However, a small test plant has been built in Catlettsburg, Ky., with federal, state and private money. It will open this fall and produce 1,800 bbl. of oil daily from 600 tons of coal...

For the time being, one can only note the irony that the first dent in the armor or this fundamentally despotic government may come in response to its attempts at liberalization. It remains to be seen, however, whether there will be room at a later stage...
