Tom Johnson Invents Motor tor Travel at Lightning Speed.
Cleveland Special: Mayor Tom Johnson hopes to give the world a system of rapid transit that will revolutionize all present means of travel to make possible a flight by rail from Cleveland to San Francisco in seven hours. Mayor Johnson has invented a motor and is still working on his plans.
The car is built to run on an overhead track. At the highest rate of speed of which the motor is capable the wheels would fly to pieces. Hence shoes take their place. Powerful magnets take up the weight of the car and minimize the friction of the shoes on the rails.
From Cleveland to Chicago, a distance of 342, the trip that now takes eight hours and more would be made in fiftythree minutes. Stops at stations would have to be automatic.
