Public attention focuses on a Minneapolis invention for cement and sand pipes capable of 75,000 pounds weight. The machine uses a 300 pound hammer to pack the material and produce 100 lengths daily, far more efficient than the current method yielding only fifteen. The report contrasts hand pounding with the machine's one motion shaping. The piece also surveys palmistry lines and various medical testimonials.
