Most Extensive Engineering Studies

FRENCH LICK, Ind.-UP The I
auto industry has underway right
now the most extensive engineering
research program in its history.
The research deals with every
thing from piston rings and up
holstery to power output and auto
matic transmissions. Many millions
of dollars have gone into the re
search now underway. Many more
will be invested in the next five
y"rs- . ......

New Combustion Process
Of more than ordinary signifi
cance perhaps was the disclosure
of exhaust tests with a radically
different combustion process for
internal combustion engines. Spon
sored by the Texas Co., the process
is designed to greatly improve fuel
mileage by cutting down ignition
delay. Its proponents asserted the
process would increase motoring
mileage per gallon by about 30
percent, and utilize just about any
kind of fuel.
More efficiency and safety has
been built into today's car than
in any previous models.
Efficiency of operation and
safety probably are more than
ever essential with increasing use
of motor vehicles and the greater
congestion on the nation's high-
usimiess

ways.
But the car makers are looking
ahead not only to still greater use
of motor transport, but to the day
when competition really returns
to the auto industry. When that
time comes the company that can
claim the greatest engineering ad
vances and the most comfortable
ride will get most of the new car
customers.
It is no secret, of course, that a
major part of the huge investment
in engineering research is going
into further development ot auto
mobile engines, automatic trans
missions and the mileage possibili
ties of motor fuels.
Part of Task
All these efforts have been part
of the engineers' task for years.
The efforts have been intensified
since the war as the cost of the
automobile and operating costs
have moved steadily forward.
The industry has been turning

out pretty good engines but the
engineers know they can improve .
them. The automatic transmissions
are doing a good job, but every
engineer having anything to do
with them knows they can be bet
tered. And as for fuel, more than two
thirds of the mileage possibilities
of a gallon of gasoline still goes out
the exhaust pipe. Petroleum ex
perts describe their work in seek
ing great fuel economy as an effort
not only to get more miles per
gallon, but "more gallons to the
barrel of crude oil."
As far as the automatic trans
mission is concerned there is a
growing impression that the ideal
device is going to be a combina
tion of the actual automatic gear
shifter as exemplified in the Hy
dra-Malic transmission and the
torque converter principle common
to all the new types , introduced
since the war.
