Research work to be extended

New activities to be undertaken in its research work by the Society of Automotive Engineers include assistance in the investigation of causes and prevention of highway accidents by the Highway Research Board, to which C. B. Veal, manager of the research department of the society, was appointed at the annual meeting to represent the society; investigations into improved automotive production methods and motor vehicle operation and maintenance; dissemination of popular information on the results of the cooperative research on fuels and their effect on engine performance, and perhaps studies of the psychological factors affecting the riding comfort of passengers in motor vehicles.
