DESIGN FOR GIANT
A|RSH|P COMPLETED
Engineer Describes Plans for
Craft More Than Double
Size of Shenandoah.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. January S.-Comple-
ton of the designs for the largest
metal-clad airship in the world, two
and one-half times the size of the
Shenandoah. to he built by the Air
craft Development Corporation at the
Ford Airport. Dearborn, Mich, was
announced last night by Carl +.
F'ritsche. general manager of the
corporation.
Speaking at a meeting of the Amer
lean Society Of Mechanical Engineers,
Mr. Fritsche said that the ship will
be equipped luXuriouSly for CONNER
ciaI use, but in the event of war ca n
be equipped for military purposes in
As hours. Another smaller ship, one
tenth the size of the Shenandoah. will
also he built, he said
The larger airship will have a gas
capacity of 5,0O0,o0O cubic feet and
the smaller capacity of 10000 cubic
feet. Both ships will be fireproof
lightning proof and weather proof Mr..
FritSche said none of which require
ments are fulfilled by fabric lighter
than-air craft The smaller will be
used for demonstration and expert
mental purposes.
Discussing the future of lighter
than-air craft, Mr.. Fritsche said:
The tranScontinental metai-clad
commercial airship of the future will
show an operating cost of fuel and
power plane charges per passenger
mile not greatly in excess of the pres
eht cost per passenger mile of touring
in first-class limousine automobile
He expressed doubt that airships
ever will be used extensively for trans
atlantic travel, since too much of the
available space would have to be used
for fuel.
