converted to a gas and when aug.
 mented by small flame of acetylene or other inflammable gas, burns with an intense heat
 Behind the water burning process, says the inventor, is the idea to do away with the gasoline motor for air planes. This, he says, will eliminate the weight of the motor, radiator and other mechanism on plane, and apply the power deveolped from the device directly to the propeller. The gases, whose combustion bring about the rotation of the propeller, are led to the tips of the propellor through tubes, these gases being planned to produce the reactionary effect after their combustion in appropriate noz- zles. Jacuzzi has constructed small airplane propeller which works out his principles, he says.
