INVENT SUB LIFE BOAT
lowans Construct Craft to BE Used by
Crews Of ImperiIed SubmersibIss---
Boat to Be Attached to Outer Cavity
Of Submarine.

McGregor. Jan "A life boat for
w. Appleman of Clermont, and Will
lard Daubenberger, Of Postville. They
claim the craft when installed on a
submarine will furnish sure means
of escape to the crew in case of mis-
hap under the water Patents are now
pending in the United states and will
be applied for in all countries operat-
ing or building submarine boats.
The life boat is designed by its in
ventors to be carried in an outer
cavity in the hull of the submarine
and add nothing to the weight OF the
undersea craft.
At danger times the crew on the
submarine can quickly enter the life
boat thru a trap door in the bottom
The craft with it's refugees on board
may then be automatically released
from the hull and by its own buoyancy
will rise like cork to the surface OF
the sea. bearing the crew in safety to
the upper world.
AS submarines are equipped al
present their crews are hopelessly lost
whenever an accident or mlshap Oh
any kind befalls the craft.
The tragic fate of all aboard the
United States submarine "a IN
Hawaiian waters is a recent example
and demonstrated the great need TOT
some safety device which will give the
crew chance to escape destruction
when the submarine meets disaster.
Mr.. Appleman and Mr. Dauben
berger say the problem of life boats for
submarines has engrossed the atten-
ton of inventors for a long time, but
nothing practical has resulted. the
great difficulty having been to design
craft not requiring change in the
general plan of the hull OF the sub
marine The Iowa inventors say they
have so completely overcome this OBJ
stacle that their life boat can easily
be installed on any kind of submarine.
