“VIEW" INTO
. S. VOICE
WASHINGTON - (NEA— The
State Department will soon have
65 potent packages of propaganda
in action selling the story of
America, in pictures, to more than
100,000,000 people around the
world. |
The packages are jeeps loaded
with very kind of picture projec
tor ever dreamed up, plus equip
ment and a complete public ad
dress system. The idea is to turn
the Voice of America into the
“View of America” and take it to
the people in every far corner on
the blobe.
A Congressional committee
which toured Europe in 1947 to
see how effective the Voice and
other propaganda efforts of the
State Department were, discov
ered that only a handful of the
people were being reached with
the story. Audiences were mostly
limited to those who owned ra
dios and could read. The great
mass of the people, including
many workers and farmers, just
weren’t getting America’s side of
the argument in the cold war.
The picture and movie-laden-‘
jeep is the State Department’s an
swer to this problem. Movies and
still pictures, it has been discov
ered, are excellent mediums for
mass education. And when they
are brought right to backyards,
where it requires only a minimum
effort to see them, they're twice
as effective.
Shert Wave .
In addition to telling the story
of democracy with movies and
slides, the jeep is equipped with
powerful short wave radio for
picking up actual Voice of Amer
ica broadcasts. The public address
system lets any sized audience in
on the programs, giving millions a
chance to hear them who wouldn’t
have been able to otherwise.
Transcribed music and education
al programs can also be provided
for great numbers of peoplie in
this way.
Another use for the unit is to
record the propaganda programs
and speeches of the other coun-=
tries for later study and analysis.
One or two men will travel
with each jeep as it takes its story
to the far reaches, depending
upon how far from the home base
it must go. It is equipped with air
mattresses, camping equipment,
cooking gear, large drinking-wa
ter cans and an 80-gallon gas
tank. This permits operators to
camp out when no other lodging 1s
aveilable.
An operator of one of these
compact unks must be a com
petent camera technician, sound
man, radio engineer, public re
lations expert and master of
ceremonies. .
Films will not be shown simply
f or entertainment. The film li
brary on each jeep will consist
of travelogues, educational films,
shorts showing America’s manu
facturing plants and arms, and
newsreels. Slides for presenting
various types of lectures are also
part of the equipment. The sound,
accompanying all the slides and
movies, will be translated into the
native language.
Public libraries in 94 large Uni
ted States cities house more than
44 million volumes. f

Ram-Jet, Simple Power
Source, Goes Too Fast
NEW YORK — (NEA) — The,
ram-jet probably is the simplest,!
source of power since the old-}
fashioned overshot water wheel, It
is so simple that it deserves its
nickname, the “flying .s'tnvcpipe."t
The ram-jet is just a deformed
cylinder of sheet metal. Air comes
in through a hole in front, mixes
with fuel and burns in the center,
and hot gases rush out of the hcle
in the rear. That’s about all there
is to it. ,
The ram-jet can be—and is —
' made small enough to go on the tip |
of a helicopter rotor blade. It can |
be—and is—made small enough to |
go on the ends of a fighter plane’s
wings, for use in combination with
turbo-jet power.
Or the ram-jet can be quite big.
Its power depends on the size of
the air opening in front. Calcula
tions show that a ram-jet with
air inlet 20 inches across, could bel
designed to product the equivalent
' of 40,000 horsepower at 1500 miles
an hour.
The reciprocating engine be
comes impractical at around 4000
housepower, says Robert D.
Grange, project engineer in Wright |
Aeronautical Corporation’s ga&:l
turbine division. because it gets so
complicated with added cy]inders.|
long shafts, vibration, balance andl
other problems—not to mention
weight.
The reciprocating engine weighs
about one pound for every horse
power it can deliver. The gas tur
bine weighs from 10 to 13 ounces
for every horsepower. The turbo
jet weighs from six to eight ounces
for the equivalent of each horse
power. The ram-jet weighs per
l haps 3.5 ounces for the same pow- !
cr ability. |
The ram-jet has no moving
parts to wear out or break down.
And there are no turbine blades
around the combustion chamber
to be ruined by very high tem
peratures, so the ram-jet can stand
up to 4000 degrees Fahrenheit as |
compared with 1500 in turbo-prop
and turbo-jet combustion cham
bers now. Engineers believe that
when new materials become avail
able, combustion chamber temp
eratures above 2000 degrees could
be utilized to advantage for in-|
creased horsepower 2nd reduced

fuel consumption.
| "1t would secm, then, that the‘
| ram-jet should be the aviation
f“enginc" of the future., For very
| high speeds it well may become
| that. But it has two major dis
advantages. ,
Very Expensive -
It is very expensive to operate
as far as fuel consumption is con
cerned. For a given amount of
thrust, for which the reciprocat
ing engine would take three
i quarts of fuel, the turbo-prop en
{ gine would use about one gallon;
| the turbo-jet about six quarts; the
| ram-jet about five gallons; the
rocket “engine” about 30 gallons
of fuel and oxidizer combined.
All except the ram-jet can be
operated at low speeds, if effi
ciency is ignored. But the ram
jet will not work at all until some
other power plant has built air
speed up to at least 400 miles an
hour. That is because the ram
jet has no compressor, and air for
burning has to be scooped up and
compressed by the jet’s forward
motion in flight. So the ram-jet
cannot be used by itself; there
must be another power plant to
get it up to operating speed.
“It would be inefficient to burn
six quarts of fuel in a turbo-jet
to do what three or four quarts
will do in an engine or turbine,”
says Grange. “So we use the en
gine or turbine for speeds of which
they are capable, up to maybe 500
‘miles an hour.
“It would be wasteful to burn
20 quarts in a ram-jet to get the
power that six quarts develop in
a turbo-jet. So we use the turbo
jet up to maybe 1500 miles an
| hour.
| “It would be extravagant to use
30 gallons in a rocket ‘engine’ to
lproduce the power that the turbo
jet gives with six quarts or the
ram-jet with five gallons. So we
do not consider the rocket until
we need speeds of more than per
haps 2500 miles an hour, or until
' we want to operate where there is
no oxygen for the jet burner.
“We have to pay for speed.
When we want to go faster than
sound, the cost comes high. New
materials permitting higher op
erating temperatures should cut]
down the differentials somewhat,

AFTERNOON TEA
BOOSTS MORALE
BY ALICIA HART
NEA Staff Writer
The pleasant custom of serving
afternoon tea may seem to be an
impractical idea for a busy house
wife to consider. But a friend of
mine claims that a cup of tea
gracefully served and leisurely
sipped in the company of a friend
or two is well worth the time
taken away from tasks. i
She says that she has found the
cup of tea to be a pleasant stimu
lus and a means or restoring flag
ging energy. As important, she
claims, is the boost to your morale
that a few social moments with a
cup of iea can give after a day ot
driving yourseif from chore to
chore.
To get the most from these mo
ments of respite, don’t gulp down
the pick-up beverage in the kitch
en, warns our tea-drinker. Instead
she suggests serving iea from your
prettiest china in the living room
or on t hteerrace a practice that
is guaranteed to make you feel a 3
pampered as a duchess, she says.
To keep teatime hospitality
from becoming more work than
pleasure, our mentor’s final tip is
to limit refreshments to the sim
plest cookies or crackers.
