WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A
SHIP STRIKES a NINE

But 10 the merchantmen, to the
smaller and older warships-to ev-
erything that floats. except the very
highest and more recent products OF
the shipbuilders' art-the mine pre-
sents the danger of complete and al
most instant humiliation. The rig
idity of the ship is In itself an eie-
ment of danger, for the water sur
rounding it is incompressible. lf'
the body and frame could give way
without rupture, and permit the
enormously expanded gases $4,000
times the volume of the solid explo-
sive) to transmit their energy in
such a way as simply to push the
ship aside, and thus find way to
the surface, the damage might be
slight. But this cannot be. There
is no such elasticity available. And
the expansion is so nearly instan-
taneous that pushing the ship aside
is physically impossible. Therefore
the structure must break, releasing
the gases first into the interior and
then by lines of least resistance IL
nally up into the air This action is
completely instantaneous. 1t blows
off hatch covers and deck plates,
twists massive steel frames into
unrecognizable shapes, spreads hav-
oc broadcast. 1t transmutes
proud ship into a sinking mass of
wreckage-a happy passenger sa-
loon into hambles-carries
mourning into a hundred homes.
