OFFERS DEMONSTRATIONS

In his laboratory in the Woolworth
tower, Miller Reese Hutchinson, en-
gineer and inventor, performed re-
peatedly yesterday an experiment the
development of which is likely to revo-
lutionize in war time the speed and
penetrative power of gunf1re, while it
promises In the industries of peace
vastly to simplify the process of RI
vetting entering into all steel con-
struction, whether of buildings, ships
or bridges.
DIR. Hutchinson, in the presence OF
many distinguished engineers, using
a metal gun device no longer than his
arm and looking like big syringe,
drove through a steel plate three
quarters Of an inch thick a sharp
nosed bullet three inches long ami
about one-half inch in diameter. In
doing this, he said. the quantity OF
gunpowder used was only one-third
the amount burned in discharging a
small rife. There was no smoke at
tending the experiment and the only

plate. The bullet. the experimenter
said, travels at the velocity of a mile

ward push such as might be used In
emptying large metallic syringe and it
was attended apparently by no recoil
such as would be felt from an ordinary
gun. For wartime use enlarged guns OF
this type, DR.. Hutchinson said could be
made to throw FIVE ton gas shells for
miles.
Perhaps the most mystifying feature
of his device Is that the degree Of pene-
tration may be regulated by the size Of
the charge and that the penetration OF
the slug may be stopped at the will Of
the operator. DR.. Hutchinson a dozen
times shot through the plate rows OF
bulletlilse slugs the bottom half OF which
