Excerpt from Carbureting and Combustion in Alcohol Engines Germany and France, but the most extensive study of the subject which has yet been printed is the work, recently published in France, a translation of which is here presented. The original researches of which this book is largely an account were made under a commission from the French minister of agriculture. The book deals but slightly, and then only in a general way, with what might be called the structural details of the alcohol engine. As a matter of fact the only important essential difference between an alcohol engine and an internal combustion engine for using any other fuel, lies in the apparatus for properly preparing and proportioning the explosive mixture composed of the vaporized fuel and air. This work takes up and treats exhaustively the physical and chemical principles upon which the design of all satis factory alcohol engines must depend. Most of the data herein given had never been investigated before M. Sorel began his researches. A thorough comprehension of the results of these researches will serve to prevent many useless and expensive experiments in inventing alcohol engines; and, in fact, it does not seem too much to say, that an adequate understanding of these results will prove indis pensable to the design of a satisfactory alcohol engine.

Excerpt from Carbureting and Combustion in Alcohol Engines The recent action of the United States Congress, by which the use of alcohol for industrial purposes is permitted without the payment of the internal revenue tax levied upon the alcohol in spirituous liquors, has developed a wide-spread interest in the possible uses to which alcohol may now be put. The internal revenue tax of two dollars and twenty cents per gallon on 100 percent alcohol - a tax which has been maintained at this figure for many years - has prevented the extensive use of alcohol in the various arts and industries for which its properties naturally fit it. As a fuel any extensive use was prohibited by the high cost, due to the internal revenue tax. While the cost of manufacture of a gallon of strong alcohol has probably not much exceeded thirty cents, until the recent congressional action the market price has been about two dollars and fifty cents. Under the new law alcohol, which has been properly denatured by the addition of a definite proportion of poisonous and repulsive ingredients to render it unfit for drinking, is exempt from the payment of any internal revenue tax and hence may be sold at the cost of manufacture.
