AIR PROPELLER IS NEW
 INVENTION OF ENGINEER

LONDON, July 20.-After years of trial and experiment Henry Leitner, a British engineer, has produced. an all-metal propeller which is now being submitted to practical tests by. the British, French, American and Jap anese governments.
 France is so well satisfied with the results already obtained that she has placed a contract for the manufacture
 of propellers for her air force on this pattern. A factory has been con structed in France and dies are being made
 One of the first reports on the Lett
 ner propeller in 1917 stated that it had
 been tested to 75 horsepower without deterioration.
 Since that day the French official research station has given this metal
 propeller a test with an engine of $40 horsepower It revolved at the rate of 1885 revolutions a minute, "without showing signs of fatigue" according to the official report.
 A similar test by the British re- search department gave the same re- suit. A propeller has been sent to the United States government to be tested on a still more powerful ma chine. In one test piece of metal struck the revolving blade. Instead of shivering to pieces the blade was dented only.
 The coming of this metal air pro- peller means much to the air indus try of the world. Wooden propellers have been one of the least satisfac- tory features of aircraft, and their average life in the air is only about twenty hours. They warp in storage and split in hot climates. A bird or other small body striking a wooden propeller has been known to shiver it
 to fragments. It is recorded that on
 one occasion a propeller was wrecked
 by hairpin.
