AIRCRAFT EXPERTS
 WORK ON NEW MOTOR
GENERAL PERSHlNG URGES AMERICAN DESIGNERS AN TlCtPATE A CRAFT ARMED
 WITH SIX GUNS.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-Experts un- der the aircraft, are at work, it was learned today, upon an engine that is expected to surpass the Liberty mo tor in power, while retaining all the qualities for quantity production. While the original Liberty motor in- cludes no mechanical innovations or experiments. th edesigners have been given full latitude in tho new ma chine and it probably will mark dis tinct progress in tho art of aero plane designing. For that reason de tails of construction are confidential
 American experts have worked on the theory that a good big aeroplanc is better than a good little aeroplane. They believe super dreanuaghts of the air will be the masters of the air and consequently the next engines are being developed to run planes of increased sizes and fighting power
 Months ago General Pershing urged that American designers anticipate craft armed with six machine guns each, three heavy and three light. Al that time no serious attempt was be- Ing made in Europe to get more than four guns aboard any plane. The navy department also Is at work upor designs for advanced types of sea
 )lanes. For .he present the capacity of a new plant where nearly one thou sand men are employed is needed tC turn ont the accepted type of flyinl boat but some of it's facilities soor will be diverted to development oi enlarged and improved flying boats.
