Giant Dirigible Still in Air
London, Aug. 24.?The giant dirigible,
ZR-2, is still in the air aft^r 34
hours aerial trip, preparatory to
crossing the Atlantic. The wireless reports
say they are safe off Howden.
New York, Aug. 23.?Perils of the
sea and of the air will be faced- by
the officers and crew of the ZR-2,
which is about to cross the Atlantic
from England to America, Jufft as
they were faced by the dauntless men
of the R-34, but by reason of the increased
size of the more modern airship,
its greater speed and more
comfortable arrangements, many of
the hardships of the pioneer flyers, it
is hoped, will be avoided.
The British R-34, the first dirigible
to cross the Atlantic, started from
East Fortune, Scotland, on July 1,
1919, and landed at Roosevelt Field,
Mineola, L. I., on the .morning of
July 6, covering the 3.290 miles in
108 hours and 12 minutes. She left
New York on the return trip to Scotland
on July 9 and reached her home
port a few days later. On January
29, 1921, the historic craft which had
cost more than $1,000,000 to build,
was cut almost in two by a violent
wind and left a wreck outside her
aerodome near Edinburgh.
While every precaution is being
taken to safeguard the ZR-2, it is recalled
that despite elaborate arrangements
two years ago, the men of the
pascd tnrougn narrowing nours
when the leviathan of the clouds ran
into a shallow atmospheric depression
off the coast of Newfoundland. They
were then within a few hundred miles
of their goal. J
The weather was terrible," said Major
G. II. Cooke, the navigating oticer
of the R-34. "It seemed as though
the atmosphere was haunted by 5,000
devils. We were shaken to the core.
That night we hit everything?heavy
rain, thick fog and low visibility. The
ship seemed as though she was going
to break into bits, rising and falling
like a cork on a heavy sea. At times
she seemed to stand up 30 degrees into
the air.
"All had been fine sailing up to that
time. The most unusual thing about
the entire trip was the extreme violence
of the 'bumps* in regions where
they were totally unexpected. I considered
it almost a miracle that we
completed the trip successfully after
what we went thrpugh. The weather
situation on the Atlantic must be investigated
thoroughly before air travel
between England and America can
be made safe and practicable. With
the limited information we have now,
transatlantic travel is highly dangerous."
The ZR-2, however, will be protected
all the way across by six
weather vessels each carrying a special
staff of forecasters who will
radio to the dirigible all the atmospheric
and barometric data necessary
to assure her of the eastiest possible
sailing route.
Certain defects of the R-34 also
haVe been avoided in the new' craft
which is 41 feet longer than the earlier
ship and seven feet greater in
diameter. It also has o gas capacity
of 2,700,000 cubic feet as againstHhe
R-34's 2,000,000, a total horse-power
of 2,100 as compared with the R-34's
2,000,000, a total horse-power of 2,100
as compared with the R-34's 1,250
and a cruising "endurance" of 6,000
milo>: nt firt miloe nn rm_?
.....WW wv ?l<ftlVO UII UVJUI. Hie
R-34 at full speed had a cruising,radius
of a little more than 4,900 miles. :
A complete comparison of the two
airships follows:
Length (feet): R-34, 654; ZR-2,
695.
Diameter (feet): R-34, 78; ZR-2, 85.
Capacity (cubic feet): R-34, "2,000,000;
ZR-2, 2,700,000.
Total lift (tons): R-34, 59 1-2;
ZR-2, 83.
Engines: R-34,1 5; ZR-2, 6.
"Ceiling" or maximum altitude
(feet): R-34, 13,800; ZR-2, 25,000.
Cruising radius at 60 miles per
hour: R-34, 4,900; ZR-2, 6,000.
Officers and crew (men): R-34, 30;
ZR-2, 42.
Gasoline supply (gallons): R-34,
7,500; ZR-2, 8,000.
Time in crossing Atlantic (hours):
R-34, 108; ZR-2, 72 (estimated).
Aboard the R-34's gondolas, the five
cars suspended from the airship's
framework, the living conditions were
not so comfortable as provided on
the ZR-2. The R-34, however, had
sleeping accommodations for the officers
and crew and an electrical apparatus
whereby meals could be cook- .
ed. Hot water was obtained from the J
radiators on the motors. All the gondolas
were enclosed and the men were
able to keep warmer than if they had
1 /*
uuen nying in an airplane. A wireless
set in the forward ear with a range
of about 1,500 miles enabled the R-34
to keep in touch with the shore almost
the entire way across. A still
stronger apparatus has been installed
in the ZR-2.
Seen in flight the ZR-2 closely resembles
her sister ship, the R-34, but
her improvements are concealed amid
a bewildering confusion of aluminum
girders, rows of gasoline and water
tanks, acres of fabric gas bags and a
miscellany of guy wires, control
valves, pipes, swivels and hinges.
A telephone system connects up the
entire ship so that Commander Maxfield,
standing at the wheel in his
cabin, has every part under his direct
and immediate pnnt.ml
hunks are provided for the off-shift of
the 30 officers and men, instead of
hammocks, as provided on the R-34.
Warm meals are also made possible by
a system of cooking over engine exhaust
heat.
Electric lights are freely provided
and the ZR-2 has been equipped with
a device that will enable her to "anchor"
at a mooring" mast and replenish
her gas, oil, water and fuel containers
through huge feed pipes. In
addition to the foregoing equipment,
the ZR-2 is built to cnrrv the biggest
, armament of a dreadnaught of the
, air, 14 I*ewis guns, a one-norn<' auto,
matic gun, four bor bs of r'"f> pounds

LITTLE ONES BECOME BIG ONESMany
of our friends ask us why we put forth
such efforts as we do to get small accounts, many
of which are started with deposits of only one dollar.
It is true that such accounts do not begin to
repay the cost of handling.
V
However, we are building for the future. These
small accounts will grow. Many of them will in
time become very profitable. The small depositor
of today will be the large depositor of tomorrow.
The boy who opens the dollar savings account will
in a few years be the business man with a valuable
commercial account.
We want the youngsters to get in the habit of
banking with us now, so that they will stay with
us during the years to come.
