recurrence of warship accidents
such as have occurred altogether too
often in recent months. In January
two of the battleshfps starting for the
maneuvers off Cuba collided and were
laid up for repairs. Norfolk was next
the scene of a collision between two
torpedo boats, in which one barely es-
capped sinking. Then the Rhode Island
got into trouble again, and her captain
has been suspended from duty for six
months. for grounding his vessel off the
Virginia coast last May. The collision
between the Alabama and the Illinois
affair. Two of the officers of the Ala
bana have been recommended for
court-martial. Lastly. the grounding
of the cruiser Boston off the coast of
Washington has still further added to
the list of accidents already too long.
These mishaps have centered atten-
tion on the means of safety with which
all new United States battleships are
provided in the form of electrically
operated power doors. An ex-naval of
ficer, who is thoroughly familiar with
the subject says: 1T is practically
impossible to carry out. the collision
quarters drill in a really effective man
ner and close all water-ti tight doors and
matches within a safe period by hand.
With Long Arm electrical power doors
the means and method of avoiding
catastrophe are entirely different.
When the ship enters a dangerous To-
cality the officer of the deck closes all
the doors from the bridge by means
of the emergency station, connected
with motors on each door by electrical
conductors. He knows that the doors
have responded by the glowing of the
Indicator lamps at the station.
''The whole operation means that the
ship is made safe in time; that the
bulkhead doors vital to her safety can
always be closed and the ship rendered
unsuitable. The Victoria -Camperdown
disaster could not be duplicated with
any of our new ships, for the reason
that their commanders always have at
hand a means of closing the bulkhead
doors, without regard to what the crew
may do" ~
