Officials Decide to Make No
Attempt to Repair Inflated
Submarine.
OTHER F.BOATS RENOVATED
Vessels Withdrawn From Serv-
ice to Permit 0verhauIing to
Prevent Disaster.

Secretary OF the Navy Daniels and
navy officials have decided to make
no attempt to repair the F-4. The
submarine will be sent to the scrap
heap.
For the present. the rest of the F
boats have been withdrawn from
service. They are to be overhauled
and made more serviceable. New
engines will be put into them and.
profiting by the lesson Of the F-4, new
battery Innings like those in subma-
rines of new types will be employed.
The new battery Innings are to pre-
vent repetition OF the trouble which
caused the loss of the FL This. ac-
cording to the naval board. which in
vestigated the disaster, was corrosion
OF q rivet in one of the ballast tanks
which permitted sea water from the
tank to penetrate to the exterior OF
the submarines storage batteries and
thence to the interior of the tank.
According to Henry X. Carsc, presi-
dent OF the Electric Boat Company,
which built the vessel, however, I'M
proper handling and not corrosion or a
rivet caused the disaster.
No attempt Is to be made to fix per-
sonal responsibility for the loss Of the
submarine.
Tragic as was the fate OF the crew OF
the F-4, 1t Is the hope of navy officials
that out of the tragedy will grow bet
terments in the submarine service.
Secretary Daniels sa ID today copies OF
be sent to all submarine officers and to
other high officers of the navy. More
over. copies will be sent to the Naval
War College.

Measures are now being taken TO
guard against deterioration of this

been a contributing cause to the ac-

"1'he question of air valves having
