W. -J Soybean Fibre A fibre made from soybeans has just been produced commer- cially for the first time by the llackett Co. of I'inrinnali and pro- mises to 1m of major postwar im- portance, the company announces. This new soybean fibre, which la so new it. has yet to be named is claimed > be as warm as wool, says The Financial Post. It la resilient, strong. durable and can be made either moist. urn ab- sorbent or moisturo resistant. It Is not a competitor of any other fibre but Is said to be an entirely new material wilh a grow- ing field of usefulness. It may be blended with either cotton or wool, or it may be woven or spun into fabrics. Already It has been made experimentally Into blank- ets, felt hats, underwear, hosiery, suitings and upholstery fabrics. The process is relatively simple in operation. From the soybean is first extracted the soybean oil. After this the residue soybean mealis sold for livestock feed. Roughly half of this meal Is pro- tein, required amounts of which are removed to make the new fibre. Special Process This meal, It Is said, gives a powder-like product. Through a speoial process this Is liquefied and converted Into a mass wtlh a con- sistency resembling molasses. Thl liquid is then forced under pres- sure through very fine platinum splnnerettes from which it emerges as hundreds of thin filaments. These filamtjutn are then given a number of carefully controlled chemical treatments and baths during which they are stretched and hardened. Finally the fibres are dried and cut '.nto any desired lengths. The company's technologists have made many products experi- mentally from soybeans Including plastics, wallboard and paints. Currently it produces about 70,000 tons of soybean meal annually, and approximately 30 million pounds of soybean oil, which Is distributed under government allocations. The King's Sword For Stalingrad The pictures of the presenta- tion of the King's sword to Pre- mier Stalin make a pleasant me- morial, a little out of the ordinary in the chronicles of the meeting lit Teheran. It was the great eword of hon- or, presented by Mr. Churchill in the name of the King, on the be- half of the people of Britain, in expression of their honor and re- pect for the people of Stalin- grad. The symbolism of thu sword nd the cross are entwined in the atory of the great wars. Th sword of the Crusader was like a cross and so was the word of Joan of Arc. The King's sworfi for Stalingrad lay for three days on the altar of Westminster Ab- bey. And it was taken in a sort of procession and pilgrimage through the towns of Britain and was seen by millions of the Brit- ish people. More than 200 ei-servlce men are now serving as conductors on London buses. A former dis- abled Commando Is among the latest to Join the London Trans- port Service In this capacity.
