Coal, he thinks, may then be $500 a ton and crude on $zo a ganon. ne goes on: "liaising prices and increasing scarcity surely 11 1 i n 1 i t i i -. win anve us to otner iueis. Aiconoi nas been cited as a probability, mainly because it can be produced anywhere crops are grown. The truth of this matter is that if the fuel requirements of the world were to be supplied by the world's crops there would be no crops left to feed the world's inhabitants. "The final summation simply is that when coal and oil both give out we will have an era of sub stitutes beside which the war-bread of the past year will be heavenly. We will scratch around, burn up all our forests, dig our peat-bogs to the bottom, and do what we can to find other sub stances to supply the deficiency. All the substi tutes will bi costly, both from point of view of ac tual price and in point of efficiency. Those who can not afford to use them will simply have to move toward the equator or freeze to death. "Radium is the one direct answer to the prob lem raised by this situation. True, it exists only in minute quantities in the earth's crust. True, under our present system of extraction it costs prohibitively. Still, it is the only logical answer. "Why? While radium tions of from one to three grains per ton in the outer thirty miles of the earth's crust exclud ing the oceans, of course, in which there is only a trace there is sufficient of it in the upper two nines oi crust to supply all possible power-wants iman JT??e f act that it: now costs us over a half million dollars a pound to extract it is no anru- imaiu .me scientnic Drams of the world never has been focused on the problem of securing radium.
