Does an iron ship Sink 20 the bottom
OF the sea no matter what the depth?
NJ. A. SoUTHwoRTH,
This is a common doubt Really there
is no reason why the sinking of a body
In shallow water should not continue In
deeper oceans. but the magnitude of the
sea appears to confuse the mind. So
skilled photographer as Commodore
Matthew Fontaire Maury allowed himself
TO believe that by reason Of depth and
sadness Of the ocean the bodies Of dead
sailors stopped short of the bottom and
there interrupted awaited the day OF the
seas last gift. Since Maury's time the
salinity of the ocean has been determined
in every sea and for every depth. and 1t
has been established that at no place is 1t
sufficient To prevent the sinking of a
vessel. The sounding apparatus used on
naval and scientific exploring vessels
reaches every depth, even me ahyss Of
nine miles in the Nero Deep between
Guam and the Philippines.
