Will Harness Winds
For Light and Power
German Engineer Has Plan to
Solve Fuel Shortage.

FRANKFURT, GERMANY.-Her-
man Honnef, one of Germany's fore
most electrical engineers, plans to
harness the force of the winds to
solve his country's fuel and power
shortage.
First practical application of Hon
nef's "waterwind power" is planned
for Selenter basin, near Hamburg.
Twenty huge wind generators, cou-
pied with the same number of
pumps, will be used to drive 10 tur-
bines.
Honnef gets his power from "up-
stairs" wind currents, at an altitude
of some 300 feet. He first noticed
the winds in 1923 when he was build
ing a lofty radio mast.
Later he found the wind currents
were not 100 per cent dependable,
but he overcame that weakness by
coupling his wind generators to wa
ter pumps for "windwater power"
Now, with pilot plant experiments
behind him, Honnef says he is ready
to set the darkened cities of Ger
many aglow and restart the ma
chimes of factories made idle by the
coal shortage.
Engineers say the same type of
installation a be used at other I'M
dependable water power stations in
Germany. Honnef tried to interest
power companies and municipal
governments in "waterwind power"
before the war, but no one would
listen.
His idea is a simple one. Wind
power is used to pump water, which
in turn is used to operate the tur-
bines-which produce the electricity.
Electricity produced by water
power is considered cheap in Ger
many at one cent per kilowatt hour,
but Honnef says his wind genera
tors reduce the rate to one-fifth of a
cent. Furthermore, his revolution
airy generators r not affected by
rain, nov or ice.
Honnef's only problem will be in
obtaining steel enough to build prac-
tical-sized plants. The steel short
age is almost as acute as the power
shortage. There's no coal to Gre
age the power to operate steel mills.

Museum of American Circus
