NE W INDUSTRY
FOR MISHAWAKA
Dodge Mfg. Co. to Purchase
BurnoiI Engine Co. of
South Bend.

The Dodge Mfg. CO. has about
completed negotiations by which
another active industry will be added
to Mishawaka. Arrangements con-
templating the purchase of the Bur-
noil Engine CO., of South Bend, are
near completion, and while it is
somewhat early IN the deal TO state
just what disposition is to be made
by the Dodge concern of the pro-
duction of Burnoil engines, il is an
Jicipated that the smaller type best
suited to the equipment at the Dodge
plant. number four formerly the
Gillette Motors Co., Will be made
there, and the larger sizes built in
the main Dodge plant where the
company has already under con-
struction a large number of com
pound steam engines for harbor
tugs.
The Burnoil Engine co. was
founded some years ago by c. A.
Ross. of South Bend. who is the
principal stakeholder. The company
has manufactured high grade inter
nal combustion type engines, includ-
ing full line for the farm and for
stationary and marine uses. The pro-
juction is fully licensed under the
Hvid patents.
The future of oil burning engines
seems TO be definitely assured as in
dicated in reports emanating from
Edward y. Hurley. chief of the u.
). shipping board. His enthusiasm
that the ultimate development of
American shipping IS, through the
adoption of both prime and auxiliary
engine power of this class, points to
a large production very soon. The
oil burning engine will undoubtedly
be the means of developing extra
cargo handling facilities In all of the
leading ports of the world.
At the outset of the war, the Dodge
plant was chosen by the shipping
board TO build 140O h. p. steam en-
sines of the triple expansion type.
The facilities which made possible
the production of these government
to developing the Burnoil engine to
its fullest measure of deserved sue
cess.
As a result of this new activity.
an enlarged mechanical engineering
organization will be employed which
Will insure Mishawaka the main
tenancee of present productive forces
and a consistent increase therein as
the business develops
