NEW YORK. April 15. Automobile race
drivers anil other pernonit Interested In the
ppeed taint have from time to time berated
the French Grand Prix. In the coume of
the RosMp when motor ear raclna men et
"nt'ether the subject In Invariably touched
l.i'"n. It seems that past races for the
V,rand lrlx have not met with the ap
proval of Americans who were In France
at the time. They tell of how the man
agement of certain flrand Prix races In
the past were most discourteous to Amer
icans; that they looked upon our cars
and drivers as Jokes and treated them as
such. Also they say that nn American car
could never win the Oand Prix; that the
foreign pilots would lock wheels If neces.
sary and that the spectators would plrk
up a winning American car and pitch It
off ths track.
The absurdity of these exaggerations Is
apparent, yet they reflect the feeling of
men who have had Orand Prix experience.
Also there Is the Incident of Herbert ".ytle
when he was at the starting- line of t
Grand Prix race. The western pilot whs
7'rierA was a final rlenrlnv nt ih pmim
ana one nf the officers of th -a
Frenchman, rolled by In his touring car.
As he pasred Lytle he leaned out of his
car and did something for which New
Yorkers are fined If they do It on subway
station platforms. Also he sneered: "For
your American car, bah!" This Is the story
as Lytle told It to a prominent officer of
one of our racing- associations.
Hut previous contests for the Orand
Prix should have no effect on this year's
race. There will be no discourtesy toward
Americans. The French have come to
realise this country's position In tha au
tomobile world. Also there will be none
of the discourtesies of the past. Arnerl
cans will be welcomed. The establishment
of the Orand Prix agency In this city at
the offices of tha Motor Cjntest associa
tion assures this. The French are soliciting
American patronage for the race. They
xpprectate the fact that this country leads
tjie world In automobile racing and will act
accordingly when tha big contest is held on
July 2. .
Guarantees Fair Play.
And a more substantial guaranty of fair
treatment Is at hand. W. J. Morgan, who
has returned from France, promises a
square deal to every "American team. He
Is the well known motorist who has bean
asked by the French Orand Prix pro
moters to look after the entries In this
country. Also, to assure this still fur
ther, Robert I.ee Morell of the Automobile
Club of America has accepted an Invita
tion from the Automobile Club de la
5rtKe et de l'Ouest to be one of the Judges
Snn the raca. The latter club ia promoting
the Grand Prix. Morell's record, which In
cludes the perfect handling of the Orand
rrlse at Savannah, shows that he la fully
qualified to look after the Interests of
American manufacturers who may race In
France. No attention need ha paid to tha
Incidents of past raaes for the Orand
Prix. Both the French club and Morell are
determined to do away with them.
With the return of Morgan mora data
on tha course ara obtainable. Tha roads
are described as "admirable, rolling and
resisting." Tha circuit la located south
east of L Mana and has a circumference
of fifty-three kilometers. The start and

BLIGHTING EFFECT OF X-RAYS

Roll Im a London Hos

death roll of tha X-rays victims that of
Krnest K. Wilson, Who was for more
than twelve years an operator at the Lon
don hospital. Mr. Wilson, who was only
40 years of age, had undergone six opera
tions. Two minor operations were per
farmed on his hands In 1900, to be followed
I' I two more In 1908. Then he. lost one
fi'Mfer of his right hand, and finally some
glands round the armpits, which were re
moved lust September, when Mr. Wilson
was forced to retire from the staff of the
London hospital owing to his terrible af
fliction. K. Harnack, who was for
twelve years a colleague of Mr. Wilson,
th of the radio department at the
on hospital. "Dr. Hedley and myself
were really the pioneers of the work at
tha London hospital," said Mr. Harnack.
The department was established In 188S.
and when the work became heavier. In
1897, Mr, Wilson was engaged as my as
sistant. He was chosen because ha was
an expert photographer; In fact, a gold
medalist of the Royal Photographic so
ciety. Wilsons Is the third death tha
others being Vt. Barry JJlacker and
Harry Cox. Mr. Mlackall. who worked
with us, Is comparatively safe now,' al
though he has been under an operation
for X-ray dermatitis. There la practically
no danger now In handling the X-rays,"
added Mr. Harnack. "For the last ten
years operators have worn protecting lead
Impregnated clothes and gloves, which ab
sorb the rays and do not allow them to
penetrate." Mr. Harnack has himself un
dergone eight operatlona, having lost his
left forearm, one finger and two half
fingers of tha right hand. He has -also

Worm, or strew scaring. Is among the
oldest mechanical movements and, until
recent years, has been employed to obtain
either a great mechanical advantage or a
consderable reduction In speed between
related machine parts. Later develop
ments, however, saw Its Introduction as a
driving gear for higher speed mechanisms
and while its reputation as an effective
but Inefficient mechanism remained. Its
users began to see greater possibilities for
Its use than they had at first expected.
Worm drive for automobile purposes, how
ever, is counted by many as a new de
velopment, while, as a matter of fact,
Its use commenced with one of the ear
liest. If not the earliest, really successful
automobiles built in Oreat Britain, the
"Lanchrster." The makers of this car
developed at the Inception of its manufac
ture a special form of worm gear1 which
they have employed continuously since
1897, and the mechanical success which
they undoubtedly achieved with their worm
gear led to the Dennis company following
their example and later, another company,
known as the "New Engine- company,"
adopting similar practice. These three
concerns, however, constitute the disciples
of worm driving, and it was not until the I
advent of more silent engines and general
reduction In noise that the greater bulk of
the Kngllsh manufacturers took advantage
of the properties which worm drive pro
vides. Conjunctively, however, with the
created public demand for silence they re
alized in a body the necessity for the aboli
tion of noise in their transmissions and an
Increased efficiency, with the result that
many of them closely Investigated the
merits of the worm drive and Immediately
adopted It for their new models. Today a
very high percentage of the British cars
are worm driven, both in the commercial I
and pleasure fields, while weekly reports
from Europe Indicate that not only are the
French and Germans following in the lead
as quickly as they can accumulate the nec
essary experience, but that the balance of
the prominent Kngllsh manufacturers are
about to adopt the worm drive as standard
In the near future.
An ancient method or separating a citizen
from his dollars was to cover a lead brick
with gold leaf and sell It to him as a
chunk of pure gold. But crooked methods
keep pace with other lines of progress, and
while today the phrase "gold brick" Is a
synonym for a swindle, there are hundreds
of automobile owners who will pay M
for a set of "rubber" tires weighing 100
pounds when they know that pure rubber
when washed and tried costs U a pound.

automobile shops in the world, and third
largest factories of any kind. Their floor

acres. They are the largest shippers of
first class freight In the world. On the
ground where these buildings now stand,
and the army of 8,000 workmen turn out
their 100 odd high grade motor cars each
day, a huge crop of hay was harvested
seven years ago. Thirty seven cars were
made in 1904 by about fifty men; 80,000 were
made In 1910. Full tralnloads-of Bulck
automobiles are often shipped to Bulck dis
tributers. Ons train of forty Rock Island
cars, over a third of a mile long, carrying
127 Bulck automobiles valued at 1164.000, was
recently shipped to Dallas, Tex. Another

statement that tha Bulck Motor Car com
pany's contract for cold rolled steel Is the
largest single contract for cold rolled steel

HERB LYTLE AND HIS RECORD
Heady Driver Has l.onar 1. 1st of Event
ful Drives anil Is Dean of
Americans.
The record of Herb Lytle, universally
known as the dean of American automobile
drivers, who will pilot his Apperson Jack
Rabbit car In the great 500-nrlle sweepstakes
race on the Indianapolis speedway on May
30, is known to some and of interest to
many.
His Connection With the motor car tiwliiB.
try began In November, 1S93, when he
Joined the Duryea Motor Wagon company
In the building of gasoline cars, remaining
there until ls6. He drove a Duryea in the
Cosmopolitan race In New York. May 30,
1896, Just fifteen years prior to the day on
which he will drive the Apperson Jack Rab
bit over the 500-mile route at Indianapolis
on Decoration day next. On November 14,
1896. he drove a Duryea in the London
Brighton race In England. This car he
exhibited at the Bray Horse show near
Dublin in August, 1896. this being the first
motor car ever seen In Ireland.
In 1906 he finished fourth in the Vander
bilt elimination trials and in, the Vander
bllt race of that year was disqualified
for towing his car to start the motor after
the starting crank had been lost.
In March. 1908. soon after he Joined the
Appersons, he drove his Jack Rabbit into
first place in the ISO-mile Savannah road
race and the following day won second
with the Apperson in the 360-mllo race,
which was won by a foreign car. The same
year he finished second In the Vanderbllt,
and won first prise in the sweepstakes race
over the Fame course with a foreign car.
In April, 1908, he finished fourth with an
Apperson In the Brlarciiff race. t
In 1909 his mount was the Apperson Jack
Rabbit in the Crown Point, Lowell and
Rlverhead road races. In the latter he
sustained an injury that made It Impossi
ble for him to drive the Apperson In the
Vanderbllt. Falrmount Park and Atlanta
races In which he had been entered.
On the Atlanta speedway In 1910, Lytle
won the fifty-mile race and finished second
In the 200-mile as well as In the ten and
twenty-mile free-for-alls.
On the Indianapolis speedway on May
28, 1910. In the ten-mile handicap, Lytle
started from scratch and had obtained first
position in the last lap, when his car left
the track and he suffered a broken leg.
Last December he went to England for
a visit and" returned early In March. He
married an English girl and has three
children.
No one connected with the business of
racing motor cars Is more esteemed by
his associates, competitors and acquaint
ances than Is Herb Lytle.
BEER WITHOUT ALCOHOL
Experiments of British Chemist Ex
cites Brewing Interests of
Country.
The announcement was made recently In
London that a new process had been dis
covered for the artificial production of al
cohol, and. Incidentally for the brewing of
beer wholly free of alcohol. The brewing
and distilling Interests of England has ex
pressed much concern over It. In discussing
the new process, a London newspaper says:
"Otto Overbeck, at the Criterion restau
rant, recently read a paper before the In
stitute of Brewing on some experiments
in denlcohoUzlng beer and reproducing al
cohol. "Mr. Overbeck said that last year he
discovered that he couhj drive carbonic
acid gas produced from soda and sulphuric
acid therefore, not fermentation gas with
either ethers or alcohol through beer when
he raised -the temperature to above 70 de
grees Fahrenheit, and that the gas con
tained traces of alcohol aa It escaped after
having been driven through the beer In
such conditions that the latter was con
verted Into froth. When the temperature
of the beer was raised to 130 degrees Fahr
enheit, and carbonlo acid gas was driven
through It the percentage of alcoholic con
tent becomes constantly less, until the
liquid might be made absolutely alcohol
free.
"Before these experiments were made
It was considered absolutely Impossible to
abstract alcohol from beer without placing
that liquid under such conditions that It
could not reasonably be hoped to continue
the fermentation afterward on account o4
tho heat required to separate the noxious
excreta or alcohol. By ths above-mentioned
process he dealcoholiied absolutely brilliant
beer form all except ultra-microscopical
traces of yeast, and he continued the pro
cess by carbonic acid gas at 130 degrees
Fahrenheit until the percentage of alcohol
In the beer had been lowered from above
4 per rent to t absolute.
"When this beer had been dealcoholiied
to i per cent. It was his Intention to pre
sent a brewer with a sample of his own
now dealooholiied beer In the same spark
ling condition in which It generally was
sold In bottle. He, therefore, froze all the
beer and proceeded to do the best he could
to carbonate It In the laboratory without
pressure. He started to pass a slow current
of carbonlo acid gaa through the chilled
beer, when the beer was at freezing point
he analyzed it and found to hla Intense
annoyance and astonishment that he had
made a grave mistake and that hla esti
mate of the spirit had now risen to 1.13
fctwolute. He threw the stuff away and
then went through the whole experiment
over again, but the result remained tha
same the artificial production of alcohol
: a brilliantly clear, yeast-free, dealcohol
iied beer (at a temperature of 130 de
gress Fahrenheit) subsequently fiosen at a
temperature at which no English yeast
cells or cell Juice could produce a trace of
alcohol.
"Such a thing as an artificial production
of a'cohol had never entered hla head, and
since h had offered that paper to them he
had heard the opinion expressed that the
matter was absolutely Impossible. II was

fields of endeavor.
Today KredrU-ksnn Is one of the
leading automobile dealers of the

had to watch the huge form of the
big fellow cross the tape a winner.
He raced when bicycle racing was In
Its prime and saved enough money
to enter the bicycle business!
Fredrlckson was the first to have
an automobile In Omaha and the
first to sell one. Later he owned
and sold -the first large car. When
he displayed a 12.000 touring car for
sale some were wont to think he
had something no one would buy. lt
sold and since tlmt time Fredrlckson

skeptical himself, but after repeating the
experiment with two or three other beers
under exactly similar conditions, and in
each case obtaining as a final result n
greater percentage of alcohol than he hnd
before he started to freeze the liquid, he
came to the Inevitable and incontrovertible
conclusion that he had, Instead of carbon
atlng dealcohollzed frozen beer, really been
tiolnu exactly the contrary, and had been
gradually reproducing some alcohol by
chemical means in a liquid from which It
win his most earnest desire to keep It out.
He had repeated the experiment twenty or
thirty times, generally, but not always,
with the same .result. The maximum In
crease was from .2 to 2.2 absolute alcohol.
This wits not perhaps a very large quan
tity, and It took some time, and he ad
mitted that only one beer gave such a gen
erous result.
"What appeared to him to be most curl"
ous In this production of alcohol was that
the entirely neglected waste product, car
bonic acid gas, had by this discovery been
raised from Insignificance to a pinnacle of
the greatest Importance. The discovery
lent Itself to such an enormous amount of
fascinating original research of the most
practical kind that he suggested that six
of them should unite and co-ordinate the
results they might obtain by experimenting
upon this basis with a view of publishing
the whole series of researches under their
Joint names."
MANY MILLIONS GO TO WASTE
Fellow with the Froa-al Mlml Pre
sents Flo-arcs on Fortunes
Passed I' p.
At the beginning of every year some
body or other of a mathematical or frugal
turn of mind begins to figure out how
much we might have saved had we begun
harvesting our pennies, oil and tvlne at
the beginning of the year. Thla time It Is
John T. Schaffer, Inventor of labor-saving
and waste-preventing devices, of Roches
ter, N. Y., who leads the van with In
teresting financial statistics of what might
have been. ,
According to data complied by him,
many millions of dollars were simply
thrown away during 1910 because we let
them dribble through our fingers. He has
more statistics In the waste problem than
probably any other man in the country.
Of the long list of materials most grossly
wasted in America, corn cobs, oily waste,
cornstalks, sugar cane stalks and waste
leather scraps are perhaps the most valu
able when scientifically treated for con
servation. According to Mr. Schaffer, the lubricat
ing boxes on railroad car wheels are one
great source of unconserved wealth. There
are 10,249,462 car wheels In the United
States on Its passenger and freight cars
and locomotives. They require, on an
average, thirty gallons of oil per year,
which makes the annual consumption of
oil for car and engine wheels alone 307,483,
860 gallonsi
To soak up this vast amount of lubri
cator M, 2 17.310 pounds of waste are used,
or an avctage of five pounds to each
wheel. A di monstiation of caving oil from
waste used was made by Mr. Schaffer,
and from sixty pounds of the oily waste
seven gallons and one quart of oil was
squeezed.
If. on the average, 100 pounds of waVte
produced only eight callous of oil, the
amount possible to save from the oily
waste used by the railroads of the United
States In one year would reach the total
of 4,0.17,734 gallons, and at an average price
of only 3 cents per gallon Us cash valu
ation would be tl.366,5!5.
Discarded corncobs are another neg
lected source of wealth. Mr. Schaffer
claims that they can be converted Into
wood block in many forms, the most val
uable of which are lumber, railroad ties
and the basis of many kinds of furniture.
He estimates that this year's crop of ap
proximately 3.000,000,000 bushels would pro
duce 1,650.000.000 bushels of cobs on the
basis of fcl per cent cob, and these pressed
Into boards would yield 99,900,000.000 feet
of lumber. Made into railroad ties the
cobs would produce 412.000.000 ties, which
would be enough for 13,733 miles of . rail
road. Of the neglected and undeveloped sources
of wealth of this country pest Is foremost.
Some of the richest peat deposits In the
world are around Blake lake, St. Law
rence county. New York. The Oreat Dis
mal swamp of Virginia Is worth more than
many gold mines. Cape Elizabeth, Me.,
has a great vein of peat, located three
years ago by the United States geological
survey. There are vast quantities in the
Dakotas, Minnesota, Wisconsin. Mlchgan
and the New England states, and their to
tal value, at 3 per ton, has been estimated
by federal experts at 138,000,000.000. One of
the most successful uses to which peat has
Been put Is In the production of gas. It
has been used by the Notia Steel works
In Sweden for thirty years for the making
of gas, and from 13,000 to 16,000 cubic yards
of dry-kneaded peat are used for gas mak
ing annually. Peat gas Is used In several
parts of Europe for glass melting and in
furnaces.
A ton of dry peat will yield forty-three
gallons of alcohol when treated with sul
phuric acid and a special yeast, and ths
alcohol will cost about one-fourth what
potato alcohol does. Tar Is also a product
of peat. The use of peat for fuel Is'
known the world over, and peat brlckets
have proved successful In Europe. Cleve

How Goodyear No-Rim-Cut Tires at no extra cost

Goodyear Tires have become the sen
sation. Last vear our tire sales in
creased by 200-er cent in one year.
This year 64 motor car makers have
contracted for Goodyear No-Rim-Cut
Tires.
We have sold half a million of these
patented tires enough to equip 125,000
cars.
Every man who buys tires is wrong
ing himself if he doesn't learn the rea
son. No-Rim-Cuttin g
Rim cutting is utterly out of the ques
tion with a Goodyear No-Rlm-Cut Tire.
All this worry and damage Is forever
avoided.
But the feature which makes this type
of tire practical is controlled by our
patents, and others can't use it.
That is the only reason why other
tire makers cling to the clincher tire.
An ordinary tire,
if you run it flat, can
be ruined in a single
block. A No-Rim-Cut
Tire can't be
harmed In that way.
If other things are
but equal, is it not worth while to in
sist on a tire, that can't rim-cut?
No Overloading
No-Rltn-Cut Tires have no hooks on ,
the base. We can make them, on thia i
account, 10 per cent oversize and still I
fit the rim.
And we do it. That means 10 per
cent more air 10 per cent greater car
rying capacity without any extra coat.
This oversiie, with the average car,
adds 25 per cent to the tire mileage.
This oversize takes care of the extras
the top, glass front, gas tank, extra
tire, etc. It saves blow-outs.
You could well afford to pay 20 per
cent extra for it. When it costs noth
ing extra, don't you think it worth
while to accept it?
