A BOY MANY YEARS AGO, Stumbled accidentALLY ON THE SECRET OF A NEW MOTIVE POWER WHICH HAS BAFFLED SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS IN EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD FOR GENERATIONS.

To-day that boy-now a man-claims that his discovery of a "magic gas" will mean that motor-cars, lorries and aeroplanes will be able to travel at a negligible cost, save for ordinary wear and tear and lubricating oil.

There will, it is declared, be no more need for petrol, ear- hurettuys, magnetos, sparking plugs or radiators. All mechani- cally propelled vehicles will be silent.

The inventor is Mr. John E. Bradley, of Blackburn, who, after nine years of experiments, says his discovery is very nearly perpetual motion. Here is his story.

PROBLEM STUDIED FOR YEARS

"The first step to my great discovery came during my boys hood in a Lancashire works. One day I poured what I thought was water into a metal container. The container buckled and I found that accidentally I had used, acid,

"I asked pestions about this strange iquid that twisted stout metal and I stored up the answers. Later I learned that : The gas of this particular aeid expanded with great strength and

rapidity.

"For years 1 studied the problems, I discovered that if 1 could control the pressure und expansion of this gas, I should probably invent a new motive power.
