After that the tanks performed a miracle of storage. The liquid they held, when vaporized would become 240,000,000 cubic feet of inflammable gas. One afternoon last week, a white, cloudlike stream squirted from one of them. A thick fog drifted up. Then the whole...

Because he has published little on his findings and has experimented mostly in the privacy of a New Mexican desert, fellow rocketeers consider him a "mystery man." When war began...
