navy AIRCRAFT WORK
!: DECLARED SUCCESSFUL
Has Conformed to Regular Naval
Practice, Says Chief Constructor
; in Annual Report.

Success of the Navy in solving It's
wartime aircraft problems is at
tributed to the policy consistently
followed Of making this work con-
form to regular naval practice. Rear
Admiral David w. Taylor, chief con-
structor, In his annual report. says
eircraft production has been handled
like other departmental technical
questions and, despite the great ex-
pansion OF forces necessary, "direc-
tion and control of aircraft questions,
have been cared for by officers ia
xniliar with tn. methods of the Navy
department"
Types Prove Successful.
Civilians" Admiral Taylor con-
tinues. have thus been able to carry
on their naval work under the. most
favorable conditions. This policy has
demonstrated its soundness. The
types Of aircraft developed for pro-
changes have been minimum and
have been adopted only with a view
to improvement.
AS the report was prepared prior
not 20 into detail on any part Of
the building operations OF the Navy.
AS to aircraft however. 1t shows that
both types OF seaplanes used by the
Navy are fundamentally American"
improved in design on British expert
ence. In October production of the
two main types was In excess Of re-
ouirements.
Development Of balloons for naval
purposes also comes under Admiral
TayIor's bureau. His report shows
that much experimental work was
done with types Of parachutes. an
officer Of the Construction Corps hav-
ing dropped from an airship in night
and from q kite balloon to test the
design adopted. The same oficer also
successfully tried out a new type of
parachute carrying the basket Of
the kite balloon and its occupants"
