Essential Features Required
Enumerated by Correspond
ent of London Paper.
POINTS OUT OBJECTIONS
TO ORDINARY MACHINES
Difficulties of Transportation Service
as Developed Since the European
Conflict Opened.

In paper presented at the recent
semi-annual meeting of the Society of
Automobile Engineers on the type of truck
for war, Jerry W. De Cou, a member of
the society, said, in part:
'The ideal motor truck for army serv-
ice has been defined by the United States
Army officials as a motor truck that will
go anywhere four-mule team will go.
The first Balkan war of the two immedi-
ately preceding the great European war
witnessed the first serious attempt to use
motor trucks in actual warfare. Out of
the experience of this war, Capt. A. H.
Trapman, war correspondent of the Lon
don Daily Telegraph, gave the following
essential features OF the successful army
motor truck:
Good ground clearance. A strong
hook or ring in front and rear for towing
purposes. (Capt. Trapman adds that this
is especially desirable when river has
to be crossed and the bridge over it has
been destroyed.) Sprays to hold the
vehicle on steep slippery grades. Quick
ty applied non-skid chains.
Experience of the Armies.
"A couple of months after the present
war had started the experience of the
armies at the front discovered a good
many undesirable features in the ordinary
motor car of commerce as regards its
applicability for active military service.
A we'll known motor truck writer at the
front sent home a number of articles
CriticiSing the construction of motor trucks
and adding to Capt. Trapman's recon-
mendations other features, including the
desirability of four-speed transmission, a
differential lock. a relatively small high
speed motor. a large and easily filed
gasoline tank, interchangeable carburetor
and magnetic, drain cocks on the radiator
and on the water jacket of the motor, etc
Everybody knows that for some
years the various European nations
have subsidized commercial motor
trucks for army service. 1t was only
to be expected that the leading army
authorities should favor certain types
of construction and design that lend
themselves to more efficient service of
the trucks in active use Thus the
British government placed the official
ban on motor trucks with double side
chain drive and required certain
amount of interchangeability and also
a standardized control, so that a driver
would find himself equally efficient on
any and all makes of trucks to which
he might be assigned. The British
also required uniform construction on
such items as fuel tank. radiator,
starting crank. brake connections.
