AVOIDS VOTE ON THIRD
TERM RESOLUTION OF TEXAN

WASHINGTON, February 5.-The
House today avoided going on record
on presidential third terms. Just at
the moment when the Slayden resolu-
ton, aimed principally at Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt, seemed about to
pass, shrewd parliamentary move
displaced the measure for considera-
ton. It may be revived later in the
session, but its position of vantage
on the house calendar was lost.
Slayden, a Texas Democrat, intro
duced the resolution a week ago. 1t
sought to express the opinion of the
house" that the example of Washing
ton in retiring after a second term
had been of universal concurrence and
had become the time-honored custom
of the country, a violation of which
would be fraught with peril to free in.

measure by a party vote, and, in thu
opinion of a number of them, indicat

MARINE ENGINE THAT MAY
GIVE GERMANY SEA SUPREMACY

LONDON, February 5.-The British
Admiralty has received news from a
reliable source that a type of internal
combustion engine has been brought
well toward completion by German ex-
perts which, if it fulfills the expecta-
tions of it's designers, should give the
German navy an immense advantage
in its race for supremacy against the
British, as well as other navies of the
world.
A prominent engineer who has
learned the main details of this en-
gine-which its designers have en-
deavored to keep senret-said to the
Associated Press:
q can conceive that a vessel may
be designed using these engines,
which would make the latest Dread
noughts obsolete, and it looks as if
the revolution were imminent For
such a vessel the radius of steaming
might be multiplied by three or four,
or the thickness of armor it would
carry greatly increased, or the vul-
nerability much diminished"
Great Power of Engine.
In one of the principal works in
Germany a marine plant has been
completed, after exhaustive studies
and expensive experiments by a most
able and confidential staff, which can
be destined only for use of the navy.

COLOR PHOTOGRAPHY

PITTSBURG, February At be-
came known today that officials of the
Westinghouse Electric and ManuCact.
uring Company at the East Pittsbarg
plant next Tuesday will make a final
test of a discovery of color photo
graphy which eXcels all methods now
in use. The process, accidentally dis
covered at the Westinghouse plant, is
as simple as ordinary photography. No
specially prepared plates or screens
are used.
The discovery was made last Thurs
day by an official photogra pher

being double acting, the explosion &C
curing on both sides of the pistons.
The Incorporation of such an install
lation in a vessel means the abolition
of boilers and smokestacks, also the
saving of the space occupied by bunk
ers, as the engines would require less
than one-half pound per horsepower
hour, which would mean 100 tons OF
oil per twenty-four hours for full
power, full speed. Any grade of crude
or refined petroleum may be used
Details Kept Secret.
During the last three or four years
great revolution has been in prog
ress in perfecting the reliability, per-
formanne of duty and economy of the
type of engine. The principal prob
lens have been to obtain perfect com
bustion, to enlarge the cylinder units,
to make the explosion transpire on
both sides of the piston,
Germany has led in the study and
evolution of this engine, and is far
in advance of other countries, The
internal details of such an engine are
easily kept secret and the perfection
of a successful counter design by any
other nation would necessarily re-
quire a long period of experiments.
1t appears to the scientific men who
know of this work by the German en-
gineers, that the Germany navy may
have a profound advantage over its
rivals in this engine, which appar.
emily is nearly ready for use. No
other navy, it is believed, has adj
vanced nearly so far in work upon
internal combustion engines.
