AMAZING CAR ECONOMY.
- |
If the dream of some of the coun- j
try’s leading metallurgists comes true I
and the price of aluminum through a;
much greater output is brought down
materially in price, it is likely to com-
pletely revolutionize engineering prac-
tice. It has been pointed out that in
the automobile industry alone the use
of cast aluminum for cylinder blocks
would cut 35 to 40 per cent from the
weight of the engine, thus contribut-
ing materially to the performance of
the car as well as to its economy.
The possibilities of aluminum cylin-
der block castings as well as its use
for an infinite range of other pur-
poses, both in the automotive field and
from coast to coast at a fuel cost of
a little over $7. It has shown on tests
throughout the country that it trav-
eled for about one-seventh the cost
of a similar gasoline powered unit.
This engine employs Bohnalite alumi-
num alloy for the cylinder blocks, cyl-
inder head, crankcase and other im-
i portant units.
A similar employment of aluminum
! in gasoline engines would likewise in-
i' crease their efficiency and economy,
I engineers declare.

Paramount News
Obsolete, unenforceable and absurd
laws which encumber our statute
books have long been the subject of
discussion!' and criticism, but it has so
far seemed almost impossible to in-
duce legislators to do anything to
change the situation.
It has been suggested that occa-
sionally a session of Congress and the
various legislatures should be devoted
exclusively to the repeal of such su-
perfluous laws, so as to relieve the
congestion and confusion which now
exists because of their continuance in
force, theoretically, if not in fact.
Another suggestion, even more de-
sirable and practical, it seems to us,
has been offered by the Chicago Daily
News, which may or may not be orig-
inal with that newspaper. In an edi-
torial which points out the absurdity
of many of our laws which were en-
acted “as the result of some forgotten
gus^j of public opinion or the whim of
some legislator,” it concludes with
this recommendation:
“It should be settled legislative
policy to repeal all laws, not re-en-
acted or amended, after 20 years. If
state constitutions provided for the
automatic death of all laws not re-
enacted after a certain number of
years, legislation would become morfe
j a business and less a farce.”
EASY TO EQUIP HOME.
Thousands of families are taking
advantage of the National Housing
Act to give their homes proper mod-
ern electrical equipment. There never
has been a period when appliances
have been installed as rapidly as they
are at present.
Families are equipping their homes
with modern washers and ironers fast-
er than ever before, now that they
have discovered the ease and economy
with which this can be done. There
is no reason for anyone to bother
longer with out-of-date or expensive
laundering methods.
Never before in the whole history
of electrical appliances has it been so
easy to enjoy such home conven-
iences as it is now. For any man of
ordinary good credit standing who
wants to provide his wife with house-
keeping aids, the whole procedure is
extremely simple.
He need not be a property owner.
The appliances are selected. The cus-
tomer and the dealer visit a co-oper-
ating bank. The buyer is lent $150,
j say, and promises to repay over a pe-
' riod of one to three years, at 5 per
cent. The dealer obtains the full pur- ^
chase price at once and delivers thejiD Kingsville during the week-end.
appliances without delay. The buyer'
simply makes a monthly payment to
the bank.
Many families desire new equip-
ment but have a distaste for ordinary
time payment methods. These look
with favor on the new Washington
plan of a simple bank transaction
with no mortgage involved, an ar-
rangement encouraged and supported
by the government. The economy of
the plan is its greatest advantage.
For example, a family can invest $150
in a washer and ironer and make the
entire transaction for as little as $4.80
monthly.
