LIBERTY MOTOR"
PROVES SUCCESS
IN FIRST TRYOUT

Washington, March 14.-Ameri-
cas- first fighting seaplane equi pped
with Liberty motors has been tried
out and accepted, it was learned to-
day, and several craft are being
delivered for the use of the naval
air service. They are the advanced
guard of a big fleet which will be
added to the forces engaged in sub
marine hunting in the war zone.
A second type of fighting plane
for the American army, known as
the Bristol model, also has reached
the production stage and a consid-
cradle number will become avail
able this month
Construction details OF these
planes have not been published. 1t
is known, however, that the sea-
planes are substantially similar to
the British flying boats and are
equipped with two Liberty motors,
which provide approximately 700
horse power. This is understood
to be much in excess of the power
used in similar British craft
In this connection it was learned
that engineers of the aircraft board
nave bNtItOiut lHe iaSt minor ue-
feet of the liberty motors, having
TO do with the fabrication system
Several motors taken haphaZard
from the quantity production sup
ply have been operated continu-
ousIy for many hours without any
trouble developing
Officials in close touch with prog
ress being made on production of
fighting planes in this country are
satisfied that the output will tax
shipping facilities before July, when
delivery in quantities in France has
been scheduled
The success Of the Liberty motor
is known TO have attracted the at
tentiOn of both French and British
air service officials and both gov
ernments have had experts in this
country studying its construction
and methods of quantity production
