HAMMOND IDEA IS OK.
CreWIess Ship Proves to Be a
Success.
Army and Navy Experts Report That
Wireless Control Is
Possible.

Washington.-Army and navy ex-
perts have reported the device of John
Hays Hammond, Jr., for radio control
of surface craft to be sent laden with
explosives against enemy ships a sue
cess. and predict similar results with
submerged craft showing above water
only wireless antennae.
Results of tests were made public
in connection with the new fortifica-
lions appropriation bill, which carries
$475,OO0 for construction of an exper-
mental submerged boat.
Secretary Baker wrote the house
appropriations committee, which is
considering the bill, that the joint
army and navy board was convinced
of the practicability of the control" of
the surface craft, and added that there
had also been demonstrations Of the
possibility Of the control Of craft
completely submerged except for an
air intake pipe.
Before finally deciding on the pur-
chase of the patents for S75O,O00 the
board desires further experiment with
the submerged craft.
Construction of the submerged
craft, which will be about 80 feet
long by feet in diameter, will take
two years. according to Mr.. Hammond,
who told the committee he has spent
ten years and 100000 on his inven-
ton.
There is no question whatever as
to the ability to control with great
accuracy the torpedo or carrier" said
