BUILDING HUGE L. S, DIRIGIBLE ' Ship t0 Repflce TR Started at ' Philadelphia Philadelphia, July 21.-—A monster dirigible, the ZR-1, {s being built in the aircraft factory of the Philadel- | phia Navy Yard, It is to be fully as | blg as that {ll-fated leviathan of the air, the ZR.2, which collapsed and fell flaming into the Hull river in England Jast summer bringing a ter- rible death to more than a score of its crew As fast as the parts are completed here they are sent to the hangar at Lakehurst, N, J., which will be the home port of the giant airship. It {s expected that by next April the ZR-1 will be ready for its first flight. This dirigible will be the first of the Zeppelin type to have been built in this country. Commander Wester- velt and his assoclates in the naval afreraft factory are being guided in the construction of the ZR-1 by the tragedies of similar craft. A principal difference between the Philadelphia-bullt dirigible and that which collapsed over Hull {s the strengthening of every second dura- luminum ring instead of every third ring as in the ZR.2. This strengthen- ing is accomplished by tying each sec- tion of the 25-sided rings (polygons), which will make up the framework, with the strongest possible strands of copper wire. Beventy miles of such copper wire will be used, and the re- sult, it s said, will give the frame- work a resistance greater even than if constructed of steel. Duraluminum is an alloy of aluminum and copper and {8 used because of its qualities of lightness and strength. The work of assembling the ZR-1 is already underway at Lakehurst under command of Commander Norfleet. Three of the ribs are erected in the hangar and the keel will be completed within a few wéeks. The envelope will be 700 feet long| and 85 feet in meximum diameter. It/ will be cigar-shaped. The cloth will be of staple back-spun cotton one inch in thiclness. A specially devised var- nish will make it sun and water-proof. Nineteen balloonets which will fur- nish the lifting power are being built {n Akron, O. These will have a total gas capacity of 2,700,000 cubic feet. It is not considered likely that hel- fum (non-inflammable gas) can be used because of the immense quantity that would be necessary. Originally the ntion was to equip the ZR-1 with seven Liberty engines capable of developing a total ©of 2,100 horsepower, but navy experts are experimenting with a new type of motor, the specifications of which are not being made public, but which like- ly will be the type used. ‘When the ZR-1 is completed, ex- perts say it will have power to cruise one-third of the distance around the world without having to descend. It will have a lifting power of 85 tons. The average speed, it is estimated, | will be 60 miles an hour, {ts maxi- NEW BOOKS for YOUR VACATION TRIP Glimpses ¢ Moon E. Wharton House of n G.
