...streets of picturesque Stuttgart were jampacked last week with 60,000 foreign-resident Germans, many from the U. S., gathered for the fifth Congress of Germans Abroad.

S. in Edison's laboratories. In early days the Bosch magneto was used on stationary internal combustion engines, was not adapted to an automobile until 1896. And it was not until Bosch began to make a high-tension magneto with high-tension spark plugs- a simplified ignition system-that Bosch became an international name. By 1912 he had made 1,000,000 magnetos...
