the comparative merits of alcohol. gaso-
line and kerosene in the propulsion of au-
tomobiles. was made public recently. 1t
shows that the engines operated with al
<ohol developed more power on hills than
those using the other fuels. The reason
was that while the initial pressure with
alcohol is less than with gasoline. the
mean effective pressure is greater. An
other advantage of alcohol. was found to
be the absence of metallic Sounding. eaus-

The test trip was made in January. be-
tween New York and Boston, with three
cars having identical motors.
