DIESEL ENGINE BACK AGAIN

Will the Diesel engine finally BE-
adapted to rUblace the spark igni.
ton engine now used to propel. au.
tomobiles?
This question, recurrent almos,
annually since the invention Of the
automobile. faces its last repetition
with the announcement from Paris
LOT the invention of a semi-Diesel
type Of engine for motor cars.
At the very beginning Of the au-
tomobile industry, use Of a Diesel
engine was attempted on automo-
biles. But, although used for sta.
tionary purposes and In subma.
rines, the. engine would not work
well in a moving, vibrating ma
chine.
The engine, with spark ignition
that has replaced the Diesel, .how-
ever, uses up costly gasoline, while
the air-compression engine feeds
on . cheap. low grade OF oil. A
combination of the good in both OF
these engines. therefore. would
make an ideal power plant for au-
tomobiles.
This ideal-or the nearest to it
French automotive engineers be-
lfeve is finally attained in the SEMI
Diesel automobile engine tested re-
Gently on a trip between Paris and
Bordeaux. The engine, according
10 reports. burns low-grade oil
which costs - cents 4 gallon in
France, as compared with IS cents
for gasoline. At the same time il
retains the advantages Of the spark
ignition engine now in use.
Besides, its Inventors say. the
semi-Diesel costs less for upkeen
and Is simpler Al l therefore cheap-
or to make than the present type
