CARNEGIE TECH SHOWS
MARVEL OF ENGINEERING
Single Gear Shaft Defies Hither-
to Known Mechanical Laws.

Pittsburgh, PA little piece Of
steel mechanism in Machinery hall,
Carnegie Institute of Technology, de-
hes all hitherto known laws In me-
chanical engineering and demonstrated
the Harvesting and application of a
mechanical poweY apparently never be
fore known
The little power maker was simply
section of a cased shaft The driving
end of the shaft, turned by FIVE
horsepower motor, was speeded up to
1900 revolutions minute 3Ehe other
end of the shaft was turning at the
rate of only five revolutions an hour
and developing power which 1t had
been impossible to measure. 1t has
been tested up to the lift of twelve
tons. All this miracle In reduction in
speed and gain of power is accom-
plished In a single gear unit
The new principle makes 1t possible
trains of gears in automobiles, hoists,
air compressors, rock breakers, belt
conveying machines, elevators, me-
chanical stokers, metal shearing and
punching machines and all others
where the main shafting or drive is
run at high speed
In its simplest form the new gear
does not have single cogwheel or
even wheel with single tooth.
One end of the driving shaft is
spigoted into the end of the driven
shaft, turning free in 1t on ball bear
ings Instead of resting in journal,
this driving or high-speed shaft on its
outside circumference turns between
three or four rollers, one or two of
which are larger than the others.
These rollers roll ON the inside of
steel ring, slightly off center. AS the
inner rollers turn on the high speed
shaft the outer ring becomes the driv-
ing gear. The difference in the dame
tiers Of the parts establishes the rate
of reduction In speed and Increase In
power.
The inventor of the new gear is
George Smith Morrison, an Australian,
who is now in Pittsburgh.

Surgeon Says Nerves
Cause OF Air Crashes

London.--Fear fs never responsible
for airplane accidents, In the opinion
Of Maj. "A. Greame Anderson, consult
ing surgeon Of the British royal air
force. From the confessions of pupils
and his own experiences, Doctor An
derson said. he found that fear never
asserted itself in the first few flights
because the pupils were too occupied.
The chief causes Of accidents to
pilots, he explained, were due to nerve
exhaustion. which might develop with
in even an hour after the beginning Of
eight, The pilot then found himself
unable 20 use his mental faculties.
Doctor Anderson suggested that some
method sAoula be devised whereby, In
case +of Ere. th6 pilot could liberate
the ca5tsA 30 which parachute Of
sufficient strength should be attached
to carry 1t and the passengers safely
to earth.
