There is no doubt about the sue
cess and practicability of the. Bundy
discovery, said. L. I'M. McMasters,
government clinical engineer, today,
who is in the city. assisting with de-
tailed perfection Of the =. power. and
heat process discovered by Arthur C.
,Bundy. The Bundy discovery is a
cheap process Of taking oxygen from
the air to be used for heat and power
purposes = -, $500; :~.e.r-
."WheEI was first. sent here was
skeptical," McMasters continued,
"and7 thought it was another fake,
but l am thoroughly Convinced after
full tests that it is the greatest in
vention the world has ever known"
.'McMasters expects to leave next
week for New York City in an auto
mobile, the engine of which will be
operated on oxygen power. He esti-
mates that the total EXPENSE Of car
operation that distance will not be
over 25 cents. A recent trip was
made to Minneapolis by Bundy at
cost of 8 cents. An engine especially
adapted. for oxygen power is now in
the progress Of invention by Bundy,
but at present any auto motor is
used, the spark plugs, carburetor and
ignition tubes being removed. -
I 1t is. estimated that an ordinary
home may be heated for from $40 to
$40 a winter by the Bundy process.
Heat may be increased or decreased
by air pressure, just as the speed Of
an auto can be regulated by the air
pressure. -. - -.
|; The chemicals which draw the
oxygen from the air are the secret of,
the, entire process, and one of these
is q substance which may be obtained
from. any vegetable or weed that
Crews with, the single exception Of
the turnip. The. substance is mixed
with n. second chemical and as the
air passes. through the oxygen is sep
arated and reduced to a form in
which it may be used as heat or
power. -. ..s" 49,.
The Bundy process is now bac ked
by s25,O00,OO0. McMasters declares
some of the largest capitalists in the
east being interested. At present all
stock is in the hand Of a holding cor
poration1 made up Of Webster City
men and capitalized at but $4,000
Letters are received every day from
big corporations offering assistance
seeking to buy stock and otherwise
attempting to "get in" on the inven
ton. Local men, however, expect t.
retain full control.
Bundy exhibited his invention a
1 the Iowa and Minnesta state fairs
where it attracted unusual attention
Since then scientists from all parts o.
the country have visited Webster
City to further investigate the inven
ton. All were more or less skeptical
but every one went away thorough!
Convinced that "Bundy has some
thing" ...
