ECKEBER’S GREAT j
NEW i GIANT TO i
DIRIGIBLE TO HAVE SMOKER I
AND OTHER COMFORTS j
FOR PASSENGERS
FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Germany,
June 4. (/P)—Not this year, as
originally scheduled, but by the
end of 1932 Dr. Hugo Eckener ex
pects to take to the air with a
new dirigible which is accident
proof, so far as human ingenuity
can make it.
Helium gas and crude oil motors
will supply the one factor of safe
ty hitherto lacking.
“The disaster to the English
R-101 showed that the only danger
that remains for a lighter-than
air craft is that of explosion in
the event of running up against
a mountain or hitting the ground
hard,” Dr. Eckener said. -
“We no longer fear storms or
heat or cold. Our Graf Zeppelin
has been through the toughest
weather imaginable. The only
possible element of danger is the
inflammability of hydrogen gas
in the balloons, and of ‘blau gas’
and benzine for the motors.
“The dirigible which we are de
signing will be filled with helium
gas and will be driven by motors
using crude oil as fuel.
“The decision to change to these
two non-inflammable materials has
set us back a whole year. But
there was no other thing to do.
“It will be good news for in
veterate smokers, that our new
ship will have a large smoking
room. It will be easier, too, to in
crease other comforts for passen
gers.
“It requires about 20 per cent
more helium gas to carry the same
load as hydrogen gas. Hence,
while our new dirigible was origin
ally designed to carry 165,000 cubic
meters of hydrogen, we must now
enlarge it to carry 200,000 cubic
meters of helium.
Larger Than Akron
“The dirigible under construc
tion in Akron, Ohio, is to be of
approximately the same size as
that which we originally designed
for Friedrichshafen. Now that we
shall increase the size of ours to
allow for the helium, the German
craft will be somewhat larger than
the Akron ship, whose cubicle con
tent is nearly double that of the
Graf.
SILVER ANNIVERSARY
The arrival of the 25th wedding
of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Shellhorn
yesterday was the signal for a
silver shower by their host of
friends and a dinner at their resi
dence. Throughout the day they
were the recipients of congratula
tions.
Have you beard he new “OKEH”
records at Sylvia’s. They are won
derful.
