Gas Consumption (Continued from Page 1) U.S. gallon at 40 miles per hour. This stock engine is rated as one of the most efficient in the U.S. automotive industry today. 5 Reasons For Economy Difference in economy per- forman of the two engines was at- tributed to: 1. Combination of an increased compression ratio and a improved Hydra-Matic transmission coupled with the "19XX" engine. Mr. Mc- Cuen said the new unit was develop- ed by GM's Transmission Division. 2. Fuel of higher octane rating than is available today commercial- ly. It was used in the "19XX" en- gine, while the 1951 stock engine burned gasoline of today's octane level for which it was designed. Purpose of the "19XX", and other Research Laboratories test engines, was to explore possibilities of utiliz- ing to utmost efficiency type of fuels that petroleum refiners con- sider feasible In the future. Impact of these economy gains would affect not only the passenger car, largest consumer of the nation's petroleum reserves, but also farm tractors, miiltary vehicles, boats and highway trucks, Mr. MoCuen declared. "Large gains in economy were confirmed by further tests on the 1951 and '19XX' cars made under city traffic and open highway driv- ing conditions," he said. "From all our experience, it would be con- servative to say that a saving of 30 per cent over present fuel con- sumption is possible with a ocom- bination of 12-to-1 engines and new types of automatic transmissions." Mr. McCuen expressed hope that the "19XX" engine tests would help both the petroleum and automotive industries in planning their futures. "The data represent confirmed results of laboratory and road tests on practical multi-cylinder auto- mobile engines and not conjecture and speculation," he commented. This engine research is continu- ing, and, guided by past experience, Mr. MéCuen said he was confident further improvements were possible in fuel economy. "Sometime in the future," he de- clared, "It may be practical to in- crease compression ratios above our present experimental 12-to-1 en- gines with still higher gains in ef- ficiency. . . . "If we can reach the present ob- jective of 12-to-1 engines in pro- duction cars, which will give us an additional 30 per cent increase in efficiency, large savings will result to our economy, to the petroleum industry and to the automobile in- dustry," he said. Co-operation between the two in- dustries in raising fuel octane levels and capitalizing on them by better engine design would save United States motorists $2,500,000,000 (bil- lion) a year in fuel bills and spare the economy 10,500,000,000, (billion) gallons of gasoline snnually, Mr. MoCuen estimated, Increased Compression Answer He related that for almost 78 years engineers have "recognized that the fundamental method of in- creasing engine efficiency is to in- crease compression ratio." GM Re- search engineers continue to be- lieve this remains the main avenue of future improvement, he said. 'They have investigated all pos- sible factors for increasing engine efficiency, including exhaust valve cooling, piston cooling and coatings on combustion chambers, Similarly, Mr. McCuen declared, engines of many types have been examined--diesels, semi-diesels and other oil-burning engines of many designs, together with value meéch- anisms of slide, sleeve, piston, ro- tary and almost every conceivable configuration. "Two-cycle engines, supercharged engines and fuel injectors have been given extensive development. This constant search for a better power plant is continuously being carried on today. Probably no single pro- duct in history has been given so much consideration by organized re- search laboratories or individual in- ventors as the automobile," Mr, Mc- Cuen declared. "The most promising field for future improvement still seems be further development of the spark-ignition four-cycle engine. . . . "We believe that commercial de- velopment within the next few years will be found somewhere be- tween our present production de- signs of 7.5-to-1 compression ratio and the compression ratios repre- sented by these experimental 12-to- 1 engines. "The extent to which this trend can be applied commercially will depend on progress that can be made with 'mechanical octane num- bers' (which designers build into engines) and the extent to which technological progress in the petro- leum industry permits the general distribution of fuels of higher octane number (or 'chemical octane num- bers' that refiners can 'build into' future fuels). "We are sure that normal com- petitive forces operating in a free economy will determine how high it is commercially possible to go in increasing compression ratios and octane number of fuels," Mr. Mc- Cuen said. THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE cent, Mr. McCuen reported, while from 1815 to "19XX" the increase was approximately 200 per cent. He explained that Cadillacs were selected because ever since 1915, when Cadillac introduced the first American V-8 engine, only engines of the "V" type had been produced by Cadillac Motor Division. In addition, he presented exten- sive GM Proving Ground data, never before disclosed, covering US. automobile progress from 1930 to 1950 which he prefaced with this comment: "I sometimes think we do not make our industrial story known generally enough and the technical accomplishments are not interpret- ed to those in other fields. Per- haps those not connected with in- dustry can be excused since tech- nological improvements come slowly and in small increments. "It is only when data over a period of years are analyzed that the magnitude of the work be- comes evident. On the other hand, the answers to our economic prob- lems frequently come out of the re- search laboratory in our modern society." The Summary Between 1980 and 1950 average curb weights of 20 cars made by 16 manufacturers increased from 3,500 to 8,750 pounds. Simultaneously, very large cars were reduced ap- proximately 1,000 pounds in weight while small cars increased approxi- mately 500 pounds. The spread between heaviest and lightest cars was smaller in 1950 than in 1980, an important fact in analysing overall car improve- ment. Rated average or rose from less than 76 in 1930 to ap- proximately 130 in 1950. This was necessary for better car performance (Acceleration, hill climb, ete.) de- manded by "automobile-wise" cus- tomers. By 1960 the spread between low and high horsepower values was 85 to 160. Part of the horsepower rise re- sulted from compression ratio in- creases, an average net charge of two ratios in 21 years. Most newer engines now have 7.5-to-1 ratio, highest possible with today's fuels, while lowest ratio in 50 was 6.5- to-1. Compression ratio increases would have been impossible without petro- leum refiner peration in prod ing improved fuels between '30 and '50, Countrywide fuel surveys show thet average rises were as follows: Regular gasoline--80 to 84 octane number, a gain of 24; premium gasoline--T74 to 90-plus, an increase of 16. Average automobile top speed rose from 66 miles an hour to ap- proximately 90 miles an hour, "a natural result of work to give bet- ter acceleration and hill climb at all speeds." Since resumption of auto produc- tion in 1946, data indicate "we have several low performance models and a number of very high performance cars. The low cars have sacrificed performance to gain economy (miles per gallon), Mr. McCuen explained. "However," he added, "it was in- teresting to note that the highest performance (1950) cars represented those with the most modern high compression engines and were at the same time the most economical. Constant Upward Trend "Many people," he declared, "think the automobile industry has sacrificed economy when it has in- creased performance and sise of the car over the years. The aver- age . .. of level road constant speed economy at 20, 40 and 60 miles per hour show that there has been a constant upward trend in miles per gallon. "Por instance, at a cruising speed of 40 miles per hour, the average has increased from approximately 15 miles per US. gallon to almost 20 miles per U.S. gallon from 1930 to 1950. This is more than 30 per cent increase in economy even though our automobiles have be- come larger and faster. A large in- crease is noted at all speeds from the lowest to the highest," he, said. These gains, he estimated, have meant the following to the aver- age motorist: The Automobile Manufacturers Associafion figures average motor vehicle mileage is 9,550 a year. If to | a motorist drove that distance to- day in a 1930 car, he would need 215 US. gallons more fuel than he now uses at an additional cost to him of $54. The 1930 car owner would buy 52 eighteen gallon tanks full, the 1960 owner would buy 40 tanks full, a saving of a dozen tanks a year. If a 1050 owner burned the same 935 gallons annually required of a 1030 car for 9,560 miles, he could drive almost 3,000 miles farther or virtually across the continent. Since average life of the car now in use if 13.6 years, this means 30,- 000 free miles built into every car which comes off the assembly lines --compared with 1830 cars. "These are the economic gains the petroleum and automotive industries have made together over a period from 1930 to 1950 and have passed on to their customers," he declared. New Prospects Open In addition to future fuel savings high compression engines will yield to the petroleum industry, new pros- pects also are open to the automo- tive industry, Mr. McCuen explain. The "19XX" engine in the 51 ed. Cadillac was part of a demonstra- tion quartet of Cadillacs that Re- search Laboratories used in its en- gine-fuel survey. Two of the cars, the "19XX" special and the 1951 stock. Cadillac, were inspected by the Canadian SAE members, All four cars underwent months of road and laboratory testing in a project believed the first of its kind. Test were comparative with each car burning the type of fuel used during its model year, Effectiveness Measured Thus it was possible not only to measure effectiveness of engine im- provement but also fuel progress over a 36-year span. In addition to the "19XX" Cadillac, the quartet included 1915, 1935 and 1951 stock models. Following were the results: Miles Per U.S, Gallon Model at 40 MPH. Max. Speed 1916 95 56 1936 13 1951 198 928.5 19XX 278 100.26 86.1 Between 1915 and 1961 miles per gallon increased more shan 100 per "An engine with the necessary power can be built smaller and will occupy less space under the hood. It will be lighter and use less ma- terials, When the engine is lighter, other parts of the chassis can be made smaller, "Since less heat is wasted in the cooling water, smaller radiators are possible using less copper. Since engine size and weight frequently limit designers of chassis and body, new possibilities in appearance may be opened up.' "There is so much interdepsnd- ence of one component of a oar with another that I'm sure any- thing which so greatly changes the engine picture will change the rest of the car," he said, Explaining the that went into design of the "19XX" en- gine, Mr. MoCuen made this com- ment: > "The displacement fo the 12-to-1 engine was chosen for these com- parative tests to give about the same horsepower characteristics and hence the same road perfor- \ Oshawa. dnd Duatrict WINDOW SMASHED A plate glass window in the Casino Restaurant, King Street West, was smashed last night, As the result of an altercation between two cus- tomers a glass of milk was thrown through the window.

CHURCH PARADE CANCELLED 'The Boy Scout Church' Parade, originally scheduled for this Sun- day. afternoon has been postponed until early in September. This move was made by the Scouter's Club, when it was learned that the Minis- terial Association were unable to arrdngé an afternoon service for | bul the Scouts on Sunday, May 20. UAW Seeks to Add 250,000 Members Detroit, May 19 -- OP) -- A drive to add 260,000 more members was of ' the United Auto Workers (CIO.). Major emphasis will be on com- petitive shops, foundries, agricul- tural implement plants and Cana- dian industries. LEAVE LAKE SUCCESS Lake Buccess, May 10 (AP)--The The United Nations held its final meetings Friday at the headquarters here, where it had operated for nearly five years. The first meeting at Lake Success was in August, 1946. Future meetings of UN. organs will be held in the new building in Manhattan, and temporary at Flushing Meadow until all the facilities of the new building become available, mance as is obtained in the 1961 Cadil'ac. . Tis, in the ' .' car, the ex- perimental high compression en- gine demonstrates clearly the fuel economies which are possible with this power plant-transmission com- bination, "While we believe that present performance characteristics are adequate from the standpoint of existing ic conditions and available roads, the possibilities of modifying this design to provide greatly increased horsepower with substantial savings in fuel econ- omy over existing engines are vir- tually unlimited. "Of course, a 12-t0-1 engine with the same displacement as the 1951 Cadillac is capable of developing greatly increased horsepower in n with the engine used in these tests, In fact, we are certain we canp rovide any power demand- ed by the customer." The GM Research fuel-engine survey, Mr. McCuen concluded, "shows what progressive industry can do in a constructive way to bring the economic result of re- search and engineering to our en- tire economy. The effects will be important in peace and war. We will again justify the accomplishments in making industrial progress through intelligent change." Economies Very Similar "Canada and the United States have much in common in all fields of interest," the speaker declared. "Our economies are very similar in many respects. I can't think of a better example of this than our mutual dependence on rubber-tired transportation. We are the only two countries in the world that could earry our entire population at one time in our motor vehicles -- that is, if we oould find enough open highways to drive on. "you have somewhat less than seven persons per registered vehi- cle. I think this is a good index to the progressiveness of a country. In Great Britain the figure is 186. Russia has 70 persons per vehicle which are largely trucks. "In Japan the figure is 563; in Korea, 2,014; in China, 8,745. In other words, you have 12 times the per capita registration of Russia and 1,500 times that of China. Now that you have a rapidly growing petrol- eum industry, I'm sure that automo- biles will become still more impor- tant to your development in Cana- da," he said. Comparing the American savings that could be accomplished with use of high compression engines-- 30 per cent over today's total fuel consumption -- Mr. McCuen de- clared Canadian automobile drivers could save 450,000,000 (million) im- perial gallons of ghsoline pér year. This, he added, would be enough to fill 70,000 railway tank cars. "To put it another way, Mr. Mo- Cuen remarked, "it means the auto- mobile industry will be drilling an invisible oil well for every three wells which the petroleum industry drills." Coal Office Entered, Nothing Taken The office of the Dixon Coal Company was broken into some- time between five o'clock yester- day afternoon and six o'clock this morning but nothing was taken. One of the shippers informed Po- ice Constable E. Barker who in- vestigated. Constable Barker found that en- trance was gained through a win- dow on the south side of the build- ing. The vault in the office had apparently been disturbed but no forcible entry was attempted. Two Firemen (Continued from Page 1) they could work their way into the flames. The spots where the three holes were made were former base- ment windows. The fire was first noticed by Rob- ert Williams, assistant to the vice- president of the company, who had been working late at the office. All the other employees had left the ilding. Chief Elliott said today that had the basement ceiling not been con- structed of cement the whole build- ing might have been destroyed. Fire- men chopped a hole in one of the offices on the main floor but were unable to penetrate through the cement, All Firemen Called All available firemen in the city were called into action to fight the blaze. Alex Boyd, Oshawa Ambulance Service proprietor, said motorists refused to clear a path for his am- bulance while taking Pollock to hos- pital despite the fact that the red light on the ambulance was on and the siren going. Several pedestrians at the scene of the fire were critical that the ambulance had not arrived before it did. Boyd said today that he was not notified until eight o'clock and that he was at the fire within three minutes. It has been reported that a To- ronto Ngwspaper photographer was interfered with while attempting to take pictures at the fire. The mat- ter was reported to Police Chief Owen D. Friend. Three Trapped (Oontinued from Page 1) another four-storey building which adjoined it. v Farly estimates placed damage to the George Street business block at nearly $300,000. Cause Unknown Cause of the blaze was unknown. Firemen said the fire apparently started near an elevator shaft at the rear of the building, owned by Harry Zacks, then spread to the fourth floor of the Braund Build- ing on the southwest corner of George and Hunter Streets. Three fire pumpers answered the alarm and firemen by 8 am. had 14 lines of hose fighting the blaze. It was the seventh fire in Peter- borough and district since last Sat- urday. Cause of today's fire is unknown and no estimate of damage is yet available, though some merchants placed their individual losses as high as $70,000. Several Stores Involved The fire started some time be- fore 5:30 am. in the building housing Tip Top Tailors, Pulvers' Ladies Wear, Ed Reilly's Men's Wear and the Agnew Surpass store at the southwest corner of Hunter and George streets. One hour after the building be- gan to burn, flames leaped the firewall into adjoining four-storey building. . The back of the first building to start' burning was only a shell by 7:30 AM. and yellow smoke Was swirling up from the basement and ground floor. At 8 AM. the fire in the other building was confined to the fourth floor. . The blaze was first noticed by Constable Douglas Farthing who said he was patrolling an alleyway when the rear window of the Agnew- Surpass store blew out. "The flames shot right up the wall," he said. After turning in the alarm, the officer went 'to the front of the 'building and woke up the two couples, in the apartments at the front of the building. "One old lady thought I was kid- ding," said the constable, "And she went right back to sleep. I just about knocked the door off waking her the second time." Fire Guts Pier At Philadelphla Philadelphia, May 19° (AP)--Fire gutted a Delaware riverfront pier Friday, wrecked a Scottish freight- er docked beside it, and caused damage that may reach $1,000,000. Three men were missing and feared drowned. They jumped inte the debris-littered Delaware with 50 others to escape the windswept flames that engulfed the ship and pier within minutes.
