SWEDEN FINDS ANSWER
 EMPLOYMENT PROBLEM

STOCKHOLM, Aug, g, (P)-From 1914 to 1924 Sweden spent $64, 4,100,- 900 for relief of unemployed, says a report of the State Unemploy- ment Commission.
 At present the number of unem- ployed in Sweden shows a mini mum figure, but the number regis tered during 1922 averaged about 150,000 every month. Only about one-fifth of the entire sum spent was given as doles, the rest being used on constructive unemployment relief
 The works included the repairing of roads, building new roads and railroads of a total length of more than 1900 miles, farm improvement and the building of 54 recreation grounds.

AUTO ENGINEERS
TO MEET OCT. "a
Production Equipment and Meth
DDS to Be Discussed at
Cleveland Session.

Automobile production equipment and
methods are to be discussed at three
day national meeting of the Society Of
Autonotive Engineers to be held in
Cleveland on october 2, 3 and 4. This
meeting is to be conducted in co-opera-
ton with the National Machine Tool
Congress and the American Society OF
Mechanical Engineers.
In paper to be presented In the eve
ming of the first day, Prof. F. E. Ray
mond of the Massachusetts, Institute Of
Technology will tell the results of an
exhaustive study he has been making
of the question of the most economical
production quantities in the automotive
field The second evening is to be de-
voted to a forum of discussion of ma
chine tools, when to replace machine
equipment and the sychronizing Of
automobile parts at the assembly lines.
An informal production mems dinner Is
to conclude the meeting on the third
evening.
Motor vehicle transportation men are
to discuss their problems at four-day
national transportation meeting Of the
society in Toronto, Canada, from Mo-
vember IL to Is. Seven technical SEES
sions are to be held and in addition
there will be a transportation mems
dinner the evening of the third day and
inspection visits on the afternoon of the

METAL GAS MIXTURE
AS FUEL IS FORESEEN
Possibility of New Development
Presented to Society Meeting
in Cleveland.

Possibility of the automobile OF the
future operating on gas generated by
the mixing of a piece OF metal In a
small tank of newly developed gas
was suggested by Robert 9. Guthrie,
Chicago, vice president Of the Amerl-
can Society of Steel Treating, at o Ses-
sion of the annual Metals Congress In
Cleveland.
He predicted that within the near
future steel workers would be able to
change the entire structure of steel by
the use of gas.
MANY processes have already been
developed with the use OF controlled
gaseous atmospheres," Guthrie declared,
"such as carburiZing, nitriding steel Tor
hard surfacing, bright annealing to pre-
serve the exterior finish through COM
plicated processing.
"At present research along the line
of atmospheric steel treatment has been
confined largely to the use of ordinary
household Illuminating gas and its by
products, which contain nitrogen, ny
drogen, carbon dioxide and moncxide
and methane and the illuminants.
THE old method of softening X-ray
tubes by piping hydrogen through
solid platinum wire is we'll known, and
experiments have proven that other
gases are capable of passing through
SO-calleQ SOllQ metals. Ills opens Tie
possibility of changing the internal
structure of metals by the uses of gases
under proper temperatures and condi-
tions.
Mystery surrounds the affinity Of
metals and gases, and the researches of
the future will tend to solve that afin-
ity. A common example is the ethyl
gasoline used in automobiles, in which
a minute quantity of lead tetraethyl
completely alters the properties of gaso-
line

FLEEING TOURISTS
ARE GIVEN A JOLT
California Thwarts Speeding
Across County Line to Avoid
"Traffic Ticket"

SACRAMENTO, Calf. (R.-The day
Of speeding across county line to avoid
being presented q trafic ticket is over
In California.
The formation Of q State highway
patrol Of nearly 500 Officers abolishes
dual State-county enforcement of mo-
tor vehicle laws and centralizes the re-
Sponsibility. Under the general head
for criminally careless, drunken and in
competent drivers were stiffened.
Frank q. Shook Is chief of the State
division of motor vehicles and will have
for his superintendent Of the mobile
force Eugene BiscailuS, for more than
20 years a deputy sheriff In Los An
geles County.
The patrol, O mobile body able to
meet emergencies In any portion Of the
State, can be assigned to any area
where there Is an unusual traf1lc move
ment. The trafflc officers, now able to
pursue fleeing autoistS from one county
the number of fatalities caused by
speeding and reckless driving, as well
as minimize automobile theft.
BiScailuZ points out that his men also
will reduce the use Of motor cars
In other criminal activities. II crime
Is committed q large force Of the pa
trolmen can be sent to the vicinity to
guard all highways.
Automobile associations see another
benefit in q State motor patrol. Traffic
enforcement will become uniform and
enforcement for revenue. instead of pro-
lection Of life and property, can be
nullifled.
There have been instances, the Cali
fornia Automobile Association cites,
where officers, informed that city or
county treasures were low in funds,
rounded up motorists to reduce the
deficit.

HUMIDITY REDUCES
CAR MOTORS POWER
Tests Of Bureau Of Standards Ex-
pert Show Effects Of Mois-
ture in Air.

Tests show that q linear or direct re-
lation exists between motor-car engine
power and humidity in the atmosphere,
the loss Of power being approximately
equal to the humidity, which is
expressed as per cent of the total pres
sure, according to Donald B. Brooks Of
the Bureau of Standards.
The theory is that water vapor,
which does not play a direct part in
the combustion processes, does displace
the chemically active oxygen in the linn
tied volume Of the cylinder and hence
less fuel can be burned efflciently per
cycle and correspondingly less power is
obtained.
In addition to the direct effect due to
displacement of oxygen, humidity also
has some indirect effects on power, tests
showing a decided increase in optimum
spark advance with humidity. For an
engine which operated at a single COM
preston ratio, the increase of spark
advance was found to be degrees per
centimeter Of humidity, irrespective of
the fuel used. This increase Of spark

eminent took in the roads of the coun-
try. In January, 1928, however, after
the creation Of highway department
under the ministry Of agriculture, COM
merce and industry, the subsidies were
increased. They now range from Sis
to $1.SSo per mile. according to the
nature Of the road building.
Special Highway Fund Ordered.
In April Of last year there was en-
acted a law providing for a special fund
for highway construction and main
tenance, carrying increased import
duties on automobiles, buses, trucks,
motor cycles, bicycles ana their Access
series. Later these rates were further
increased to bring the revenues UP to
the figure 10000 contos, or $2,336, 900
per year expected from the law.
The law also authorized the issuance
Of bonds with q nominal value Of one
conto, approximately $120 at the rate Of
exchange at that time. The operation
Of the law failed to produce all of the
results desired. 30 bonds were Issued to
the extent Of nearly 100000.

1929 ROAD BUILDING IN BRAZIL
EXPECTED TO SHOW INCREASE
Construction Ordered, Based on Growth
!. of Automobile Import Tax, About
Treble That of Last Year.

Legislation for road building and
great increases In automobile imports,
chiefly from the United States, the
duties on which are applied to road

in Brazil this year, as compared with
last year, according to report on road
construction financing in South Amer
lea Just prepared by Frank Curran,
highway specialist Of the Department
OF Commerce.
Building up of the highways Of our
South American neighbor Is expected to
open a vast field for the sale Of Ameri-
can automobiles. and the motor indus
try already Is feeling some OF the effect
Of Brazil'S road improvement plans as
Is evidenced by the increased autonlo-
bile imports.

small and inadequate subsidies were
paid the states by the government) as
Just another step up the ladder toward
the dream of highway engineers Of this
country-a system of highways that
would permit automobile travel from
the Mexican border through Central
America and throughout South America.
Mr.. Curran describes Brazil as
loosely knit federation Of autonomous
states which finance and construct their
own roads, assisted, to a certain extent,
until recent years, by federal subsidies
taken from the national general rev.
enues. Subsidies amounting to not
more than about $500 a mile, on sec

also were granted individuals, or COM
panies, and to cities.
Until 1927 there had been no effort
to establish federal highway system
and the subsidies represented practi-
cally the only interest the federal gov
