Staff Correspondent) London, Nov. 3. — (United Press)— | Far from being dismayed by the fate of the Shenandoah and the disasters i which have fallen its own airships. I Great Britain is about to start the construction of two dirigibles each more than twice the size of the Shenandoah. I “England has never lost faith in di-

rigibles," declared a high official of the British Air Ministry in an exclusive interview with the United Press today. "To prove this statement I will say ( that designs have ben completed and construction is about to he started on two dirigibles each of 5,000,000 cubic feet gas capacity. These are more than twice the size of any dirigible ever heretofore constructed." These will be known, he said, as the "R-100" and the "R-101”. The over all length of the new machines will be 750 feet and the diameter 130 feel. Ix*ss than 100 feet longer than the Shenandoah or the lt-33 which has recently made test trips over Ixmdon, the Increased gas capacity of the new air liners will be obtained by a marked increase in their diameter. “Yet despite the increase in the diameter of the new dirigibles." continued the official “model tests in windtunnels have shown that the new design actually presents less resistance Ito the air than the present dirigibles of half their carrying capacity." "In addition an entirely new type of construction will go into the making of 1 the new airships. Instead of the framework of the dirigible being based on laerodymnatical principles of construction as previously used the new frameI works will be built on principles followed and developed through long years ofsteam- ship construction. “By keeping the length of the machines approximately the same as in the largest of the present dirigibles and getting the increased capacity by increasing the diameter we are able to consruct a machine of much greater strength than has been possible in the past.” * Neither the Shenandoah nor the R-33 ' —both of which were torn from mooring masts during storms last year—had been designed with a view to use in connection with mooring masts, he said. But in the new R-100 and R-101 the designers were planning the mooring prows of the airships with special reference to their attachment to mooring masts. The new dirigibles will have a speed I of about 70 miles an hour and will be I propelled by seven 600 horsepower en- . gines of the Diesel type, using heavy fuiel oil instead of gasoline. The dirigibles will be constructed in the Royal ’ Airships Works at Cardington, England, where workmen are already busy enlarging the present sheds in anticipation of the commencement of the work on the new machines. After extensive tests of work completed arships have been made, said the official, it was the intention of the
