DESIGNER SEES STREAMLINING AS AID IN WAR Nation Adapting Principle to Tanks and Warships Sure to Profit. (Copyright. 1935. by United Pre>**.) NEW YORK, April 19.—Participant* in the next war will find a stanch ally in the almost unknown acience of streamlining as applied to lard tanks and naval destroyers, Norman Bel Geddes predicted today. The world power that first develops in practical form the value of the science in its applications to machines of war should conceivably have a tremendous advantage In offensive and defensive operations, the American designer believes. Mr. Geddes. who is an “antlwarist.” nevertheless foreseeing a period of emergency silch as war fostering a study and application of stream-lining principles, ventured a guess—predicated on the greatest need among machines of war—that streamlining may even, some day, be applied to shells to give them greater speed and what is more important, greater accuracy. Possibilities Are Unlimited “The possibilities of many .applications of streamlining as yet undeveloped might be realized and made use of as a war neceisity,” Mr. Geddes said. The designer explained that the first consideration of war equipment design is maximum effectiveness for offense and defense, regardless of original cost or cost of operation. “For that reason economy of operation—a vital factor in civil transportation—is not a major consideration," he added. “However, fuel savings resulting from streamlining would Increase the range of operation and in this respect would increase fighting effectiveness.” Tanks of the World War were slow moving objects travelling at speeds hardly affected by air resistance, he said. Design Gives More Room “The new' tanks, however, capable of 60 miles an hour over rough terrain have reached a point where reduced air resistance would materially improve performance.” Forms of streamline character, applied to machines of war, would serve purposes other than to decrease air resistance, in Mr. Geddes’ opinion. There are, for example, direct offensive and defensive considerations inherent in the curved surfaces of such forms which make their use on tanks advisable. Round surfaces, the designer pointed out, would Increase deflection of shell fire and therefore decrease penetration. In the same manner, the shape of the curved, as against the rectangular form, would tend to give maximum interior volume for minimum of surface, permitting either reduction of total weight or heavier armor. Modern naval destroyers, with speeds well over 40 knots, would gain a definite margin of speed with

the application of streamline principles. “Rounded surfaces, moreover, increase the seaworthiness of such craft since they tend to shed easily water that comes over the bow," Mr. Geddes said. “They would permit destroyers to drive for a longer time into head seas and would make possible operations in heavier weather than these small craft are now suited for.” Streamlined destroyers, more seaworthy than their orthodox brothers. would probably have greater stability and as a result, improved accuracy in gun fire. Like the streamlined tank, their curved surfaces would aid deflection of enemy shells. “There is no doubt there will be another war.” Mr. Geddes declared. “Mobility will be its keynote. Although there is now no definite activity by any government toward the development of streamlining, it is safe to predict that its principles will be introduced before the end of any future war.” Mr. Geddes' office contained nothing suggestive of war, but there were numerous reminders that he is America’s leading exponent of this science borrowed from hydrodynamics. Models of streamlined trains projected out from one wall and on a table was the recently completed model of a streamlined yacht for a client in Europe. Atop a white mantel was the model of a streamlined ocean liner, its superstructure hidden by its rounded surface.

HATFIELD PROTESTS HOLT’S SENATE SEAT Defeated Candidate Claims Young Victor Misled Voters. By United Press WASHINGTON. April IS—Henry D. Hatfield, defeated Republican candidate for Senator from West Virginia, today had on file before the Senate a protest on the election of Rush D. Holt, who will not reach the eligible age of 30 until June. Mr. Hatfield’s petition asserted Senator-Elect Holt misled the voters when he told them he was qualified. It asked the Senate to declare his election void and give the seat to the candidate who received the next highest vote—Mr. Hatfield. The petition was referred to the Senate privileges and elections committee. GRIDLEY NAVAL CAMP TO SELECT OFFICERS Robert Scrogin Is Named to Instructoral Staff.
