DETROIT, Mich, Jan. 30
Humble seaweed, the kind amid
which sea bass sport, oysters medi-
tate and lobster pots lie in wait for
their prey, is playing its role il
Americas air defense effort and al
the same time is keeping the Pack
ard Motor Co. on good terms lit Is
hopeO with its neighbors.
Mixed with a plastic binder, the
seaweed-the long, grassy kinds
pressed into blocks and sprayed
with aluminium paint. These blocks
are used to soundproof the test cells
in which every marine engine now
being built by Packard for the Navy
is put through its 20 hours of test
runs. The same soundproofing will
be used in the 40 test cells Packard
is building as a part of its 62,000,-
900 aircraft engine factory, in which
1t will build Rolls Royce engines for
the United States and England.
The soundproofing in each Of
these cells, incidentally, is costing
s10,000-and that's lot of seaweed.
The seaWeed story goes back to the
World War During that war, Pack
ard built Liberty engines. 1t did not
use soundproof1ng around the en-
gine test stands and the Liberties
hoWled their songs to all those
around-for a considerable distance.
Ear plugs did the neighbors some
good, but not much.
Some smart lawyer began cir
culating around the neighborhood,"
| Packard officials recall, "and the
matter got into the courts. 1t wound
up with our purchasing of so ad-
joining properties"
Since Packard doesn't want to buy
! out any more homeowners. just
because Of the Nazis, the submarine
hay fields are being moved. Sea-
weed is used because it is full Of
minute air cells to insure buoyancy.
These cells are perfectly natural
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS and more
effective than glass wool, rock fiber
and other insulating materials which
have been tried.
Seaweed soundproofng is but one
of many surprises for the layman in
this aircraft engine business.
The average automobile owner Is
apt to think of a carburetor-if he
thinks of it at alias an odd-looking
little gadget which acts like an
atomizer for gasoline and which
doesn't cost much to fix if it gets out
of order, largely because he can buy
a new one for few dollars II the
old one breaks down completely.
