<ul><li><b>Scope and content:</b>  Original Caption: Defying the high cost of gasoline in war time.  Although gas has been used as a motive power for autos in England, it remained for an enterprising taxi owner in New York to introduce it in this country, and thereby deliver a punch to the high cost of "gas."

The gas, which is of the manufactured kind, is compressed under great pressure into the container, and it is fed to the motor thru a regulating valve.</li></ul>
