One of the best explanations
Of why present day gasoline
sometimes results in starting
trouble is furnished by F. f..
Van Halteren. technical man.
acer Of the central service divi-
sion. Chrysler Corp.
'In comparing the combustion
Of the present-day fuel to that
of prewar years we can use the
illustration Of starting a fire
with coal or wood" says Van
Halteren. ON starting n fire you
usually have paper, kindling and
coal or wood in fairly large
pieces. If YOU tried 10 start
fire without kindling. YOU would
he removing the lighter quail
ties that have been taken from
the present fuel.
This fuel gives n similar COM
bustion without the lighter
qualities To make the gasoline
burn readily. This results in flat
spots in acceleratiOn until the
engine il warmed To the speci-
fed operating temperature. The
quicker engine heat can he in

Air Tractor Units

A new ception Of the
freighter plane Of tomorrow,
based on the necessity for cut
ting down present excessive
loading time. was presented 10
the National Air Cargo meeting
of the sac by Harry s. Pack
of Pea.
The Pea proposal is an aerial
adaptation OF the high waY
tractor-trailer units. The new
PCA-designed plane, like its
highway counterpart would IN
clude a detachable part OF the
ships fuselage-the cargo unit.
Two types of proposed Cargo
liners are suggeSte d. The
Alpha type of freight-plane
has a large body, or tuSelage,
the ma ior- part Of which would
easily he dismounted. Each
plane would have two or more
fuselage-cargo-units which. like
highway trailers. would be in
various stages Of loading while
the tractor part Of the plane
would be flying with a fully
loaded cargo unit.
The Beta type would be
particularly adaptable TO the
rapid transportation OF bulk
items such as gasoline, milk. or
solidly packed materials. The
fully loaded cargo container,
resembling a streamlined tank,
would be attached underneath
the plane. This tractor would
be able TO fly without its cargo
unit underneath, If required to
serve as a glider tractor.
