Over all, the R-34 is 640 feet, in length, with four cars, or gondolas, suspended from the cigar-shaped envelope. The forward gondola is occupied by the navigator and pilots and from it all parts of the ship are controled by means of speaking tubes and bell signals. is the wireless room, also holds In the rear of the forward, gondola one of the ship's engines.

The two side gondolas each contain an engine and are only large enough for two men to work. The rear car holds two engines. Inside of Big Bag Is Secret. While the gondolas can be seen by visitors to the field. little or nothing has been allowed to filter out concerning the inside of the big bag.

In side the bag is the deck of the ship. It runs the greater part of the length of the bag and is only nine inches wide, except at its middle where it widens out into a compartment eight by twenty feet, used by the officers and crew as a dining saloon. The hydrogen gas--the lifting power of the ship--is carried in compartments inside the envelope. These compartments are at the top of the ship and are of gold beaten skin, which in common language is nothing more then the linings of intestines of calves. When ready to start on a flight, the final inflation of these gas containers is made.

This operation takes place usually at the minimum temperature the air when taken the greatest the of gas can be into bags. The expansion of gas in the bags is relieved by releasing water ballast at the rate of ten percent of water in 20 degrees of rising temperature. Also ten percent of water ballast is released in each 2500 feet of altitude. Fuel Carried in 81 Tanks. When the R-34 leaves the ground it is permitted to rise to its equilibrium, or about as high as it can go.

On reaching its equilibrium the engines are started and the flight begins. The fuel--gasoline and oil--is carried in 81 tanks. Sixteen of these tanks are fixed to the framework of the bag structure and the others are known as sliding tanks and can be discarded as ballast should the occasion arise. The water ballast is carried in canvas bags of two types. There are eight emergency bags, four forward and four aft, which may be emptied in emergency because they can not be controled.

Six other water bags are controled by levers and their contents can be released as desired. The water ballast contains alcohol in sufficient amount to prevent freezing in high altitudes. Chairs Aboard Ship. The dining salon contains three tables capable of being raised to the upper frame work when not in use. The salon is large enough to permit half of the crew to eat at a time.

The food is cooked by appliances attached to the exhaust pipes of the engines. The diners stand at a cupboard, there being no chairs aboard the ship. The crew sleep in light hammocks along the sides of the deck suspended out over the bag proper, an in case a sleeper falls from his net there is nothing to prevent him from falling through the bag to death.
