dean of the marine engineering depart
ment of the Chariot tenburg Technical
High School.
The professor, who Is Germany's
foremost shipbuilding authority, ia
about to make publlo In the Journal
of practical Machine Building, a German-American
Machinist, plans of a
novel unslnkable transatlantic vessel
of the largest dimensions. An advance
copy of his article has been placed at
the dlspossl of the New York Times
correspondent.
Professor Kretschmer Is Inspired to
give publicity to his Ideas at this time
by the international Inquest over the
Titanic disaster.
As the great shipping lines, he as
serts, cannot at present be persuaded
to abandon the old style of construc
tion, he hopes the traveling public will
take the Initiative and demand that
shipbuilders throw tradition to the
wind and resort to scientific engineers
for guaranteeing the ssfety of liners.
Professor Kretschmer thinks this
can be done by building tetrahedral
shirs, with a tapering bow. gradually
Increasing In width to a broad stern.
H. asserts that tbe tetrahedral type

present, being constructed so that

which, in spite of elaborate closing de
vices. Professor Kretschmer says, are
always a danger. The water-tight
compartments are carried three full
decks above the water line.
In case of collision the outer wall
or keel may be smashed and a few
compartments fill with water, but the
Inner ship will remain Intact and
afloat, as the pressure upon the out
side walls cannot be transferred.
Professor Kretschmer haa designed
a tetrahedral ship of approximately
the same slxe and carrying capacity
as the Mauretania, but of only 18,700
tons displacement compared with the
