LIGATER AUTOS SEEN N FUTURE Automobile Engineers at Present Engaged With Multi- Cylinder Designs. Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. DETROIT, September 13 —The light car of the future is occupying the at- tention of the engineering fraternity, but the possibilities of it appear to be visionary for four or five years yet. On two points the men who design the cars appear to be in agreement. One is that the future light cars, when they are evolved, will be in the “featherweight” class, as compared with those we use now. The other is that progress in met- allurgy will bring them into existence. The new phase which automobile de- sign now appears to be entering is that of multi-cylinder operation, es seen in straight and V-type power plants utiliz- ing eight, twelve and sixteen cylinders. Engineers Agree, ‘The engineers also agree that six- linder engines, having reached a max- imum of smoothness and efficiency, the aim is now to better their performance without Jimit on the number of cylin- ders, That means cars of somewhat greater weight and ability to consume fusl, but with the added advantages of “silkiness” in operation and greater speeds under less driving strain. When these reach the ultimate, then will come the truly light or feather- weight models that are a subject of * technical conversation now. Progress in metallurgy already has brought stainless steel to cars of the present. 1t is used for radiators and «small parts that require brilliancy of surface with resistance to rust and cor- rosion. Stainless steel is an alloy. Re- search in connection with it has directed effort also toward development of other alloys that the automobile factories are using for engine blocks to make cooling easter. In this the airplane engineers are taking a hand, because they too are in quast of engines that are lighter and easier on the oil. Foresees Radical Cars. ‘William B. Stout, who gained his ini- tial experience in the motor car field, is among those who insist that radical cars must come. He has said there is no reason why automobile engines cannot be built to- day that weigh only 2 pounds per horse- power, and at no more cost, considering the quantities produced. He believes it possible to build cars now that will give twice the performance of the present cars in everything except top speed. ‘They would be only half the weight, and still give greater comfort and hold the road better because of lightness. Even more radical than his idea is one expressed in print one year ago by Charles F. Kettering, official head of research of one of the large automobile corporations. “‘Within 10 years,” he is quoted, “au- tomobiles will safely travel 100 miles an hour, weigh less than 1,000 pounds, sell for less than $1,000 and cover 80 miles on one gallon of gasoline. “Lightness is one of the things we have learned from the airplane. Until ‘1)320, we usede boast of how heavy r cars were. Now a chief selling point is how light they are. . d “Aluminum, lynite and ‘invar’ all construction by came into automob way of the airplane.” Then Mr. Kettering told of a new metal that was being perfected which was 15 times stronger than nickeled steel, yet only one-third as heavy as aluminum. He intimated that use of such metal would allow four pounds q;:' horsepower in building engines. us a 50 horsepower engine would ‘Weigh only 200 pounds. Will Double Mileage. “Light weight and improved carbure- tion are going to double the mileage we get on gasoline. Many parts will bz eliminated on the aufomobile of the future. The method of gear-shifting is undergoing changes that will even- tually eliminate the cumbersome shift- ing lever. Shifting, braking and possibly steering will be part of the electrical system. ‘Body design,” he added. “is due for marked changes also. We are only beginning to learn the possibilities of the streamline body in reducing wind Tesistance.” That such theories are in no way Visicnary s shown by cufrent stories of progress the metallurgists are making. One is of a new metal called “beryl- lium” that has been produced, but at a cost approximating $200 a pound. It is two-thirds lighter than aluminum, and has been called “the king of metals,” because it possesses higher tensile strength than steel. Recent reports have it that a n:w process has been discovered whereby beryllium can be manufactured for less than $5 per pound. Its primary use would be for airplane construction o cut present weights in half. This would combine it with alumi- num in a new alloy metal, ar= experimenting with it say that it can be mixed with cobper to give an- | other alloy that could be used for auto- mobile springs lighter and stronger than any used today. With such metal to work with an| engineering knowledge making a pro- portionate advance, the day may come when full size cars can be built so light that the only spring suspension they would need would be under the seat, as on existing types of motor cycles. THE SUNDAY STAR, WA s sHINGTON, AMERICAN HISTORY BY MOTOR— TRAFFC FATALTY INCREASE SHOWN Death Rate Approximately| 100 Per Day, Says A. M. A, Deaths as the result of automobile accidents in the United States during 1930 will reach the appalling total of 36,000, or approximately 100 per day, according to estimates just made by the American Motorists’ Association. ‘The estimates are based on a pre- liminary survey for the first six months of this year, which shows that there has been an increase of 9 per cent in automobile fatalities, over the corre- sponding period of 1929. D. C. Improves. In the District of Columbia, however, comparative figures for the first six months of this year with the same period of last year sShow an improve- ment, During the first six months of 1930 a total of 32 persons were Killed by automobiles, compared with 49 killed the first six months of 1929. “Taking the country as a whole, at the same rate of increase, for the entire year of 1930, it will mean that a total of 36,035 persons will meet their death as the result of automobile accidents, representing an increase of 2,975 over the 1929 traffic toll, which was 33,060,” declares Thomas J. Keefe, general man- ager of the A. M. A, “The aggregate for the year, how- ever, will undoubtedly be even greater than the estimate shown, for the reason :hat an analysis of the automobile deaths for the past years show that the num- ber of fatalities the last six months of any given year is more than for the first six months. October, November and December, almost without excep- tion, show an increase over the re- maining nine months of each year in the numbers killed by motor vehicles. Death Rate Rises. “The death rate last year was one svery 16 minutes of the year. This year it will be one every 14.5 minutes, even | though there should be no increase the last six months of the year compared with the nut’.utx motnths.“ the A. M. A, statement nts out. “The gteF:’wst number of accidents, according to reports made to the De- partment of Commerce, occur between 5 and 6 o'clock, during the motor vehicle traffic movement homeward. The next most dangerous period of the day is between 7 and 8 p.m., while Sunday is the most dangerous day of the week, due of course to the increased use of | automobiles on that day,” the statement | concludes. NATIONAL PARKS REMAINING OPEN Labor Day Closing Rumor With- out Foundation, Says Interior Head. Labor day, which usually brings to a close the period of Summer vacations, does not affect th> national parks, many of them remaining open for Winter sports, according to the National Tour- ing Bureau of the American Automobile Association. Acting Secretary Dixon of the De- pertment of Interior has advised the American Automobile Association lhnt‘ there is no foundation for the rumor | that the national parks would close after | Labor day.

Edmund Stinnes of Berlin, Germany, ‘well known as the son of the late Hugo Stinnes, German industrialist and cap- italist, will attend the Sixth Interna- tional Road Congress in Washington October 6-11, it has been announced.

In the case | of the Yellowstone, for instance, ex-| perience has shown that this park is| freely accsssible to visitors up to Sep- tember 19, and the public utilities cater- ing to the comfort and convenience of the visitors are not closed until after this date. Even after the closing cate of the hotel, lodge and transportation accommodations, private automobiles carrying camping equipment arc per- mitted until snow closes the roads, usually about the middle of October. During this latter period informal living | accommodations may also be obtained | by motorists not desiring to camp.” The national motoring body said that | a number of national parks, notably | Yosemite, Sequoia and Gen. Grant, in | California; Mount Rainier, in Washing- ton, and Rocky Mountain, in Colorado, are open throughout the Winter months for snow and ice sports, while the South Rim of the Grand Canyon National Park, in Northern Arizona, is accessible throughout the year to trav- elers by rail and motor. 1,000 FIRST-AID STATIONS | PLANNED BY RED CROSS | Special Dispatch to The Star. | BALTIMORE, September 13.—The | auto accident toll in Maryland should | be cut down materially, Red Cross offi- cials declared this week, through their | contemplated establishment of 1,000 | emergency first-aid stations along | highways of the State.

IT ma of the g:n‘h‘-fi' t Pres- the United —Slebtcr‘ Chef g Nci| E Vehigin monim BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. Recent road building and allied trans- | portation developments in the areas in | Maryland and Virginia immediately around Washington indicate that be- | fore snow flies during the coming Win- | ter the transportation arteries within 100 miles of the Nation's Capital will be in the well known pink of condition. But in the meantime, while they are | being taken to the cleaners for reno- | vation, they are tantamount to nothing more than a pain in the neck. With the big-time racing season due | to start within a month at Laurel and | later at Pimlico, the Baltimore Pike, | favorite route of motorists to Baltimore | and the north out of Washington, is| so completely torn up this side of | Laurel that it is a first-class nuisance to fight one’s way through the maze ot trucks, road building machinery and men who make up that intricate mass | of mechanism known as road construc- | tion accessories. On the other pike to Baltimore, the Columbia Pike, running through Elli- | cott City, much the same process is under way. From the Patuxent River Bridge, a few miles northeast of Ash- ton, to a spot five miles north of Clarksville, the roadway is torn up, due to the shouldering process it is under- going, and travel along this road is hazardous and slow. Why is it that the Maryland road authorities insist on tearing up both roads at the same time is beyond knowing. but the fact, never- theless, is that Washington motorists going north through Baltimore over the main thoroughfares must put up with a good deal of inconvenience, dust and delay before they are in the clear on the north side of these road improve- ments and can move along at the 40- mile-an-hour pace the Maryland regu- lations permit. Down on the Defense Highway, the short cut to Annapolis, where a roadway was cut through virgin country a few | vears ago to provide a shorter route to | the Maryland State Capital than the | old Marlboro-Camp Parole road, widen- ing of the roadway by means of shoul- ders is going on in Anne Arundel Coun- ty, beyond the bridge over the Patuxent River. But this side of the Patuxent the road remains the same 16-foot-wide strip of concrete that has become known as & man-killer, and certainly is not a road where real pleasure may be had from a drive down through Maryland east of the Capital. On this road also remains one of those motor traps in the | way of narrow bridges, which so many people have called a disgrace to the State. Eventually this bridge over the tracks of the Washington, Baltimore Annapolis electric line will go the way | of all other narrow bridges, but for the present it remains as it has stood for years—a narrow causeway high in the air over the railroad tracks, with a blind approach to a raised middle roadbed, flanked by narrow wooden rails which would not take much push to precipitate an automobile right through them onto the railroad right-of-way, 30 feet below. | Why cars have not gone through tho: rails before is not known. Probably it the road know of that bridge and use extreme care in approaching it. But to a stranger, who trusts implicitly in the good road sense of the constructors, it is an extremely dangerous spot. Today the Baltimore Pike from | Hyattsville, to a spot near Laurel is torn up. Between Beltsville and Laurel | it is not so bad, for here the first sur- | face of asphalt has been laid on the | concrete base and a 40-mile speed along | this stretch is quite comfortable, ex-| cept near Laurel, where some final work is going on. But between Beltsville | and Hyattsville the road is really fierce. | Eventually it will become as the road | from Laurel to Halethorpe, a fine stretch of concrete where four cars can run, with the single exception of the road through Elkridge, which still is narrow. But at present that part of the road from Beltsville to Hyattsville is completely torn up and cannot be traveled at more than a slow pace. And eventually, also, the Maryland State | engineers will straighten out the kink in ! ridge. They are doing it now, saying their message of modern road construc- tion with great- scoops, with steam shovels and trucks as the kink is being straightened out which will carry the pike around Elkridge and re-join it again where the Patuxtent crosses the present road. Over on the Ellicott City road, from the Patuxent River bridge to a spot | well beyond Clarksville, the road is so | torn up that any kind of speed is im- | possible. This roadway is not being | widened as is the Baltimore Pike, for the road builders apparently have con- | sidered the Ellicott City road &s a| secondary and alternate route to Baiti-| more, holding that the Pike will be the main thoroughfare of thg future, as it has been in the past, e Ellicott City road is simply being shouldered, which it needed badly, but while' the construc- tion work is going on it is impossible to make any real time over the road. And as the situation stands at present one of the shoulders is down, while on the other side of the roadway there is a drop of 12 inches or more. To run up on the preserit shoulder may ruin tires, but a car must turn out for a passing car, and must also turn out to avoid the road builders at their work. Arrange- ments also are in progress for widening the Frederick road which connects with the Ellicott City Pike through Catons- ville into Baltimore. This roadway for | about two miles east of the Baltimore city line is an extremely narrow thor- oughfare, where two cars cannot pass in comfort. Widening here is badly needed. Meanwhile on the western side of the city repairs are rapidly going forward on the Warrenton road, which shortly will provide an all concrete and maca- dam surface straight through from Key Bridge to Warrenton. Just now the road is badly torn up a few miles from Warrenton, but most of the surface is in fine condition, and the motorist can speed along at that laudable 45 miles an our rate specified in the new Virginia speed regulations. Going west and north toward Fred- | erick, over the mountain road through the Alleghenies to the west, the bridge over the Monocacy River, which col- lapsed several months ago, is being re- aired, and this roadway is out of use. ere are, however, two alternate routes, corps will consist chiefly of women.

Many Washington motorists, going north toward Atlantic City and New York, and desiring to avoid Baltimore and Philadelphia, have recently hit upon a satisfactory alternate route, which carries them over onto the Eastern Shore of Maryland, across a ferry to New Jersey and up the Jersey Coast to New York. ‘This road may be taken over the De- fense Highway through Bladensburg to Annapolis, across the new Kent Island Ferry, thence up through Maryland and Delaware through Dover to Newcastle, Del.; across the ferry at Newcastle, and thence to the Jersey Coast and north to New York.

Damascus, and | GAREFUL DRIVING Maryland Commissioner Asks Motorists to Safeguard Children. Speclal Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, September 13.—With the opening of schools this week, E. Austin Baughman, commissioner of motor vehicles, issued a statement call- ing attention of motorists to the neces- sity of exercising special alertness and care while driving over the main high- ways of the State. In addition to the school children who walk to and from their schools or who are playing about the highways during their recess periods, Mr. Baugh- man said, care should be exercised in approaching or passing the school busses operating to consolidated schools in the rural sections. Need of Caution. “The motorist must realize,” the commisisoner said, “that wherever chil- dren are adjacent to or upon the thor- oughfares the utmost cautiousness is necessary in approaching or passing such a point. “The injuries and deaths of children originate primarily from youngsters be- ing on highways or entering them sud- denly and thoughtlessly at a position too close to the moving vehicle to pre- “The main cause of such accidents is the failure of the childish mind to real- ize or appreciate the dangers which are 80 obvious to the mind of an adult. In addition, the child at play has noth- ing in mind but the game he is engaged in. His whole mental and physical en- ergy is concentrated in that one thing. He is thoughtless of everything else. Responsibilities. “These very conditions place upon | the operator of a motor vehicle added and very real responsibilities. He must | assume not only his own usual respon- | sibility, but also the responsibility that | would rest upon the child if the child were a responsibile and loglcsl-thmking’ rson. | “In other words. the child is in a morally ‘privileged’ clossification and | must be given opportunity to reach a safe location before the motorist pro- | ceeds, and that even then he must be| very much on the alert, as children are much given to changing their minds | they came from.” UNIFORM TAGS USED Maryland Places Markers on Po-! lice and Fire Department Autos.

The tags | are the result of Automobile Commis- | sioner Baughman's plan to have all | police and fire apparatus in Maryland | carry the same style of iag. The markers were placed on all au- tomobiles, ambulances, engines, patrol | cars, trucks and other vehicles of the | two departments. Each machine is | given a special designation denoting the branch of service to which it is e e attached. o X0 BAN SIGN DEFACEMENT Eighteen States Legislate Against Road Marker Marring.
