FORD INSTALLS HUGE AIR CONDITIONER IN PLANE
ENGINE PUNT TO INSURE PRECISION WORKMANSHIP
i
Dearborn. Michigan—The larg
est air conditioning system ev
er installed in an American indus
tral plant is ready for operation
in the new $23,000,000 airplane en
gine factory at the Ford Rouge
plant.
Cooled, filtered air will be drawn
into this huge ‘‘black-out” type de
fense unit at the rate of 2,000,000
cubic feet a minute when the enor
mous air-eontrol system starts op
erating. according to Ford design
ers and engineers.
Although the airplane engine
plant contains more than 800,000
square feet of floor space. Ford
engineers said it would receive six
complete changes of conditioned
air every hour.
“That means a complete new
deal on air inside that plant once
every ten minutes and that’s real
ly a lot of air when you consider
the building contains 70,000,000
cubic feet of space,” one of them
said.
The new factory will be devot
ed entirely to producing 1850 and
2,000 horsepower, 18 cylinder Pratt
and Whitney Double Wasp aircraft
engines, used by the U. S. Army
in its most powerful airplanes.
Now in limited production on cer
tain parts for the engine the Ford
Motor Company expects to start
building complete engines within
a few weeks. The plant has a
planned initial capacity of one en
gine an hour during a 16 hour day.
It probably will be greatly enlarg
ed in the near future.
Air conditioning, Ford engineers
explained, plays a big part in the
precision workmanship required in
aircraft work. By controlling tem
peratures the year around, Ford
production experts are insuring
uniformity in metal stock and ma
chine tools, as well as providing
for the comfort of workers.
“Most of the work on the Pratt
and Whitney engine requires pre
* cision down to 1-10,000s of an
inch, so without a means of reg
ulating temperature there would
be variation in dimensions of ma
terials and in the adjustment of
delicate machines,” the Ford ex
pert pointed out.
“Clean air also is essential. This
big air conditioning system filters
out all harmful dust and removes
from the atmosphere oil fumes
that might be harmful to workers
as well as machines.”
The company engineer explained
that the air control system in the
new aircraft unit is also remark
able for the number of fan and
blower outfits. It contains 32
large intake fans in the main sec
tion of the plant, 16 on either side,
and has two more drawing air into
he aircraft apprentice school sec
tion. Six thousand tons of refrig
eration equipment cools the air.
‘‘This is comparable to the am
iunt of air conditioning equipment
used in a 25 story hotel building,”
he added.
WOMEN WILL BE ASKED
TO VOLUNTEER
Women in every city block in
Omaha will be asked to volunteer
to take part in a Red Cross Pre
oaredness drive to oo-ordinate the
trained services of all who have
taken Red Cross defense courses,
according to Miss Rosemary Tut
tle, secretary of the Douglas Coun
ty chapter of the American Red
Cross. It is intended that nearly
6.000 women will be included in
the organization of women bv
neighborhoods, streets and city
blocks, she said.
Mrs. Jack Abajian will be gen
eral chairman for the entire city,
... ,an::!::!;is; !
with an advisory councl assisting j
her. On the council will be the I
following: Mesdames Harley Con
ant. John Bosch, John C. Larsen,
R. H. Wensberg. L. J. Marcotte,
I Milton Mayper, H. H. Brinkman.
LaVeme Smith, Dwight E. Port
er, J. J. Keegan.
Working under Mrs. Abajian
ward chairmen will be responsible
for the preparedness organization
in their own wards. Alrady chos
en are Mesdames E. W. Donlin,
J. E. Oberreuter, Stanley Jackson
M. L. Donovan. Joh|n C. Blanchard.
Miller Prentice, R- B. Baker, Earl
F. Barnett, George F. Ashby, Ar
thur A. Fenger, and Albin A. Hoff
man.
Miss Tuttle explained that each
of the ward chairmen will choose
precinct chairmen for each block
in the city. Officially represent
ing the Red Cross in coordinat
ing all preparedness activities in
the block unit, these block chair
men will find out which persons
an their city blocks have beer,
trained in any phase of Red Cross
preparedness. Such trained per
sons will be organized for emer
gency volunteer work and train
ing will be offered to all others
who wish to serve as volunteers
in any capacity that has to do with
national defense.
“Red Cross services included in
national defense are first aid
bome nursing, motor corps, disas
ter preparedness, nutrition and
mass feeding, making of hospital
dressing and bandages for the
army and navy, sewing and knitt
ing, nursing aids, life saving and
water safety, hospital recreation
and occupational therapy, office
assistance, Braille for the blind,
and training courses for the as
sistants in military and naval wel
fare services.” explained Miss
Tuttle.
“Training in these services,” she
said “has been carried on for some
time in Omaha but will be ex
panded to meet emergency needs.
During the first six months of this
year more than 7000 persons have
been trained in these defense
measures in Douglas county, and
more than 30,000 persons in the
past five years. The newly form
ed co-ordination committee will
have the job of organizing and co
ordinating the services of all these
trained persons and extending the
training until our entire city will
ibe prepared for the emergencies
that may occur."
