KANSAS CITY, April 18. (AP)
With a new kind of earner geared
to the crankshaft end taking 6000
pictures a second General Motors Is
laying the basis for redesign of auto
engines.
The camera takes pictures of the
entire explosion In a cylinder. The
explosion lasts a 250th part of one
second, and In that flash the cam
era takes 30 photographs.
Refeals New Facts.
It rewals facte never gueased and
others guessed but never before vert
fled. The new photography and I"
results were described to the Ameri
can Chomlcal society by Dr. deraid
M. Rasswcller and Lloyd Wlthrow
of the company's research laborato
ries In Detroit.
The camera set up looking directly
Into a quarta window In the englno's
firing chamber, Is rigid, but Its
lenses move. They travel past lt
"eve" on a wheel, geared to the
crankshaft. As each lens passes
momentarily focuses on moving film
jn the camera an linage or tne ex-
nloslon at that Instant.
To prevent blurring, the light of
the exnloslon passes througn a iia
lens before It reaches the traveling
lenses. This makes all the rays par
allel.
Clear photogrsphs result, no mat.
ter how fast the film and lenses
move.
Starts at Spark Plug.
The first surprise seen was around
the reglcn of the apark plug. That
t. whAre the exnloslon sterts. It
snrearts In a wave like a grass fire
But behind the wave, In the burned
ares, the "ashes" or "products of
combustion" remain.
The forwsrd speed of the spread
lng fire wsve sets up back pressure
which heat these "ashes" hotter
than the flame Itself. The tempera
ture of the sparkplug region rises
to 9200 fahrenhelt. Some of the
"ashes" there, the carbon dioxide,
sets so hot It gives momentarily
more light than the burning gas
The second thing hitherto SUS'
pected, but never verified, la back
fire set up to meet the "graas lire
explosion wave. The forward move
ment of .this wave compresses the
nan at the opposite end of the
chamber to high and hot that it
explodes and rushes to meet the
msln explosion. This back fire I the
fsmlllsr "knock."

BEATEN BY VOTERS
CRESCENT CITY, Cft!., April !.
(P) A proposal to disincorporate the
olty was defeated In a special election,
361 to 205, and eponsora of the move
ment today renewed warnings of an
Impending flnanolsl crisis.
Had electors approved the measure.
Del Norte would have become one of
the nation's few counties without an
Incorporated municipality.
Petitions were circulated several
months ago, demanding the ipeclal
eleotlon. The measure's proponents
said evident Inability of property own
ers to meet annual payments on street
Improvement bonds would plunge the
city Into financial chaos.
The bonds, authorised In 1028 and
1920, under the Mat toon act, totaled
$405,040 last July 1, with 145,703 de
linquent. Tax receipts to apply on In
terest and principal were only 417.-
649. with $20,384 due aa payments.
The delinquency thus was about 60
percent.
There alao was a delinquency In
the city's general fund of $6,589.
The measure's advocates contended
that, upon dissolution of the olty
government, about $10,000 spent year
ly for anlnrles and ex pen we thus
would remain In the taxpayers' pock
ets and become available for bond
a aae semen ta.
They argued too, the city's street
would become county road district
and as such would receive a greater
share of state gasoline tax money.
The city besra 40 percent of all taxes
In the county, yet receives only $2,000
of the county's $36,000 state gas tax
funds.
With defeat of d lain corporation, re

11c camp development, 171,000 fish
stocked, 107 miles of stream develop
ment and 609,990 acres of rodent

He said there was equally u con
structive work remaining to be done
which would keep CCC boys busy
the next 20 years. If the program
continued.
Relief Needs Aided.
Besides the CCC activities, carried
on by young men, othera taken from
relief rolls under the emergency
conservation program built 600 acres
of fire breaks, 70 miles of telephone

acres, built 38 miles of truck trails
and 60 miles of horse trails, devoted
1700 hours on fish and game care
and 13.000 man hours on fire sup
pression. "The fire season of 1035 was one
of extreme hazard, with low atmos
pheric humidity and long dry ape lis."
Brundage said, but "fire losses were
kept to the lowest level since 1907."
