Show JAP KICKED WITH OWN ALNICO We are shooting back at the Japs every day of the week with a major development that was created by a Jap, and in radio we are using this same development develop-ment to plaster him and to keep him from plastering us with the iron and steel he bought from us in prewar days, it was revealed by the president of Zenith Radio Corporation. - The materiai: ia'"a super-mag-netic alloy that was developed by Professor Tokushici Mishima of Tokyo Imperial University, introduced in-troduced into this country short-y short-y before the war under the name alnico and now used by every radionic manufacturer. It is a com ponent of radio and other potent radionic weapons. Without it, McDonald stated, some of our radionic devises would be impossible, impos-sible, while others would be heav-ier, heav-ier, more costly, and less efficient. effi-cient. Alnico's great value, he said, comes from its light weight, great magnetic strength, and permanence. perman-ence. It will lift sixty times its light weight of iron or steel. A piece of it the size of the eraser f a lead pencil makes a stronger magnet than the large horseshoe magnets we played with as kids. It will retain its magnetic strength undef mechanical shock, vibration, and temperature changes chan-ges of several hundred degrees that would soon reduce old type magnets to hunks of inert metal. "I believe we got more from the Jap in his discovery of this super efficient magnet than the Japgot from us with all the iron, steel and gasoline we are charged charg-ed with having sold him in per-war per-war days." h McDonlad said he could not give McDonald said he could not give further information about military application of alnico. |
