The United States government has
learned that the success of the Ger-
man airplanes is largely attributable
to what is known as kaiser zinn meteal,
which Ms used for the motors. A
piece of this metal was picked up by
a British soldier who brought down a
German taube. It interested him so
much that he subjected it to a scien-
tific test and discovered that it con-
sisted of the following: Copper, 1.58
ports; tin, 92.98 parts, and antimony,
0.44 parts. : :
This zlloy, which is somewhat akin :
to Britannia metal, was discovered by
the Germans about 50 years ago. They
first used it as a substitute for silver
