A. Weidely. the vice president and de-
signer, was showing some people through
the plant. In calling their attention to
the marvelously small measurements. Mr.
TTye-.:@;v stated that the pistons are
2-lOOOths of an inch smaller than the CYL
inder at the bottom, and at the top they
are 5-1OoOths OF an inch, this being be-
cause the piston must have more oppor-
tLnity to expand at the top, where it is
subjected to greater heat, than at the
bottom.
But the real remarkable point" he
continued, lis in the fact that the pistons
are not allowed to vary in size more or
less than 25-lOOOOOths OF an inch, or. ex-
pressed in decimals, as OOO25. In other
words. this is one quarter of 1-100Oth of an
inch In doing the machine work on those
parts between which the annular bear
ings are placed we allow our machinists
10 vary only 3-1O00ths of an inch. ex-
