THE FASTEST CAR

1t is Interesting to know that automobile can so
as fast as 2O7 miles an hour. Now that that's done
newspaper readers make mental note of it and turn
to something else Faster speeds still will come, and
bring little surprise. When the 300-mies-per hour
arrives, who will care?
There is no utility in such as Segraves. What
automobilist wants, for his own use his famiys
freak weighing four tons, about 20 feet long built
like sewing machine shuttle. with two 12-cylinder
motors furnishing 600 horsepower?
There is mechanical interest in it. and sporting in
terest-that is all The chief thing learned from Sc
graves performance, apparently, is that at such tre
mendous speeds, automobiles must be rebuilt fer steer
ing and brakng because they cannot be controlled by
present mechanism. But is it worth while?
1t is questionable whether any human being has any
business going fast 200 miles hour in any ter
restrial vehicle. At any rate in individual vehicle
depending on human control every moment II we
to travel at such speeds regularly, there must be
tomato safety mechanisnls. And it may not be worth
while to develop them because the air is the natural
medium for rapid speed Let the builders of speed-ma
chimes concentrate aircraft, and accomplish
something worth while.
