AMERICAN COMPANY’S CLAIM
NEW YORK. Aug. 25
The Buffalo Machinery Company has announced the development of an atomic rectifier capable of driving a locomotive from coast to coast for a dollar.
The rectifier produces combustible gas from commercial type Atomic C uranium.
Although the present costs are high, it is estimated that a pound of Atomic C will be produced for 50 cents to a dollar. Only one pound is needed to operate a locomotive for four days.
