. He set at it." Daily we looked at the 'pi,' but where it decreased in one place it increased in another, until necessity compelled a speedy dissolution of our business connection. "Next, we heard of a competent man at Los Angeles and engaged him by telegraph. The stage being on the wrong track that day, we hired a vehicle and drove to Los Angeles, and triumphantly returned with our new foreman, who swore he would abide with us during his natural life. Shape He's In "Well you all remember the terrible windstorm we had lately; It was the wind that settled it. No dust which I possessed could induce him, with a 'bustid' blood vessel and weak lungs, to remain longer. With promises to send us another man, and regretting, in a nameless amount, that his health compelled him to go, he left." "Then we telegraphed; wrote; we scoured; but the ers were all either drunk or At last we obtained one from mington and another from Bernardino; and to this good time our subscribers are le ed, for even this late appearance of the Gazette."

So widespread is the use of ethyl alcohol in industry and the arts and sciences that it would be almost impossible to compile a list of processes in which it is an important factor. U.S. Industrial Chemicals Co., one of the major producers of industrial alcohol and alcohol products in the United States, operates a large plant in the northern industrial section of Anaheim which annually turns out over a million gallons of the versatile liquid. John V. Lynn, a chemical engineer, is general manager of the plant, which employs 40 persons. The plant first established in 1921 as a subsidiary to the Anaheim Sugar Co., was taken over in 1923 by the Holly Sugar Co. to produce alcohol from the by-products of beet sugar production. In 1926, USI acquired and began producing alcohol from blackstrap molasses, which is the raw material for the plant today. Sugars Converted Alcohol is produced from molasses by a fermentation process in which the sugars are converted into alcohol by the action of yeast enzymes. The molasses is made up into a mash by mixing with a calculated amount of water, so that the final sugar concentration falls within the range of 15 to 25 per cent by weight. Yeast is prepared in special equipment, to insure a pure, vigorous culture and is added to the mash in quantities ranging from 3 to 10 per cent by volume. Above is a picture of the industrial area of the co-alcohol products in the near-gallons of alcohol and all graved picture shown aticals Co. Alcohol, next time.

Yeast is prepared in special equipment, to insure a pure, vigorous culture and is added to the mash in quantities ranging from 3 to 10 per cent by volume. The time required to convert the sugars to alcohol, with maximum yields, varies between 36 and 48 hours. The yeast itself does not undergo change during the process, but merely acts as the agent for the conversion of sugar to alcohol. The resulting mash contains from 6 to 12 per cent alcohol and is called "beer." The beer passes into a continuous distilling unit and the alcohol is separated from the residue, called "slop," by distillation with steam. The resulting distillate is impurea lcohol, which must be rectified by purification has been so developed that the resulting alcohol is one of the purest chemicals produced. Recovery Among the by-products recovered from the distillation process are carbon dioxide, compressed either to a liquid for carbonizing soft drinks or to a solid as "dry ice;" potash for the manufacture of fertilizers; vitamin concentrates for feedstuffs; binders for the foundry and coal processing industries, and amyl alcohol for fusel oil. While the Anaheim plant does have facilities for producing dry ice from the carbon dioxide byproduct, they are not in use at present.

The company is one of the major producers of industrial alcohol and alcohol products in the nation. Employing 40 persons, the Anaheim plant turns out more than 1,000,000 gallons of alcohol and alcohol products annually. As a matter of fact, in the process of making the engraved picture shown above the Anaheim Gazette used an alcohol product of U.S. Industrial Chemicals Co. Alcohol, next to water, is one of the most important chemicals used in industry, the arts, and sciences. Alcohol increased to 10,000,000 gallons in 1914, 50,000,000 gallons in 1918, and is more than 100,000,000 gallons annually at the present time. Defining alcohol, a pamphlet produced by USI states, "Alcohol is that substance known as ethyl alcohol, ethanol, hydrated oxide of alcohol increased to 10,000,000 gallons in 1914, 50,000,000 gallons in 1918, and is more than 100,000,000 gallons annually at the present time. Modst commercially-used alcohol is either completely or partially denatured, depending on its use, according to formulae specified by the U.S. government, to prevent its use as a beverage. Manufacturing equipment at the Anaheim plant which contains pure alcohol is carefully enclosed and locked and is constantly under inspection by government agents. All sale and use of alcohol is carefully regulated by the government. Defining alcohol, a pamphlet produced by USI states, "Alcohol is that substance known as ethyl alcohol, ethanol, hydrated oxide of ethyl, or spirit of wine, from whatever source or process produced, having a proof of 160 or more. It does not include the substances known as whisky, brandy, rum or gin." Jewelry store sales in California total more than 112 million dollars a year, according to the Census Bureau. INSULT AND INJURY SINGAPORE (P)—Police here are looking for a 16-year-old Chinese bride-to-be who fled from her house with all her wedding presents and ornaments just before she was to have married her 44-year-old suitor. The girl's mother gave her the presents and ornaments when she asked for them. Then the girl asked for money to get a dress from a tailor. She left but never returned. The bridegroom arrived with guests at the house and, when he found the bride was gone—with all the ornaments—promptly summoned police.
