NAVY WANTS 10 CONTINUE PROGRAM Aeronautic Plans and Work on ZR-1 Hangs in Balance Washington, Auz. 25.—Despite the loss of the ZR-2 before actually becom- ing navai property officers of the naval bureau of aeronautics confidently hope the navy will be permitted to continue its rigid airship program. They point out that America already has a gigantic hangar at Lakehurst, N. J., completed at a cost of $2,000,000 and capable of housing two ships of the size of the Z¥ as well as other complete facili- ties. Appropriations Stopped. Althouzh appropriations were stop- ped before the ZR-1 was completed most of the necessary duralumin struc- tural material is already manufactured and awaiting assembly, much of the en- velope has been fabricated and nearly all the material for her completed, pur- chased at a cost of about $1,000,000. I'or months the naval gas extracting plant at Fort Worth, Texas, has been storing helium gas and sufficient gas of sured to fill the ZR-1 Plans Plans for the ZR-1, call for an air- ship of slightly smaller size than the ZR-2, a length of 670 feet, diameter about 80 feet and gas capacity of ap- proximately X0,000 cubic feet. He: total cost is estimated at $2,500,000. While designers of the ZR-2 departed somewhat from the structural lines of the Zeppelins the naval designers laid their pluns for a ship incorporating the lutest developments of the original rigid builders, the Germans, of whose plans wore than 100 were filed here for rati- tication. Still Without Details. Still without details as to the causc of the ZR-2 disaster today naval aero- nauts were loathe to accept the hydro- n explosion theory advanced in carly itehes from England. They werc rather inclined to believe that somc structurzl weakness developed or that the irders and frames which were strained in the July 17 flight failed and ed gasoline or hydrogen leaks. If zasoline or hydrogen came into contact with the exhausts of any of the six sincs swung beneath the great en- : an explosion coula readily have aused, it was explained. The reports that the ship fell in two piec however, tends to cause beliet in naval circles that structural failures were the prime cause of the disaster, brousht about perhaps by too sudder r2in on some weak part. Crew Well Equipped. Every member of the crew and pas: sengers of a rigid, it was said at the of- fice of the chief of the naval bureau of acronautics is equipped with regulation afety parachutes and life preservers. he combined equipment is fitted into @ compact bundle not larger than a satehel and provided with a hook and handle. If danger threatens, a membe: of the crew has but to attach the hook to his life pelt and leap over the sidc to safety. Officers infer from late re ports of the disaster that many of the crew must have been killed outright by the force of the explosion, or stunned before they could jump clear of the falling wreck. Six naval craft which were standing by awaiting orders to proceed to their cex stations along the projected course of the ZR-2 were réleased for other duty after the reccipt of the news of the wreck. While no lane of ships was planned, such as was posted to aid the NC boats on their trans-Atlantic flight two years ago the battleships Utah, Ohio, Wyoming and Arkansas, and the oiler Brazos together with a destroyer were to take positions across the north Atlantic to wireless the weather condi- tions to the.ZR-2 before she started and while she was enroute to this coun- try in order to permit her to pick the best route. 1t is not thought that the navy will endeavor to purchase from England any of her remaining rigid airships, but that construction in America will be undertaken if others are authorized. CHILDREN PERISH. Vienna. Aug. 25.—Curious freaks of ropulation are shown by the details of the latest Austrian census. For in- stance. there are 300,000 fewer chil- dren under 10 years of age in thc country than in 1910, while the num her of men between 40 and 60 has in creased by 120,000. It is explained » the fact that adult men survivea the privations of the last three o ears_while children perished. S0 WEAK S0 NERVOUS Huw Miserable This Woman Was Until She Took Lydia E.
