LONDON, Oct. 7.-E. w. Peter, chair

financial policy. saying the attempt to
improve the value of British money had
been successful, but that the result had
come concurrently with period of IN

1--WE increased the cost to a pro-
hibitive extent by raising the value of
money" he added. This is why buyers
in every country are unable to purchase

largely by the desire to keep pace with
America. which followed the same course
with even more disastrous results

for reviving trade and solving the un-

Special Cable to THE New York HERALD.
Copyright, 1921, by THE NEW YoRK HERALD
New York Herald Bureau.
London, Oct. Z.
Lack OF proper cooperation and su-
pervision when designs of the dirigible
zR-2 were first drawn, and the later
failure to submit the changes in de-
sign to closer scrutiny, are blamed for
the disaster of the big airship in the
report of the Air Ministrys Board Of
Inquiry, which was issued tonight.
1t was simultaneously announced
that the Admiralty was beginning an
inquiry on its own account to de-
termine just what happened when the
airship's designs were first drawn un-
der the stress Of war, and the course
of events until they were turned over
to the Air Ministry. October 1, 1919.
Commander Dyer L. S. N, who rep
resented the United States Government
during the building Of the airship. sat
with the inquiry board as "in attend
ance." but did not sign the report. The
report reveals very little not already
there was upon the ''pioneers'--most' Of
whom perished in the disaster--responsi-
BILE for trying to turn out an airship to
beat the Zeppelins under England's con-
structional facilities.
In describing the accident the report
says that under the tests the airship
was made to execute sharp turns at for
ty-fve to fifty knots, which brought
the breakdown between the ninth and
tenth frames. 1t says that the fire
started from sparks caused by broken
electric leads" coming in contact with
broken petrol leads" the fire spread
ing throughout the skeel. setting off the
oxygen.
The electric installations were all in
the forward part Of the ship. No fire
broke out in the after part Of the ship
in which four of the five survivors came
down safely. Then follow these signif-
cant paragraphs:
THAT the requirements as to the
maximum height and speed, together
with the limits of length imposed by the
only available construction sheds. neces-
STATED the utmost economy at Hull in
the matter Of weights and materials.
Many new features were introduced in
the design. and it appears evident that
