The brake used was the same as shownin this paper last month. There are nowabout 100 of these brakes in service ; butfrom the showing here made, it would ap-pear a good long step toward increasedefiiciency if more of them were put intoservice. This kind of data is the useful kind, thekind that it is safe to figure from, as itwas obtained by actual stop tests on a roadinstead of being figured out on a drawingboard. ^ i i He Was Used To It.
