routes over the top of the Andes to the

COUTH AMERICA, with it's great
~ mountain walls and it's UNEMPLOYED
interior expanses, holds a constantly
compelling lure for aviators. It prob
ably is the desire to conquer this snow
clad top of the southern world. with its
storms and treacherouS winds, rather
than the practical results to be obtained,
that challenges the explorers of the air
at present.
Talking to aviators in South America,
it is not infrequent to find one who can
tell you of flying over the Andes. But
always 1t Is a story which conveys the
pride of having been where few other
people have been.
IL New York a few days ago a nan
sat in an Office in ~Forty-second street
and told of his own flight over the more
northerly and even more hazardous
transcontinential route which follows
the Amazon River. There is little doubt
that some day that weird and prodigious
stream will mark the course of the air
highway which will tie Brazil to Peru,
Ecuador and Colombia. Air dreamers
already are projecting the service, to
be carried out by amphibian planes
which could use the bosom of the river
for landing purposes whenever it might
become necessary to come down in the
tremendous unmarked wilderness of
Central Brazil.

RIGID TESTS
GIVEN FINISH
OF CHRYSLERS

If the world 8 worst automobile
driver could take a Chrysler cal
and drive it for days IN the worst
of weather and over the world s
worst roads, the punishment the
car would receive would not be
equal to, nor would it even approx
mate, the punishment inflicted
upon ears under test in the engi-
neering laboratories of the Chrisler
Corporation at Detroit'' This is
the statemen of j. w. Frazer, gen
eral sales manager of the Chrysler
Sales Corporation.
Gin building Chryslef cars;;n he
continued, ''no part is considered
too small nor too insignificant to
receive the most thorough tests that
the engineers are able to devise for
it.
An example of this was brought
out recently when certain make
of chromium plated door handle
was considered for use on Chrysler
ears. Before Chrysler engineers
would consent to its being placed
in production on the cars, it had to
pass several rigid tests the most
important of which was the salt
spray test. Those who live near
the sea shore know that salt is one
of the worst known corrosive agents
and to prove the ability of the
chromium plate on these door han
dies to withstand corrosion, sam
pies of the door handles were lashed
for hours by a strong saline bath.
1t was only after they had survived
this test without harm that they
were considered eligible for use on
Chrysler cars.
"Tests given other parts of
Chrysler ears are just as rigid. a
Chrysler body, for example, is TAX
en- from the assembly line and
placed i'll a compartment that is
lined with steam pipes. The dool
is closed, the steam is turned on and
the mercury in the thermomete
mounts to a blistering temperature
Only the finest of finishes =. can
withstand the ravages Of this ter.
rifle heat test but unless the
Chrysler body can stand it without
harm to the finish, it is not fit to
be placed upon the Chrysler chassis
