14 LIBERTY MOTOR IS GREAT NEW U. S. INVENTION Will Furnish Power to Sweep Boches From the Sky Washington, Sept* 18,—The great est American achievement of the war 1B declared td be the new air ship engine, completion of which was announced by the Secretary of War to-day. It Is to be called the Liberty motor. It IB an engine that equals in ef fectiveness if it does not excel all the British and French engines. Its parts have been bo standardised that manufacture Is poßßlble In a great number of factories all at the same time without the creation of new machinery or new plants. The great problem of successful airship manufacßire and operation by American forces has been solved and the promise of the most effective airship aid In winning the war is to be kept by this nation. Product of American (ienius Secretary Raker's remarkable story of the development of the engine follows: "The 'United States aviation en gine' has passed Its final tests. They were successful and gratifying. The new motor, designated by the signal service as the 'liberty motor,' is now the main reliance of the United States in the rapid production In large numbers of high-powered bat tleplanes for service In the war. In power, speed, serclveablllty and min imum weight, tho new engine invites comparlslon with the best that the European war has produced. "I regard the invention and rapid development of this engine as one o fthe really big accomplishments of the United States since its entry Into the war. The engine was brought about through the co-operation of more than a score of engineers who pooled their skill and trade secrots In the war emergency, working with the encouragement of tho aircraft production board, the war depart ment and the bureau of standards, "The story of the production of this engine is a remarkable one. Probably the war has produced no greater single achievements. "One of the first problems which confronted the war department and the aircraft production board after the declaration of hostlllUes was to produce quickly a dependable avia tion motor. Two courses were open. One was to encourage manufactur ers to develop their own types; the other to bring the best of all types together and develop a standard. "The necessity for speed and quan tity production resulted in a choice of the latter course, and a standard motor became our engineering ob jective. "Two of tho best engineers In the country, who had never before seen each other, were brought together at Washington and the problem of pro ducing an all-Amerloan engine at the earliest possible moment was pre sented to them. Their first confer ence, on June 3, lasted from after noon until 2.30 o'clock in the morn ing. Locked In liooms For Five Days "These two engineers were figura tively locked In a room in a Wash ington hotel and charged with the development of an airplane motor for use by American aviators over the battlefields of Eifrope. For five days neither man left the suite of rooms engaged for them. ConsulUng engineer and draftsmen from various sections of the country were brought to Washington to assist them. The work in the drafting room proceeded continuously, day and night. Each of the two engineers in immediate charge of motor development alter nately worked a twenty-four-hour shift. "An inspiring feature of this work Lemon Juice For Freckles Glrlal Make beauty lotion at homo for a few centa.

Street Car Conductor Knew What To Do When Stomach (Jot Too "Cranky" He Took Tanloc GOT HIS FAITH FROM HELP TAT*LAC HAD GIVEN OTHERS A. L. Althouse, 36 East German street, Lancaster, says: "1 had stom ach trouble with all the miserable feelings that belong with it. I had bloating, shortness of breath, palpi tation, a bad taste in my mouth and a coated tongue. I felt so distressed and tired all the time that I could not give my work the attention it should have had. Of course, my bowels were always sluggish. My appetite dwindled to nothing and I lost considerable flesh. I am sure that I would have had to give up work if I had not gotten some re lief. "I knew of the great good Tanlac | was doing for a number of people In this town and that gave me faith in it. I tried it myself and it did for me what other medicine failed to do I might as well say Tanlac cured me. My appetite is first-class, now. there's no more bloating, shortness of breath or any kind of distress aft er eating. Every bite I eat digests just right, my bowels couldn't act better, my tongue's cleaned off and the bad taste, left my mouth and I like street 'earring' now better than I have for years. In my case Tanlac did all for me that is claimed for it. Believe I've gained some weight." Tanlac, the famous reconstructive tonic, is now being Introduced here by Oorgas' Drug Store, who have se cured the exclusive sale of this mas ter medicine in Harrisburg. Tanlac la also sold at the- Oorgas Drug Store in the P. R. R. Station; in Carliale at W. Q. Stephens' Phar macy; Ellzabethtown, Albert W Cain; Oreencastle. Charles B. Carl, Middletown, Colin S.

I.ebo and William F, Lutz as regißtrarß for the new election district. Voters must register on Saturday Chief Clerk Ed. H. Fisher announc ed. It Is probable the commissioners will take definite action to-morrow and decide whether the voters may ballot for only ward offices or for the \ill list of city and county can didates. Both offlt-lal and specimen ballots have already been printed for the new ward It was announced. City officials may take no action on the election question leaving it en tirely to the Judgment of the county commissioners. Red Cross Forwards Supplies to France The workrooms of the Red Cross ! Ir, Walnut street will be open on j Tuesdays until after the first of Oc tober. The exact date will be an nounced later. Two cases of surgical bandagjos and clothing were sent to France to day by tho local chapter. Although the Red Cross is shipping a good amount of work to France, more workers Are needed in order that this chapter may flnich the amount of work that is asked by the Washing ton office. BRITISH IMPORTS GROW By Associated Hress London, Sept. IS.—The British Board of Trade figures for August show a remarkable increase in im ports of 24,475,000 pounds. Of this sum 10,000,000 pounds was in food, 7,000,000 pounds in raw materials. Including 8,500,000 In cotton, and 7,000,000 pounds in manufactured art articles. APPOINTED INSPECTOR The court to-day appointed George T. Burtnet majority Inspector of elections for the Fourth precinct, Tenth ward, to succeed the late Ed ward Saul. was the aid rendered by consulting engineers and motor manufacturers who gave up their trade secrets un der the emergency of war needs. Realizing that the new design would be a government design and no firm or individual would reap selfish benefit because of its making, the motor manufacturers, nevertheless, patriotically revealed their trade se crets and made available trade pro cesses of great commercial value. These Industries have also contribut ed the services of approximately two hundred of their best draughts men. "The two engineers locked togeth er in a hotel room in this city prom ised tho government if given an op portunity they would design a satis factory engine before a working model could be brought from Eu rope. "A remarkable American engine was actually produced three weeks before any model could have been brought from Europe. It was prom ised that this engine would be de veloped before the Fourth of July. Twenty-eight days after the draw ings were started the now engine was set up. This was on July 3. "In order to have the engine in Washington and in actual running order at the nation's capital on In dependence Day, the perfected en gine was sent from a western city in a special express car. The Journey was made in twenty-one hours and four young men guarded the engine en route to Washington and person ally attended to its transfer from one railroad to another. "With the need for speed as an incentive, tools for building the first engine were made even before the drawings were finished, on the as sumption that they would be correct. Made in Many Factories "Parts of the first engine were turned out at twelve factories, lo cated all the way from Connecticut to California. When the parts were assembled the adjustment was per fect and the performance of the en gine was wonderfully gratifying. This in itself demonstrates the capa bilities of American factories when put to the test and when thoroughly organized for emergency work of this sort. "One of the chief rules outlined at the beginning of the designing work was that no engineer should be permitted to introduce construc tion which had not been tried out- There was no time for theorizing. The new engine is successful because it embodies the best thought of en gineering experience to date. Not only did this country furnish ideas through celebrated consulting en gineers, but the representatives in the United States of England, France and Italy co-operated in the develop ment of this motor. "Thirty days after the assembl ing of the first engine preliminary tests Justified the government in formally accepting the engine as the best aircraft engine produced in any country. The final tests confirmed our faith in the new motor in every degree. "Both the flying and altitude tests of the new motor have been gratify ing. One test was conduoted at Pike's Peak, where the United State avia tion engine performed satisfactorily at. this high altitude. One of the en gines, in an airplane, broke the American altitude record in a recent flying' test. "While it is not deemed expedient to discuss In detail the performances and mechanics of the new motor, it may be said that standardization is a chief factor in the development of the government's motor. Cylinders, pistons and every other part of the motor have been standardized. They may be produced rapidly and eco nomically by a great many factories operating under government con tracts. They may he as rapidly as sembled, either by these plants or at a central assembly plant. "The new engine amounts practic ally to an international model. It embodies the best there is in Ameri can engineering and the best fea tures of European models, so far as It has been possible to adapt this lat ter to American manufacturing methods. "The two engineers most directly United States aviation engine had before them not only the blueprints and models of the most successful engines of war, but also every avail able American suggestion. Men skill ed in the invention of motor, both automobile and airplane, advised these engineers, who were charged with the duty of providing an uner lng motor which would embody every essential for wartime use. Non essential complexities were consist ently discarded by these engineers. The result was a composite deolgn of maximum power, minimum weight, great sped capability and adaptability to quick production- COMPANY C IS ANOTHER GUARD UNIT IN WHICH HARRISBURG BOYS PREDOMINATE Above is shown Company C, of Chambersburg, which left Tuesday for Camp Hancock.

Believes Superintendent Should Be Appointed Deputy Attbrney (General Keller to day gave an opinion to Representa tive H. M. Bhowftlter, of Ijewlshurg, representing the board of managers of the State Village for Keeble-Mlnd ed Woman to # the effect that the hoard should appoint a superintendent be fore proceeding with the building of structures contemplated by the ap propriation of 1917. Mr. Keller says that the act Indi cates that the Legislature thought that the advice and experience of a superintendent would be of benefit in the construction and equipment of the establishment. Tho first superln tent Is not In employ of the board now as the funds for the initlon con struction were exhausted some time ago and the village received no in- Mates.
