SALVAGE SUNKEN VESSELS
Undersea Craft Directed by Ship
on Surface-Submarine Will
be Tested in About Two
Months-Expects to Explore
The Ill-Fated Lusitania.

MILFORD, Conn, Aug. Simon
Lake. inventor of the Lake subma-
rine, has devised a new underwater
craft by which he hopes to recover
the lost fortunes OF vessels that have
lain for years on the floor of the sea.
BY its help he expects to send divers
into the wrecks Of both the Lustania
and the gold-hearing galleons Of the
Spanish main to salvage whatever
treasure went down with them,
Mr. Lake at his home here tonight
explained that his new invention Is an
Improvement on the old Argonaut
with which he salvaged sixteen
wrecks along the bottom OF Long
Island Sound sixteen years ago. 1t is
composed of . surface ship, from
which depends submorsible running
on wheels along the sea floor. Power
to run the wrecking craft Is trans
mtted from the mother ship above,
saving the expense of storage batter
les and ventilating apparatus.
The submarine, with its surface
ship, can cover from twenty to forty
square miles Of sea bottom in day.
The crew remain above until a look
out below locate the wreck, when
they descend connecting tube and
begin operations. The craft can OPP
crate to depth Of 300 feet, far great
or than divers can be used success
fully.
Coal from the bunkers of wrecks
will be cne of the prizes for salvaging.
A special apparatus has been de-
signed by which the submarine can
suck in 500 tons an hour from
wreck without her crew having to
leave their ship. The many mer-
chant ships sunk during the war will
furnish rich field after hostiities
end
Mr.. Lake is already assembling the
first Of his craft, which will be ready
in about two months. 1t will be used
onlv for pleasure purposes, however.
The surface ship is to be fitted up as
a house boat, including even garage
on the stern. In It the inventor plans
to spend several months cruising
about the Caribbean sea. inspecting
the submarine gardens Of the sea.
The building of the commercial.
boats will start soon A group OF
business men, whose names Mr.. Lake
will not divulge, has offered to start
new company uader his direction
for the work and negotiations are on
toward that end The submarine, the
inventor explained is an entirely diff.
fercnt and separate project of which
he tCld some time ago.

SOLE AUTHORITY IN STATES
Declares People Seem to Think
Anything not Forbidden by
Constitution Can be Done by
United States Congress
Senator Hardwick Opposes it.

WARRINGTON, Aug. Z. Proposed
child labor legislation should be sub
mitted to the states in the form of
a constitutional amendment, de-
clared Senator Overman in speech
in the senate today, in opposition to
the child labor bill. .Ie said congress
had no constitutional authority to
enact such law.
For hundred years or more it
was almost universally considered
that no legislation uould be enacted
which was not authorized by the con
stitution," said Senator Ovcrman.
Now with many it seems to be the
| theory that anything not forbidden by
| the constitution can pe enacted. That
clause of the constitution which says
all power not granted by the const:
| tuition is reserved to ,he people is re-
garded lightly, and is void Of mean
i ing.
| III this legislation is constitutional,
! Mr. President there will be nothing
| left OF the rights Of states, but there
will be an absolute absorption of the
! police powers of the fortyeight SOW
| ereign commemorative. and there
| will Ee no barrier in the way of cen
| tralization Of all power in Washing.
| ton, to which goal we are now rapid
| ly drifting"
Senator Overman declared that the
ultimate purpose of the measure un-
hder the guise of regulating com
merce, was tc regulate production in
| the manufactures and mills in the
| country.
1t is indirectly to do what you
cannot do directly" he continued. ut
| is to put state under duress and
| compel ii to do that which some
states have done in order to have
uniformity. A congress has the ex-
elusive power over interstate ccm-
merce, so the state has the exclusive
power to control it's own domestic
and internal affairs, and it should be
permitted to do so without question
Let the powers enumerated in the
constitution remain United Let the
reserved powers in the people be un-
| disturbed. Let the integrity and
autcnomy Of the states be upheld
Encourage state pride. Capitalization
would be constant menace to the
| liberties of the people, breeding cor
ruption and oppression. These re.
served powers are in the people of
the states. IT is theirs to hold, II Is
theirs to surrender. but when once
surrendered it can never be regainod.
| say with great Judge who wrote 1t,
that that government is the best
which while performing all its duties
interferes the least with the lawful
pursuits Of the people"
Senator Overman submitted stati5-
tics to support his contention that
/ fewer children were committed to
/ ials and work houses in North Caro-.
! lima than IN states where stringent
| child labor laws were enforced
Statistics for 1910, he said, showed
that only fifteen children in 100000
between fourteen and sixteen years
cf age in North Carolina were com
mitted to Jail or work houses, as
compared with 279 in Massachusetts
