LIBERTY MOTORS
TO AID SEAPLANE
IN WAR ON SUBS

Plans for combating the under

the air as well as from the decks of
destroyers are well under way. I
A fighting seaplane. equipped with
two Liberty motors, has been re-
ceiving tryouts, and has proved sat-
isfactory In the extreme, according
to avfators and officials here. Now
that the model has been approved. it
is expected that they will be pro-
duced in quantity in the factories in
this country.
The new seaplane Is described as
closely resembling the British fly
ing boats now in use except for the
fact that the American planes will
have far greater horsepower and in
consequence, higher speed. The
equipment of two motors is expected
to give to each plane q tractive force
OF 700 horsepower.
The giving OF higher power to
hydro-aeropianes viii mark q great
Increase in the efficiency in the
hunting of submarines. The unwieldy
pontoons that weight down the over
water type OF aircraft have IN the
past been q drawback In rapid and
easy maneuvering. Higher power, II
is expected, will give to the sea-
plane more OF the ladaptability that
Is now possessed by the fighting
plane used by the land forces.
