Washington, Jan. 1S.-Experts under the aircraft production board are all ready at work, it was learned today, upon an engine that is expected to sur pass the Liberty motor in power, while retaining all the qualities for quantity production. While the original Liberty motor in" eluded no mechanical innovations or experiments, the designers have been given full latitude. in the new ma achilie and it probably will mark distinct progress in the art of airplane engine designing.4 For that reason details of construction are highly confidential. | American experts have worked on the theory that a good big afrplane is better than a good little, airplane. They | believe. super dreadnaughts of the air I will be the masters of the air and con- sequently the new engines are being developed to run. planes of increased i size and fighting power.
 The navy department also is at work
 on designs for advanced types of sea
 planes. For the present the capacity
 of the new plant at the Philadelphia
 yard, where nearly 1000 men are em
 ployed, is needed to turn out the ac- cepted type of flying boat, but some ol l! it's facilities soon will be diverted te
