Giant Windmill Towers,
Berlin Engineers Plan

Berlin.-Hermann Honnef, build
er of the giant towers of Germany's
largest broadcasting station, Koe-
nigswusterhausen, has developed an
idea for a series of mammoth wind
mills, which he claims, if followed
out, would supply enough electric
power for all of Germany at a cost
of one pfennig per kilowatt hour.
Honnef got his idea during con-
struction of the 256-meter radio
tower. According to his design, a
tower 27O meters high would be
built, like a radio tower. Cross
bars at the top would support hori-
zontally three giant wind wheels,
each with a diameter of 160 meters.
He declares that 60 such towers,
strategically placed throughout
Germany, could, in connection with
the existing water power plants,
supply the entire country.
