Lindbergh, granting one of his rare inter views, said today he was convinced that- larger planes driven by fouT motors will be the next step in passenger air transport. -There is no such ship flying In this country, the bulk of transport and passenger carrying being done in trl-motored planes. "The details of such a plane," the colonel saldy "I believe we should leave to the aeronautical engineers. I hare no definite idea as to the arrangements of motors on such a ship. Maybe they should be in tandem, one bhind the other, maybe they should all be in one line." Whatever thefr position, he said the four-motored planes would do away with the necessity of placing one fn the nose of the ship where it throws Its gas fumes and ex haust back into the face of pass engers, and thus making flying much more comfortable. Discussing his own plans brief ly, he said he intended to be in New York for two -more weeks and that he would make one more trip across the country before July 1, the tentative opening day of the transcontinental air transport route.
