iCMVED ZEPPELIN'S
IDEA 31 YEARS AGO
3ffnerai Russell Thayer Pre
sented Plan of Dlrfgibld to
J Officer?, but v Was Not
, Supported by Congress
uWas vindicated by time
!
tSfrery time a bomb la dropped from
mfe 6t thoso slant ship o tlio air named
eppelitis, Arter the mnn who In ptenerally
Rfvtn credit for having been responlb1f
,, for their development, the memory of a
white-haired Philadelphia noes back 31
years to a dny, lonff before his locks took
ctl their nllver tint, when he nroused an
alidlenco of, American military men to en
thualaiim. by advancing to them his plan
for a bnttooti that could bo steered.
He seldom tolls people about It, how
v$r, and for that reason taw "peftorts Itt
thl 9lty know that General HUs-wll
Thayer, retlretl olTlccr of the United Statis
Army and of the National Guard of Ponn
tvlvahla. Is tho father of the modern
dirigibles that nr6 so much In evidence In
the present war.
"Wad Congress passed this approprla
tlon," he said when dlscuialng this matter
with rt reporter, "I bellovo the United
Stated and not Germany would bo the
loader In this useful Instrument of var
fare, Now wo arc dependent on the unr
reliable nenoplnno for whatever military
advantage Is derived from airships, ttovr
Germany Is virtually the only country In
tha world that operates tho dirigible"
General Thayer, who was Instructor of
artillery at West Point and later comman
der Of th,fl Philadelphia regiments In the
X. G. P , said he believed tlrauthc) dlrlglblo
balloon would not bo of very great nluo
In caso thero should bo war with Mexico.'
but pointed out that tho dlrlglblo wait In
valuable for purposes of national defense.
"With a dozen balloons of tho Zeppelin
type on each const we t:ould bo Inforry lul
long beforo their arrival of the npproatm
of hostile ships;" ho onld, "and it few
bombs mlghthlt some of tho npproachtng
war vessels. If thoy did tho enemy would
be very seriously crippled."
H was In 1SS5 thnt Ru'mqII Thayer, a
graduate of West Point and then but re
cently retired as first lieutenant In tho
United States Army, nppcared at a meet
ing of tho United Service Institution, an
association of army officers, held on Gov
ernor'a Island, tt, Y and presented what
ho bclloves was tho flrst plan ever made
for a balloon with a rigid body and which
could bo directed without dependence on
atmospheric currents.
Tho plan met with general commondo
tlon and ho took It to tho ordnance depart
ment of the United States Army. Thero.

again, It was praised and Congresi was
asked to appropriate $60,000 for experi
mentation purpose. , Congress refused and
tin, Thayer dropped tha matter because de
velopment of hln plan would have been n
matter beyond tho resources of a private
individual.
Hanging on, thd walls of General
Thayer's oftlco In .the, headquarters of th
Welsbach Light Company nt 1854 Mnrket
street, la a sketch whlcll appeared In Har
per's Magazine In 1S85 It 4a a combina
tion of the diagram bf tho Inventor ami
tho Imagination i-f the mng.ilho artist.
A dlrlglblo much different In shape than
the one wo know today h seen dropping a
bomb on tt 'city In much the same manner
rts thd J5efpollrn on their many raids of
England
Of course as Is always tho case, the
claims .put forth for the Invention were
regarded by many skeptically, but the
piesent generation Is seeing frequent ovl
dehce IniHurope that the Inventloh was no
wild dream, and the very Incident de
pleted In tho Illustration has been de
scribed more than one In tho news dis
patches, Generat Thayer built a small model of
his Invention out In Pnlrmount Park and
Imd It patented Tho model was only 30
feet long, but he proposed nt thnt tlmo to
build ono 1B0 feet long, and would hno
done no lind Congress furnished tho neces
sary funds. Besplto his deep Interest In
aviation ever slnco, General Thayer has
notcr made n Illght In the nlr.
The dlrlglblo ho planned was directed
not by a propeller, ns Is tho case with
tho Zeppelins, but by n high-speed com
pressed nlr generator, which pumped com
pressed air from tho fear of the balloon,
thus causing It to be driven In a forward
direction Oonernl Thayer bclloves It
possible that the time may yet come
when his method will bo ndoptcd In pref
erence to the propeller of tho Zeppelins.
Tho great obstacle In his way while mak
ing hla experiment!) 31 yearn ngo was tho
"high oost of ntu ml num. . Ills Idea was
. to" build tho cnvelopo "Or balloon part of
'tho, dlrlglblo of this matcilal, but nt that
limb aluminum wa-j quite expensive, and
could not bo obtained In large quanti
ties. Ho has never coated to regret tho fail
ure bf the United States to take up his
jirojcct tit tho time.
"Tho expenditure of $00,000 then might
havo put the United States ahead of tho
world In neronnutlcs today," ho i;ald.

Such a low price for such a

In fact Overland production is easily double that of any
other builder of cars of like class.
So in buying the Overland Six you not only secure a car of
very unusual'performance
But you get the advantage of the economies possible only
In the production of cars on so vast a scale.
While tho prices of established sixes are advancing, and
