that the undersurface c.aft might be de-

This campaign against submarines. which
every one recalls was one of the great prob
lens of the war. also brought out the depth
bomb, which was shot off the afterdecks of
destroyers and other craft to destroy the
enemy.
There was romance. too, in the produc-
ton OF the first machine to transmit unde-
cpherable code. This was one of the most
important of all the inventions of the war,
and made certain that messages could be
sent without the Enemy being able to read
them.
The machine Is capable Of transmitting in
plain English messages absolutely unde-
cipherable en- route. 1t is the only unde-
cipherable code device known to man.
The machine will transform an ordinary
message into cipher, transmit II with abso-
lutte secrecy and decode IL at the other end
The message travels along at the rate OF
from forty to seventy words a minute.
The message is first written in plain Eng
lish In the Office in which IL originates II is
copied then, on a typewriter keyboard. by
which IL Is set down into a combination of
perforations on a long paper tape. This
tape Is fed into a transmitter and the re-
suit, at the other end of the wire. is tape
containing a corresponding set OF perfora-
tions. Run through a deciphering machine
II comes out In plain English as originally
written. Through the shifting Of the keys
Il is possible 60 create 999 900 code combina-
tions, none OF which can be read during
transmission. IL insures absolute secrecy I'm

devised for a specific and constant air
pressure When used for shells from an
anti-aircraft gun they did not work satisfac-
torily due to the fact that they could not
be adjusted to the rarefied air encountered
in high attitudes.
This problem was met and solved by the
Waltham Watch Company. and its en-
gineers The fuse developed is a mechani-
cal device working very much on the order
of an ordinary watch, which. when set for
a specified number Of minutes will function.
The Sam Browne belt, such as is worn by
the officers of the United States Army. first
put in its appearance during the world war,
although 1t was the development of British
officer, Sam Brown, in Africa The belt first
was used by the British. In the opinion
of some of the highest officers of the Amer
ican and allied armies it has been we'll
worth while.
In the first place during operations. the
belt enables the officer to be readily dis
tinguished from the enlisted man. He may
be covered with mud. in the trenches but
every one knows, from the belt, that he is an
officer. The belt, being the color of the uni
form, is not distinguishable far beyond the
line-that Is, the enemy cannot see whether
a man is wearing belt or not.
The New York herald., 1922-01-01
A Good Soldier Is He Who
Takes Most Pride in Appearance

But equally important is the effect the
belt has on the officer morale. An ill-fitting
blouse or one that Is soied shows up more
readily when an officer wears a belt, so that
the belt forces the officer to be more careful
of his appearance. II is held to be true by
military authorities that the efficient army is
the army which is careful Of its personal
appearance.
In this connection II is interesting to re-
call that the British army carries this idea
to what might. TO tho casual observer be
considered the extreme. Take for example
the British artillery. Every night the
horses are curried and the harness is cleaned
so that II shines 1t makes no difference IL
the march has been on in the mud all day
and IL II is to be continued tomorrow, under
the same conditions. The theory is that IL
will strengthen the morale OF the different
organizations for them to keep their equip
ment looking bright. II is a standard for
which the British army is striving con-
stantly. Much the same rule applies In
the United states army.
The development OF heum gas, in the oil
fields of Texas, came with the world war.
This gas, about which so much has been
written of late. because Of it's successful use

Airplane. and Submarine
Telephones Grew Out of Late War

Similarly there was developed a system OF
teephoning from submarine TO submarine
and, more important than all, device which
permitted submarine detection. of the great
est value in the defeat of the German sub
marine campaign. This instrument, con-
nected with land stations by cables, was
planted on the floor of the ocean, each
equipped with a detector- -transmitter to
rick up the sound of n submarine propeller
II was possible through this instrument to
establish the fact that q submarine was
operating beneath the surface. and II was
possible also, to give the approximate loca-
tion. When such information was obtained

in navy dirigible, Is Intended for balloons.
1t overcomes one of the great difficulties ex-
perienced with balloons in the past, when
they were inflated with hydrogen gas.
1t was easy enough TO destroy balloon
filled with hydrogen. All the enemy had to
do was to hit it with an incendiary bullet,
and the balloon went up in flames. Hydro
gen is highly inammable. But this is not
true of helium II has all the buoyancy of
hydrogen-perhaps a little less-but il will
not burn. With the development of helium
has come also the development of a special
type Of valve to be used on the gas bags.
One Of the important things about the dis
covery, or rather the development of
helium gas. is that the United States has
the only supply of it in the world Il makes
military ballooning safe for the United
States. while all other nations at the present
time are at a disadvantage in this regard
being forced to depend still on hydrogen.
In the field OF communication, both for
the army and the navy there was remark
able development during the war-develop-
ment. too, that win be of great use TO the
people of the world in time of peace. All
the resources of the nation-civil and mill
tary--were called into play to solve the COM
munication problems that were acute from
the fact that the battle line was 1900 miles
away from the actual base of operations.
One of the outstanding developments in
the way of communication was the arplane
telephone. which was brought out at the
Signal Corps cantonment at Little Silver,
N J. Through this-an application of
radio--it is possible for arplanes in flight to
communicate with each other and with the
ground.

War Development Has Much
Increased Since Armistice

The truth is that this development has
progressed more since the armistice than 1t
did before. The ideas, or large number of
them, we're obtained during the war, but
the end came too soon to put them into
application. The construction Of 1000
pound bomb, the largest known in military
operations. is the work OF recent months.
Up until recently there has never been
bomb sight really worthy of the name.
The airplane was fairly well developed, it
is true when the war broke out but only
the most preliminary study had been given
to its uses in time of hostilities. The few
airplanes the armies had were intended for
gathering information about the enemy.
Their use, as known to-day developed grad
ually after the war began.
This came about when one airplane, intent
on flying over the enemy's line to get in
formation, was attacked by another. In the
first instance ners although from opposing
armies, simply saluted each other when they
passed. Then one day one fired on another
and 80 II was that air battles began. The
use Of bombs from airplanes wns n similar
development.
Instead OF the small bombs that were in
use when the war ended, the armies now are
equipped with large bombs and bombs OF
many kinds each for It's special purpose
demolition bombs for use against intrench-
ments. augmentation bombs sending out
waves OF small bullets for use against
troops, gas bombs and incendiary bombs, 20
