Mr.. Irwin realized that here was
a bright young man with a flu
ture. Accordingly he decided to
set him up in business.
Almost Immediately, Mr.. Cum
Minis turned his attention to Diesel
engines and, with Mr.. Irwin as his
financial hacker, attacked the
problem of applying the Diesel
engine to the automobile. The
task was a two-fold one. First
the weight per horsepower out
put of the Diesel had to be cut.
Next, its speed, that is, its r. p.
m. or revolutions per minute, had
to be increased.
The engine of a heavy-duty
gasoline truck weighs about %
pounds per horse power. Mr. Cum
minis has been able to do better
than that.
But Mr.. Cummins has not been
satisfied to make trucks only. His
goal is the passenger automobile.
In 1880 he put Diesel engine of
his own design in Packard Sc
dan. He drove to New York and
back, attaining a maximum speed
of SIS miles per hour on this trip.
Il
NEXT he put the same Diesel
~ engine in the chassis Of a
Packard roadster and drove to
Daytona Beach, Fla. There he
established a new record for speed
for Diesel automobiles-80 miles
an hour.

THREE recent announcements from scientific

advances IN the fed of medicine They may even
mark the start of a series of researches which will
end in the conquest of cancer.
The three concern our understanding of the
processes which go on in growth, respiration and
are

oxygen Is absorbed by the cell and utilized to pro-

associate, of a previously unknown growth sub

growth occurs in liver kale alfalfa, and to a lesser

associates at the Mayo Clinic. Rochester Mimi that
they have succeeded in isolating two substances
closely related to cortn, the hormone of the outer
layer or cortex of the adrena gland and that they
expect to isolate cortin itself shortly.
NEITHER the discovery of new vitamins nor Of
Y new hormones nor of other substances
which play vital roles in the processes of life will
surprise the scientist. For there is general feeling
that more of these substances than those known
must exist.
But their discovery only marks the first step in
series Of important ones. The three announcements
just cited will serve to illustrate these

Minis Engine Co., is a successful
manufacturer Of Diesel trucks.
The story of Clessie Cummins is
an American industrial romance.
In 1918 Mr.. Cunlmins was
chauffeur for Will c. Irwin, Co.
lumbus Qnd) capitalist and at
present a director of the United
States Chamber of Commerce. In
the spring of that year, the Irwin
family went to Canada, leaving
Cummins in Columbus.
Mr.. Cummins felt that he should
make a contribution to Americas
conduct of the war. The Irwin
garage was equipped with lathe
and other simple machine tools.
Consequently, he contracted with
the United States War Depart
ment to manufacture hubs for
transport wagons. The contract
called for only small number.
1t seems that the War Depart
ment was having difficulty getting
the sort of hubs it wanted. The
product turned out by Cummins
was satisfactory and almost i'm
mediately he found himself
Swamped with orders.
WHEN the Irwin family re-
w turned from Canada, they
found their automobiles stored in
a public garage while factory
was going "a hours day in their
garage. Mr.. Cummins had hired
enough helpers to keep going in
three eight-hour shifts a day.

Later he went with Mr.. Hull to
the Montevideo Conference, where
he took such meticulouS care of
his chief that eventually the
latter rewarded him with the
pivotal and all-important Western
European Division, despite the
fact that Jinmy's knowledge OF
Europe comes chiefly out of books
and rather thin books at that.
HOWEVER, it is not Mr.. Hulls

1t is true that Huey never was called on to use

Of course there was occasional talk of a march of
angry Americans armed with hunting rifles and
household pistols.
