NEW ENGINE DESIGN

Claims Made In Russia

(Rec. 8 p.m.) MOSCOW, Dec. 26. Light - weight double - action piston engines “of 3200-miles-an-hour capacity” had been developed in the Soviet Union, a designer, Mr S. Balandin, reported in the newspaper, “Sovietskaya Aviatskia,” today. Described as compact, highspeed linkless piston engines—much more efficient than conventional crank-link engines—with a capacity of up to 10,000 horsepower, they opened new vistas for air and land transport, Mr Balandin wrote.

They used a “compact linkless power gear allowing for two-way action in the cylinders which have two cylinder heads instead of one, and into which the fuel is, injected from two sides,” he wrote.
