HAMMOND IDEA IS OK,
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-
tons appropriation bill, which carries
S475,000 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 a craft
completely submerged except for an
air intake pipe.
Before finally deciding on the pur-
chase of the patents for $750,000 the
board desires further experiment with
the submerged craft.
Construction of the submerged
craft, which will be about so 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
a letter Of Maj. Gen. F. w. Coe.
member of the board, $50 long as it is
a surface vessel or has any antennae
above the water, by direct radio
waves, either from shore or from an
airplane."
With a shore station having a height
of 80 feet above sea level radio con-
troll Of the craft has been demonstrate
ed to the board up to a distance of
seven miles, but General Coe said that
if controlled from an airplane there
was no limit as to distance except the
propelling power Of the torpedo or the
boat that carried it or the airplane.

Clubs May Buy
$1,000 in Stamps

Fraternal organizations, counties,
municipalities and other political
subdivisions are classed as individ-
uals in a telegram from the treas
ury department to Governor John
U. Calkins of the San Francisco Fed
eral Reserve Bank, ruling that such
societies and corporations cannot in
vest more than the limit of 81 1000 in
War Savings Stamps and Treasury
Savings Certificates. The ruling
was asked by Robert E. Smith, di-
rector of the War Loan Organization
IT the Twelfth Federal Reserve Dis
riot, in response to general de-
mand on the part of fraternal or
carnations especially for the privi-
.ege of investing beyond the thous-
and dollar mark in the government
ar Savings Securities.
Assistant Secretary OF the Treas
Try Leffingwell, who sent the tele-
gram, called attention, however, to
fact that the individuals of a
fraternal organization can each in
vest the limit or have $1,000 in
vested in his name. Secretary Left
ingwell also pointed out that many
fraternal organizations are buying
Liberty Bonds and Victory Notes
with excess funds.

Distributing the .
Spoils of War

WASHINGTON. - Representative
Smith of Idaho is urging Legislation
providing for the distribution of
captured or surrendered German
cannon and machine guns for which
he has received many applications
from the cities and towns in Idaho,
especially those furnishing national
guard companies. Hhe has been ad-
vised by Major General Jervey, di-
rector of operations, that this ma
terial is being classified for distribu-
ton when authorized by congress.
1t is quite probable that the leg
islation when formulated will pro-
vide that the distribution shall be
made thru the governors of the
various states and territories in pro-
portion to the number of men fur
nished to the army and navy.
