naval seaplanes. which have under
taken the first fight acrcss the Allan
tlc Ocean. were built especially for
bombing German submarines, and in
initiating their design Rear Admiral
David W. Taylor, chief of the bureau
Of construction and repair had in mind
the construction of ships capable of
fving across the ocean, so as to avoid
difficulties CT delivery during the war.
This was disclosed to-day by the
Navy Department, which made public
the following memorandum sent by
Admiral Taylor on August 25, 1917, to
Naval Constructor W. c. Westervelt,
his assistant for aeronautics.
"The United States motor gives good
, promise OF being a success, and if we
can push ahead on the airplane end it
seems to me the submarine menace
could be abated. even if not destroyed,
from the air.
The ideal solution would be big fly
ing boats or the equivalent that would
be able to keep the sea (rot air. in any
weather and also able to fly across the
Atlantic to avoid difficulties of de-
livery, etc
Admiral Taylor, after discussion Of
the problem with his assistants, di-
rected the preparation Of tentative
plans.
Early in September, Glenn H.
Curtiss, of the Curtiss Aeroplane and
Motor Corporation, and his engineers,
". L. Gilmore and Henry Kleckler,
came to Washington at the navy's in
vtaton to discuss the proposed designs,
and they co6porated with the navy
throughout the designing and building
of the ship. 4 three-foot model of the
/. design made exactly TO scale was test
ed by Dr.. y. I. Zahm in the wind tun-
mel at the Washington Navy Ya~d
Construction work began in Nc'p Der
and commander H. c. Richardanu, a
: naval constructor. was directed to de-
s sign the hull OF the boat. A series Of
models Of huls were made up and
tested By Naval Constructors McEatee
and Richardson in the towing basin at
the Washington Navy Yard and the
best OF the series vas adopted.
s The engine plant design was the
work of the Bureau Of Steam Engi-
reering and it was decided to install
Sthree Liberty motors In December,
1911. contract was made with the
e Curtiss company for building four of
ethe boats, but separate parts of the
craft wele made by number of fac
tories. The NC-1, the first of the
boats, was completed and made a
successful flight on October 4, 1918.
!. The month OF November was spent
: thorough irving out the NC-1 and
many flights were mades After making
various minor changes i was apparent
that the flying part of The craft could
sustain greater load if more power
were available, and it vas decided to
& add fourth engine.

March, 1919, and successfully few

'GAVISHED GIFTS"
TO GET PROMOTION
Naval Commander Tells of
Generosity of Ensign
Raised frcm Yeoman.

NEW YORK. Aug. 20.-The trail OF
Ensign Harry Erlanger, U. S. ~,
charged with having conspired to
have himself promoted from yeoman
to ensign T. continuing today before
a general ourt-msrtial at the Brook
lyn navy yard.
The purchase OF a $500 fur coat
for the wife OF Lieutenant ElIert, who
is awaiting action by the Navy De-
partment on his plea of guilty of
certain violations of rules, was the
specific bribery charge against Err
langer.
With the introduction of a confes-
sion not made public. the prosecution
yesterday rested it's case.
The first witness on the defense
was Commander John Grady, of the
L. S. S. Dolphin, Ensign Erlangers
Immediate superior, and a medal
of honor man, swore he alone was
responsible for changers promotion.
He said Ensign Erlanger worked
hard for the Liberty loans as a mem
Der of Mayor MitcheTs committee of
National Defense. and IL was on the
suggestion Of three members of that
committee that he got EFlanger into
the naval recruiting service as a yeo-
man.
Commander Grady said Erlanger
was lavish with gifts, gave him a
dressing chest and blew" 300 New
zealanders, working for the Liberty
loan, to dinner at a Manhattan res
taurant.r
The witness denied on cross-ex-
animation that Erlanger gave any
thing to his wife.
Former Ensign John J. Rafferty,, of
so North Parkway swore he went -
dinner with Lieutenant ElIert and Err
LANCER just before the promotion. and
Lieutenant Ellert told him Erlanger
had entertained an awful lot" to
get the promotion.
