Mr.. Bakers Statement.

Secretary Bakers statement. in part.
follows:
The story of the production Of this
engine is a remarkable one. Probably
the war has produced no greater single
achievement.
Two of the best engineers in the
country. who had never before seen
each other. were brought together at
Washington and the problem of pro-
ducing an all-American engine at the
earliest possible moment was presented
TO them. Their first conference. on
June 3, lasted from afternoon until
2:30 O'Clock in the morning.
These two engineers were fCUrI-
lively locked in Il room in n Washing
ton hoted and charged with the devcl
opment of an airplane motor for use by
American aviators over the battlefields
of Europe. For five days neither man
left the suite of rooms engaged for
them. Consulting engineers and drafts
men from various sections Of the coun-
try were brought TO Washington to
assist them. The work in the drafting
room proceeded continuously. day and
night. Each of the two engineers in
immediate charge of motor develop
ment alternately worked 4 twenty-four
hour shift.
IAN inspiring feature of this work
was the aid rendered by consulting
engineers and motor manufacturers.
who gave up their trade secrets under
the emergency of war needs.

Make Good Their Promise.

The two engineers promised the
government if given an opportunity
they would design a satisfactory engine
before 4 working model could be
brought from Europe.
"A remarkable American engine was
actually produced three weeks before
any model could have been brought
from Europe. 1t was promised that this
engine would be developed before the
Fourth of july Twenty-eight days af-
ter the drawings were started the new
engine was set up. This was on July 8
In order to have the new engine in
Washington and in actual running or
der at the Nations capital on Indepeu-
dence day the perfected engine was
sent from western city in 4 special
express ear. The journey was made in
twenty-one hours and four young men
guarded the engine en- route to Wash

transfer from one railroad to another

Parts of the first engine We're turned

Gated all the way from Connecticut to
California When the parts We're as

the performance of the engine was
wonderfully gratifying
One of the chief rules outlined at
the beginning of the designing work
was that no engineer should be per-

 HIT BY TROLLEY
Driver Hurt When Impact Throws Him From Seat
 to Pavement,

Struck from the rear by a trolley car in Main street at Garfield Ave-, at four o'clock, this morning, milk wagon occupied by Joseph Buiel, was demolished, the horse knocked down and Buiel thrown from his driving seat into the street, striking on his hands and knees.
 The condition of the ground caused Buiel to suffer severe cuts on the hands and he was removed to the emergency hospital for treatment. The motorman of the trolley, John Hunt, of 464 Main street, and the con- ductor, Walter Dolan, of AZ Calhoun avenue, were taken to the fourth pre-. cinct station, but allowed their lib. erty after making statement as to the cause of the accident.
 It is thought that the slippery con- d1tlon of the rails prevented the mo- torman from bringing the trolley to a stop, with the result that he crash ed into the rear of the milk wagon which was proceeding in the Main street car tracks. The wagon was de molished by the force of the impact. milk bottles were strewn about the street and the wreckage was not clear ed away until late this morning.
