of Oil Burner
DETROIT, Sept. 20. (AP)
The Packard Motor company to
day announced successful com
pletion of tost flift-hts with an air
plane powered by an oil burning
motor, the first Diesel type air
plane engine ever built j
The demonstration, which Pack
ard officials beliere marks, a rer
olutlonary step in derelopment of
aircraft power, was made ta a
regulation Stlnson-Detrolter mon
oplane, ploted by Walter Lees and
Captain L. M. Woolson, both of
Detroit.
Former Senator Truman New
berry or Michigan and a score of
aeronautical officials witnessed
the test held over a local field.
The motor is of a radial air
cooled type and derelops 200 nerse
power. With the uso of the Diesel
principle of oH for fuel the en
gine does away with gasoline, ig
nition systems, spark plugs and
other trouble "bugs."
Kliminatlon of those parts, of-j

From compression in tne cyunaers
t c Diesel action that has been ap
'lcl up to this' time In only ex-
remely heavy engines for power
ul-tnts and In boats. The new en
rine has fewer parts than eren the
izrhtest gasoline engines and its
designers claim for it three out
standing improvements over the
present type of aircraft motor.
They are:
. That the danger from fire from
gasoline is entirely removed.
Both fuel consumption TOd fuel
cost are considerably reduced, it
blng claimed that the motor will
carry a plane 25 per cent' further
with the same weight in oil fuel
compared with gasoline,

raft on a broad scale will be made
".. ossible by cutting out the inter
l arence due to the present elec-
.ivlcal ignition systems on gasoline

BALTIMORE. Septl 20. 'A
There was comparative quiet la
Maryland penitentiary last might
after tear gas bombs were used ef
fecUTefy this afternoon to quell
the - d isturbaace started lloaday
night by convicts who claim they
were denied a public hearing oa
their charge that "officials hare
afarolred guards at the Jail of
cruel , and - lnhaman treatment of
pT-sonera. -
Of the S00 prisoners who took
active part in the demonstration.
Monday night, only 208 still con
tinued on their - ?strike" today,
and barricaded themselves la
their last defiant ' stand against
the prison authorities.
Steel chains were ripped from
their cots and wrapped around
their cell 'doors so that guards
could not gain admittance. Some
striking", convicts piled their
cell furniture against the doors
as additional barricades. Some of
the chains were chisled away by
guards and the inmates of the
cells handcuffed and taken to
more remote parts of the prison.
When the others continued in
their rebellion Warden Brady or
dered the tear gas squad of the
police department to spray one
section of cell blocks with the
ear gas. Fire "striking" con
victs were . rendered helpless by
the fumes and were taken from
their cells and lodged in other
sections of the building.
Next Asiatic Exped
lition
To Seek "Missing Link
99
iSAJf FRAN'CISCO. Sept. 20.
(AP) Hopes of finding the long
sought "Missing Link" the com
mon ancestor of ape and man on
the next expedition to the arid
regions of Central Asia was voic
ed today by Leslie Erskine Spock,
gebldgist with the Roy Chapman
Andrews expedition, who arrived
her e with two cases of fossils. Ac
companying Spock was James B.
Shackleford, official photographer.
The expeditions Into the Gobi
dessert have convinced the scien
tists that the territory is the old
est continuously dryland on earth,
Spock said. "This fact supports the
theory that it was the cradle of
the human race, and we hope
sometime to find there the mias-
ini link.
"So far the missing link has not
been discovered, but a. raw w-e
call the 'dune dwellers' of which
we found new and abundant relics
th's time, shows a type of culture
which did not appear in Europe
until some 10.000 years later. We
collected many stone hatchets, im
plements and decorations of this
race. We also found some excel
lent specimens of Dinosaur eggs
on the present expedition."
The chief find of the scientists
was a portion of the skull of the
largest land mammal ever discov
ered. The huge animal Is unnam
ed, bat it is known to be related
to the Baluchtteiium. a prehistoric
mammal found in Baluchistan. It
was probably about 30 feet high
from its toes to its shoulder, and
lired from 10 to IS million years
ago.
