NEW WAR DEVICE
FOR DEADLY AIM
sEC'Y DANIELS AND ADMIRAL.
STRAUSS PRAISE INVENTION.
FOR COAST DEFENSE PURPOSES
A Wireless Controlled Torpedo 10
New invention BY John Hays
Hammond, Jr., For the More
Accurately Aiming.

Washington, Sept. 22.-As the. re-
suit of a conference at the Navy De-
partment between Secretary Daniels
and John Hays Hammond Jr., the bu-
reau of ordnance of the navy will test
a new invention by the latter for use
in more accurately aiming torpedoes.
After explaining his invention to
the Secretary of the Navy, Mr.. Ham
mond was referred to Rear Admiral
Joseph Strauss, chief of the bureau
of ordnance. Both Secretary DAN
iels and Admiral Strauss were SO
favorably impressed that they decid-
ed to test the invention.
The report prevailed that Mr.. Ham
mOnd proposed for the use by the
navy of a plan somewhat similar to
his wireless-controlled torpedo de-
vice for coast defense purposes which
has been recommended by army Off
Gals for purchase by the government.
1t was learned that Mr.. Hammond's
invention, instead of dealing with
the control by radio of torpedo af-
ter it is fired by naval vessel, con-
sists of a method or contriVance to
be used in aiming" torpedoes more
accurately and conveniently when
they are to be fired at great dis
lance. The Hammond invention is
not attached to the torpedo, but to
the tube from which the torpedo is
! fired.
Officials of the Navy Department
would not disclose details of the in
vention because they regarded it as
highly confidential.
Secretary Daniels is having a con-
ference today with Henry Ford, De-
,troit automobile inventor, who has an
idea for submarine improvement
which he wishes to submit to the
Navy Department. 1t is understood
to be equipment of the Hammond in
Vention with gas engine to give It
