Regional Managers View
Tests at Factory in
Detroit.

Following their first inspection
of the new Plymouth Motor Cor
poration plant in Detroit, regional
sales managers of the company re-
turned TO then territories this
week, extremely enthusiastic con-
corning the quality OF the Plymouth
car and the sales outlook for spring.
During the week, in addition to
witnessing modern, volume manu-
featuring methods at the plant, the

given by the factory sales organiza-
ton.
Van Der Zee, discussing the meet
ing, said.
Years OF association With auto
mobile companies have tamiliarized
these regional managers with mod
ern methods Of car manufacture,
yet they we're visibly impressed
with the new Plymouth plant, and
the eXacting methods employed in
building quality into this low priced
car.
Watching the various steps OF
manufacture, they frequently COM
mented upon the way each part was
tested before it entered into the
assembled product. Special inter-
est was shown in testing the
Plymouth crankShaft.
Costly apparatus, in charge of
highly skilled operators, tests the
balance Of these crankshafts stat
ically and dynamically with great
accuracy and rapidity. This &C
curacy of crankshaft balance is one
of the important factors that in
sures the quiet, smooth yet power

opens, the incoming fuel is drawn
right over the hot exhaust valve.
This has the effect tt. t all liquid
or unvaporized fuel particles are
subjected to the heat of the exhaust
valve and chamber, which dries and
vajorizes them for complete and
instant combustion. Next, the ex-
haust valve is SO swept by the in
coming cool mixture that it never
reaches the overheated condition
that is common with many other
engines. 81
By moderating the temperature of
the exhaust valve, our engineers not
only prevent pre-ignition and
knocking, but they case the motor
to utilize the entire gas charge, with
the result that our motor delivers
81 horsepower with a remarkably
low consumption Of fuel"

a city Of homes. In 1904 there was
only one bank here. Now there are

resources several millions more. The
city does not seem to be overbuilt,
like the boom places, and I have
seen very few vacant stores or
homes.
They are shipping cabbage and
lots of garden truck besides citrus
fruits. They claim to grow the
finest favored grapefruit in all
America here. 1t sure tastes
mighty good. While there is an
average annual rainfall of %
inches, this section has plenty of
water for irrigation, taken from the
Rio Grande river.
This is flat land, so level that

 WATSONEITES

KODIAK, July 24, Special to the GateWay)-With a release of 20,- 100000 young salmon this spring, the government fish hatchery at Litnik on Afognak Island creates a record for the past six years. With an exceptionally good run on, it now seems probable that they will collect between g and 30,000,0O0 eggs this season to hatch for next year F. L. Snipes, who has been in charge at the hatchery, where he has made 8 record and has been promoted to the government bio logical laboratory in Iowa where he will soon assume his duties, has some interesting observations to make concerning salmon culture in Alaska.
 ''Litnik was more or less of a dead one from 1912 to 1919," he said, because, if you remember, in June 1912, Katmai over in the Val ley or Ten IhOuSand smokes blew her head off, and almost buried Afognak and Kodiak Islands with volcanic ash. The scientists say that Katmai blew a cubic mile of earth into the air and I can well believe it from the evidences of volcanic ash or sand that exists to this day
 'The Litnik got 9 particularly heavy dose of it and naturally it killed all the fish deader than the proverbial mackeral. It took all those years from 1912 to 1919 to recover from the blast in a pisca- torial way. In 1919 and 1920 things began to pick up and about 35,- 100000 were put out but for some reason things fell off again in 1923. This year has been about the best

Films of metal so thin that they are

measured in the Bell laboratories In

Improve the design of photo-eleetric
cells for television, layers of light
sensitive metal known as rubfdium,
of various thieknesses, were deposited
inside glass tubes. When best results
were obtained with one particular
film, says Popular Science Mon hly,
the task remained to measure it.
Ordinary methods were out of the
question, for the metal particles were

method was devised Polarized light.
which is ordinary light shot through
a grating that changes a round"
beam into a fiat one, like toothpaste
issuing from tube, Is twisted in pass
ing through the metal rubidium; and
the amount Of twist depends upon the
metals thickness. By using polarized
light the experimenters found the
thickness of their best metal film to
be just one atom, or about 100000
900 of an inch.
