Metallurgist Explains
Dependability

What gives a motor car depend
ability, endurance and long life?
According to the chief metallurgist
of the largest mill that supplies alloy
steels to motor car builders, the cars
that have earned the best reputa-
lions for dependability, endurance
and long life under such rough hard
service as furnishing transportation
to the army and to explorers far
beyond Civilizations frontiers, owe
their good names to the shock and
wear-resisting properties of the heat
treated alloy steels used in their vital
parts.
Avoiding the scientific and tech
nical terms of the metallurgist and
engineer. he explained to the auto
mobile owner and buyer why the
alloy steels are used for the vital
parts of the good motor car or truck.
There are two fundamental re-
quirements TO long life in motor
cars, this expert brought out:
First, the steel selected for a
given part must have the proper
composition or chemical analysis for
that part Second, it must be
properly heat treated to develop the
correct degree of hardness, strength
and shockresisting ability.
of these two desired qualities the
most important to safety is ability to
resist shock, and it is in this char
acteristic that the proper alloy steel
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1926-10-23

is so far superior to any carbon
steel.
Correct composition and correct
heat treatment plays the same part
in the production of the vital parts
Of an automobile that the proper
proportioning of ingredients, proper
mixing and proper baking play in
the making of bread, rolls and
pastrys.
1T is no more possible to make
from cheap carbon steel a steering
knuckle, steering connection, axle
shaft or exhaust valve sthat posses
maximum safety and endurance than
it is to make fine pies, cakes and
pastry from ordinary bread dough.
The success of both the metallurgist
and the pastry cook depends upon
exact control of the baking as much
as upon the materials,
"rhe alloy steel bar as it comes
from the steel mill the alloy steel
forging as it comes from the giant
hammers, the green gear or other
ALLOW steel part which has Just been
machined does not possess these two
essential characteristics any more
than if made of cheap carbon steel"
At the request of the Gardiner
Motor Co, local dealer, Dodge Broth
ers engineering department has sup
Piled some interesting, information
regarding the amount of alloy steel
used in their motor cars.
According to these figures" states
James r. Mosher of the Gardiner
Motor Co, over 465 pounds of cost
ly chrome vanadium steel are pur-
chased for making the vital parts of
each Dodge Brothers chassis. The
other forgings in each chassis re-
quires less than 175 pounds of open
hearth carbon steel.
Now Dodge Brothers are using a
larger weight of chrome vanadium
steel in each chassis than they did
year ago and a much larger weight
of this fine costly alloy steel than
was used in the Dodge Brothers car
which Won such a good name in the
military service during the World
War
The front axle I-beam, steering
knuckles, steering arms and connec-
lions, propeller shaft, drive pinion
and ring gear, rear axle shafts,
crankShaft camshaft and many
other parts are all heavier than they
We're in 1917 and are all made of the
finest chrome vanadium steel and
are all scientifically heat treated in
the finest electric furnaces in the in
dustry.
I'm building the 2O7,115 motor
vehicles shipped by Dodge Brothers.
Inc, to dealers during the first six
months Of 1926, nearly forty eight
thousand tons of chrome vanadium
steel were consumed, approximately
twice the amount used by any other
maker of motor cars

Production Capacity
Nash Plant
To Be Increased

Material expansion of the produc-
ton capacity of the Nash light SIX
plant at Racine is under way. An
nouncement of this program, entail
ing the installation Of over 100000
worth of additional equipment and
giving the plant a production ca
pacity of 800 to $50 cars a day, is
made by G. w. Nash, president OF
The Nash Motors Company. Coun-
try-wide demand for the Nash light
six, strongly emphasized since the in
PRODUCTION of the present new series,
has kept the Racine factory in an
oversold condition for many weeks
past although the present produc-
ton at that plant is over 225 cars a
day.
1T was because. of the denfand for
many more cars than our present
capacity would allow that Mr.. Nash
authorized expansion of the plant on
scale that would be commensurate
with our requirements" said d. M.
Averill, general manager of the Nash
light six factory.
Definite orders have been placed
for practically all of the new ma
chinery contemplated in the ex-
pansion program; some of the equip
ment. has already been installed and,
it is expected, that the entire install
lation will have been completed in
the next sixty to ninety days All
departments in the large Racine
plant will be affected.
every item in the list of ma :
chinery will be of the very latest and
most approved type of factory equip
ment known to the automobile in
dustry," says Mr. Averill. This to-
gether with the present equipment
all thoroughly modern, and installed
only a year and a half ago, will give
us plant which from the point Of
modern equipment cannot be eX-
celled in the automobile industry
either here or abroad,
The splendid reception with which
the Nash light six has been met by
the public is due, / believe, to the
outstanding quality we have been
able to build into this car because of
our unsurpassed production ia
cilities."

Mussolini Says
No Threat in His
Visit to TripOli

Rome, April 9.-(By The Associat-
ed Press)-Premier Mussolini was
steaming across the Mediterranean
today for Tripoli, leaving Italy to the
care of the new Fascist directorate,
but before sailing he left a person
ally written message with officials of
the foreign Office calculated to re-
assure foreign powers that his dra-
matically heralded visit to Africa in
wolves no threat to the interests of
other countries.
MY voyage to Libya contains no
menace" the italian dictator wrote,
as set forth in a statement made by
officials today to a special cores
pondent of The Associated Press.
My voyage is merely a matter of
prestige. We wish to concentrate at
tention on our colonies, to make
them better known, better appreciate
ed and better developed. But 1 refer
only to the colonies we possess"
I The dramatic events of the past
three days in Italy-the attempt on
the premiers life and his spectacular
departure for North Africa-havs
brought the chief currents of the
Italian situation wildly to the sur
face. 1t was the fortune of the COR
respondent to reach Rome at just
such juncture. affording him an I'M
usual opportunity to observe the re-
action of the public to this striking
combination of events. The violent
outburst o fanger in Rome and other
cities when the news spread that a
foreigner had tried to kill Mussolini,
followed by manifestations of almost
delirious joy when the public learn
ed that the duce had been onl--
slightly wounded, could hardly be
taken otherwise than as testifying
strinkingly to the strength of the
national spirit which Mussolini
has engendered. To foreigners here
who have watched Mussolini's career
it affords new evidence that he holds
Italy lin the hollow of his hand"

Snow Disappearing
And River Is Rising

Thursdays rain removed the best
part of Gardeners mantle of snow,
and caused considerable rise in the
waters Of the Kennebec. There are
but few piles of snow in sheltered
places and these are rapidly dimin-
ishing. 1t is probable that this year
will find the country roads in worse
condition than they have been for
some time due to the lateness of the
season. Although all of the roads
leading from Gardiner are bare in
most places, there is still snow in
the country which makes the exact
method of travelling somewhat of a
problem.
The rain raised the flood question
once more, but river men declare
that a severe freshet is unlikely at
this time. The ice along the Gar
diner shore has weakened consider
able and there is open water both
above and below the bridge. The
main bulk of the ice is, however, in

within several days. or a stretch Of
more springlike weather the ice is
sure to be with us for at least ten
days. The average date of leaving
