At Milford. Mich., it) miles from Detroit, the General Motors cor poration has a 1200-aere experi mental "shop", half plain, half bllls,on which It has built 11 miles of every type of road from con crete to mud for proving out aoy new device intended for nse in or on an automobile. 1 There, two particular teats, among a hundred others how. In progress, are about complete and threaten to revolutionize the pres ent system of carburetion on every automobile, front the lowliest to the most magnificent The two devices have been put through v ery Imaginable test. They , have surpassed even the hopes of their Inventors. One device, si tiny pipe, entirely eliminates the Carburetor and is so simple In construction and opera tion as to turn gray the hair of ev ery combustion engineer from grief that he had not thought' of it. The other ia a gasoline pump, to be attached hear the carburetor. Almost as simple aa the other. It doea away with the modern vacu um tank. The Invention io eliminate the' carburetor costs less than 10 cents It la aaid, to manufacture. That it "works" Is proved by some of the testa conducted with it A car with $37 worth of carburetor and carburetor connections removed and the 10 cent device put in place was driven day after day over a 100-mlle coure. Invariably the re sults were the same. The car cov ered the distance with a 20 per cent reduction In gasoline eon sumption and with an estimated 20 per tent increase tn power. in the other Instance the gaso line pump replacea the expensive vacuum tank. It is simpl? made and operated as Is the ordinary water pump id the cheapest motor and Is set In motion and its speed regulated by the motor Itself In exactly the fashion of the present vacuum tank. Its cost Is trivial. After months dT testing. It oper ates as effectively. It not more so, han the vacuum tank. OH and motor engineers for some yeara Ave agreed that but 15 per cent of the energy stored In gasoline is being used by the modern motor, and car makers have struggled in hope of makipg some startling discovery or at leas reducing the wa3te. But not I until this year have they been promised success. Now It appears to be coming from all directions. It is to'sinprove carhure.tlun that each leading motor maker pins his fondest hopes of turning the pub lic's mind strong to bla car. For the time being, tne oiner neas seem to possess minor possibilities of Improvement., All feasible changes in number and arrange ment of cylinders havo been tried Four-wheel brakes, ballons and lacquer finishes have taken care of those phases, at least for a while. Cooling-systems must yet be Im proved aa must lubilcatlon and spring suspension. There Is room n make lltbter and mora com fortable todies. These will come more slowly. But before them will and must, come better carburetion, and some new typo of transmis sion, simpler to operate nnd con suming less power and at the same time able to deliver more power to the rear wheels.

Changing the solution in a storage battery does not charge it, reveals an investigation recent ly made at the bureau of stan dards of certain solutions, which were said to charge batteries In- At one step, the new good Maxwell creates an immeasurably hffiher con ception of the dollar's buying power in its relation to motor car speed and power. ' The owner of this new good Maxwell finds in it an ability for sustained speed which wins his respect no mat- , ter how powerful the cars which he has driven before. He becomes used to leading traffic in the city because of a flashing acceler ation which is not surpassed by any car built today. He finds himself enjoying these ad vantages at an operating and rrin- tenance cost which owners declare is lower than any previous motor car experience has ever taught them to expect. FoT the cause of this revolutionary achievement, credit the engineering genius which produced the Chrysler Six, the wonderful plants in which the new good Maxwell is manufao ' hired from wheels to body, from radi ator to rear axle. In this new good Maxwell, Chrysler engineers and Maxwell's fine work manship have advanced the ability of four cylinders beyond anything the . Industry had previously produced.
