coal mining machine developed by German engineer may solve Europe's acute coal shortage. The "Loebbe Hobel," it's called. gouges out up to 1,000 tons of coal day--about what 250 miners can produce by hand. Only 50 men are needed to operate it. Officials in the Ruhr industrial area say it's the only European mining machine with such large capacity.
They claim the "Hobel" is the answer to the critical postwar coal shortage which has crimped Europe's recovery effort and defense program. The Ruhr, Europe's biggest industrial complex, is clamoring for more coal to fill Western defense orders while West European nations demand large German coal exports to keep their factories humming. The G. E. Westphalia Plant, producers of the "Hobel," say 28 of the machines already have been sold to mines in the Saar and the Netherlands.
Britain has ordered three. Thirteen "Hobels" are hacking coal out of Ruhr mines, 25 more are being installed and 22 are on order. The late Wilhelm Loebbe, chief designer for G. E. Westphalia, developed the "'Hobel" in collaboration with mining engineers of the Saar and Ruhr coal fields.
Loebbe, a onetime farmer, applied his knowledge of farming to develop the new mining machine. The "Hobel" ploughs the coal as farmer furrows the soil. It consists of a "coal plough" which strips off layers up to 12 feet thick. The coal is automatically dumped on to a troughshaped conveyor which delivers it to a loading point. Since the endless chain moves the coal at a constant rate, miners call this "continuous mining." Officials say the "Hobel" is not only the answer to bigger production.
It also cuts costs and helps solve one of the Ruhr's biggest problems of miners. Contractors Unit To Hold Fontana Meet FONTANA VILLAGE, Aug. 25.

Scientists have figured out that a single lightning flash half-mile long uses up energy equivalent to about 2,500 horsepower continuously for 24 hours. There some 44,000 light tning flashes every day, but taking only one-tenth of that number, to be conservative, the scientists estimate the daily lightning energy at about 1,100,000,000 horsepower, continuously, day and night. At one cent a kilowatt hour, that would be worth about $200,000,000 daily. -Frank Romaine.
