OLD BATTLESHIP IOWA
TO Be A NAVY TARGET
Flagship Of Fighting Bob"
Evans Will Be Sacrificed In
Radio Control Experiments
D DETAILS ARE SECRET

Unless plans of naval experts fail.
the old battleship Iowa-in its day
pride of the American fleet and the
flagship of the late Fighting Bob
Evans-will be used as a moving tar
get for modern dreadnaughts, its
movements directed by powerful wire
less apparatus.
Details Of the project are being with
held for the present. Other nations are
considering numerous experiments
with wireless and none of them are
taking the world into its confidence.
Uncle Sam likewise proposes to keep
his own counsel until he has attained
the end sought.
Little Use To Navy
The Iowa is about 80 years old and
is of no further use as a fighting ma
chine. The shooting up" of the vet
eran battleship, therefore, will be but
slight loss to the navy. On the other
hand. by sending the Iowa out to sea
under wireless control and maneuver-
ing the vessel as If she were in battle
data will be accumulated for future
naval use.
Most targets of this kind in the past
have been fixed Targets also have
been towed by other ships at the end
of long cables. But a target moving
under such conditions furnishes only
a minimum of action. If plans work
out as the experts expect, the Iowa
will move around as If she were un-
der her own steam with full crew.
Radios Importance Gains
The contrivance to be employed in
the experiment is that of John Hays
Hammond, Jr., for the wireless control
of torpedoes. from land, with some
notifications. For example. it is prob
able that the movements of the Iowa
will be controlled from shore but from
warship.
other radio experiments are also un-
der way The battleship Ohio has been
fitted with new and powerful wireless
instruments, and during the next few
weeks will engage in extensive expert
ments. other nations are working
along this and other lines. In fact,
radio promises to become more and
more important ip future warfare on
both land and sea.
After the armistiee the War Depart
ment allowed it to become known that
the army had perfected radio control
of airplanes and had sent them as far
as 100 miles.
