GERMANS RECEIVE WARNING
Studebaker Corporation Tells Teu.
tons to Brace for Shock.
TO SHOW GERMAN OWN SCIENCE
MetHllureical Exhibit TO ne sent by
Americans TO Country which Has
Been Famous for Its Sci
ence for Ages.

Staid, sedate old Germany. famous for
ages as the nation most skilled in metal
lurgy and its eNemplifications. will soon
receive shock.
The motive force is already on the way.
It takes the form Of a series OF mounted
EXHIBITS, gathered for the benefit of its
German dealers by the Studebaker Cor
poration Of South Bend and Detroit And
the exhibits are designed to show at a
glance the wonderful American develop
ment Of Germanys ancient art. as en-
bodied in the modern, popular-priced auto
mobile.
That an American manufacturer should
organize such a demonstration to influ-
ence German purchasers will. it is con.
fidently foretold, constitute in itself an
instance of bravado from the Teutonic
point of view. The exhibits will, how
sever, simply speak for themselves-tacit
evidence to the supreme value of machine
methods, scientific heat treatments and
the application Of laboratory conclusions
to manufacturing practice.
There are enlargements of microscopic
photographs, showing the wide variance
Of the different types OF steel used for
the various Studebaker parts. Each
photograph shows the evidence of some
a especial Studebaker forge operation, heat
or quench.
There is an axle shaft of Studebaker
steel, bent double by the tremendous
force of over $1,000 pounds. but still show,
ing no flaw.
There is shown in detail the steel disk
from which, in seventeen pressing oper-
ations, grows the broad, efficient Stude-
baker push rod, that takes even the click
out of Studebaker motor.
There are S,uueuaAer sears wich a file
cannot scratch.
There is a Studebaker front axle which,
in mighty machine has been twisted
1cur complete revolutions without break
ing.
These and other parts of similar in
terest. have been mounted in sets, and
plainly labeled. They will soon be on
view at Studebaker salesrooms through
out the Empire aiding in the rapid edu-
cation of buyers TO the merits of Ameri.
can-made motor cars, even in a land long
famous for the individual skill of it's
native workmen.
The idea Incorporated in the display
goes to the credit of George E. Wins,

"F" RAYS MAY FIND MINERAL
Apparatus Invented by FlOrentine
for War May Find Wider
Uses.

The experiments made in France in Au-
gust last and in Italy during the last few
months by the Florentine inventor, UliU,
in regard to exploding deposits Of powder
without contact by means of the So
called "F' rays, have been duly chron-
icled in the newspapers, says the United
\States Consular and Trade Reports. A
Neld apparatus which can locate and ex-
plode a magazine or a mine at consider
able distances is conceded to have a high
value as a weapon of war; and that is
probably the primary value OF the dis
covery. However the inventor has stated
that the greatest value of his invention
will ultimately be found in purely COM
mercial field, namely, the locating OF
mineral deposits in the earth.
The secret of the apparatus lies, OF
course, with the inventor, but he has
given some general information in regard
TO the operation of the "F'' rays. The
apparatus as used by Ulivi is equipped
with resonators. The "FN' rays directed
or aimed by the apparatus cause the
resonators TO sound tones which vary in
accordance with the body through which
the rays pass. In his experiments In set
ting off explosives by means Of the "F''
rays, Ulivi has specialized on the note
or tone given out by the apparatus when
the rays encounter the explosive and its
Container. The sounding of the note gives
him the accurate direction, after which
the rays are intensified or focused so
20 speak. until the explosion occurs. Par
enthetically it might be added that the
IF" rays, under the Ulivi system, are
Valueless against explosives which cannot
be fired by ignition.
-~~ln the course of these experiments Ulivi
has discovered that each metal encoun-
tered by the rays has a distinctive tone
ON the resonators, which tone varies in
accordance with the character, volume
and density of the body of metal encoun-
tered. The inventor believes that an APP
paratus OF the type now used by him,
perfected with a view to accurately
classifying different metals and their
volumes, could be employed with certainty
in the exploration OF mineral land and in
locating ore bearing lodges. At presen.
Ulivi is entirely occupied with the mill
tary and naval value Of his invention,
and 1t is impossible for him to give any
attention 10 the commercial possibilities
Of his discovery, but il has been suggested
10 him that for an apparatus capable OF
discovering mineral in land and of ap-
proximating the mineral bearing value
thereof a market might readily be found
IN the United States.

AS the result OF his skillful riding
Ramer carried off the Birchall silver

and tube as prizes. He has been a lead
ing amateur rider for several years, dur

prizes and first places in motorcycle races
than any other two Omahans.

No speed records were made in any OF
the events because Of the nature OF the

they were run up and down hin. The

AUSTRIA'S PREMEDITATED WAR

No official statement concerning the wal is more important says
the New York World, than that made by ex-Premier Gioltti, in the
debate tpor the vote of confidence in the Salandra ministry, that Aus
tra communicated both to Germany and to Italy in August 1913, her
intention to act against Servia. #
This lightning stroke from Rome confirms much that has hitherto
rested upon deduction; that the German increase in the active army and
the direct property levy for military purposes we're preparations for
a definitely expected war; that Austria, almost a year before the muir
der of the archduke ave Ter a pretext was already planning her on
saught on the hapleSs land which, as Count Mensdorh told Sir Edwar
Grey in July, she had always regarded Is being in the Austrian sphere
OF influence and that the real cause OF the greater struggle a tue
Balkan war and Servias growing power "a a barrier on the Austrian
road to Salonca.
The Gioltti statement explains also why Germany at the opening
OF the great struggle showed Sc much more anxiety to keep Great
Britain ot of the a than to draw Italy into it, Austria had already
been warned by the late Marquis di San Giuiano, with GioittIs con-
sWe, because nobody thinks o attacking her Berlin and Vienna knew
a year in advance how Rome would interpret her treaty obligations.
They felt themselves strong enough to deal with France and Russia
The failure to pacify England-the failure to see in advance that the
German powers could not paGfy her while invading Belgium and smash
ing France-was the great diplomatic blunder of the century.
incidentally, the fact that the most powerful Italian statesman Is
not averse at this critical time to throwing such a bombshel into the
German-Austrian camp is in itself significant, and not impossibv
prophetic.
