Modern submarine boats are of two types the
submerged and the submergible. The submerged
when In light cruising condition moves with only
a small percentage of the hull above the water;
the submergible cruises on the surface much
like al ordinary torpedo boat, which it resembles
externally. The difference in principle between
the two types is slight, but in construction de-
tails it is very marked. The submerged boats
are usually nearly cylindrical with pointed ends
the general shape being much like that of
Whitehead torpedo. Submergence is effected by
admitting water to the ballast tanks or by means
of inclined rudders, or both. Submergible boats
have two bulls, inside the other. The outer
hull resembles closely that of the ordinary tor
pedo boat but has as few projections as possible
rising from the general outline, in order to pre-.
sent smooth surface when submerged. Inside
this there is second hull of nearly circular
cross-section and as large as the shape of the
outer boat permits. To effect submergence water
hrst admitted to the space between the bulls,
and this brings the boat to the 'awash" condi
uon Further submergence is effected by permit
ting the ballast tanks to fill.
When or by whom was built the first subma
rine boat will probably never be known 1t is
said that Alexander the Great was interested in
submarine navigation, while subaqueous attacks
OF vessels was studied at least as early as the
thirteenth or fourteenth century. M. Delpeuch
states that some English ships were DESTROYED
in 1872 by fire carried under water In the
early part OF the seventeenth century submarine
boats were numerous and in 1924 Cornelius Van
Drebbel exhibited to King James l. on the
Thames submarine boat of his own design. By
1927 no less than fourteen types of submarines
had been patented in England alone. In 1774

English submarines of about the same size as
the Salmon, which made the coastwise run from
Dover to Dundee, distance of 512 miles, and the
famous performance of the French submarine
Fapn' which on one occasion made cruise Of
i,ZV0 miles However. this French achievement
is overshadowed by the Salmons cruise because
not only was the distance Of the latter much
greater, but 1t was an open sea performance
whereas the Papin cruised along the coast and
finally, the French vessel is much larger than
the new American recordbreaker. the Papin be-
Ing OF $50 tons displacement, whereas the Salmon
Is of but 800 tons displacement
The Salmon, alike to most of the submarines
which have lately been added to the United
States navy, is development of the original
Holland type of submarine which first gave the
Americans the lead in this class Of shipbuildng.
The Salmon is 1875 feet in length by "A feet beam
and is twin-screw boat, being driven on the
surface by two gasoline engines of 300 horse
power each and propelled when submerged by
electrical power supplied from storage batteries.
By way Of fulfilling her mission Of destruction
the little vessel has four torpedo tubes equipped
to fire the latest type of torpedo-that is a tor
pedo II feet in length and is inches in diameter
having radius of 1900 yards and carrying an
explosive charge Of 200 pounds of guncotton. On
her cruise to Bermuda the Salmon carried
crew Of p men but it was demonstrated on this
cruise that under actual service conditions such
a submarine can be operated, in far as navi-
cation is concerned, by five men-two on the
bridge and three in the engine room.
The Salmon is capable of speed of Il knots
per hour when running awash or on the surface
Of the water and II knots per hour when running
wholly submerged. Only three minutes is re-

line engines to submerged running by electrical

10 the Salmon's recent record breaking
cruise from the Atlantic coast to Ber-

such as has had no parallel in the his
tory of underwater craft. The cruise
to Bermuda was not only the first
cruise by submarine to a foreign
