HOW TO SCRAP SHIPS
PUZZLES NAVAL OFFICERS

Washington, Feb. 9.-(Dy the Asso-
ciated Press. Administrative Off
Gals are undecided as yet as to sug-
gestions that a veteran battleship CT
the fleet be scrapped in accordance
with the naval limitation treaty and
be sunk at sea with full military hon
ors to symbolic ratification of the
pact which will end competitive navy
building among the five great naval
powers. The idea is known to have
appealed 10 some high officers of the
government as fitting tribute to the
old battlecraft 1t has impressed
other officials as an undesirable and
impracticable course However there
is tC be no definite decision reached
until the full program of disposing of
scrapped battleships has been work
ed out in detail by technical experts
In any case. one of the ships des-
tined to be destroyed probably will be
sent to the bottom by gunfire. The
pre-dreadnaugh Iowa, now equipped
for distant control by radio and sue
cessfully tried out in aircraft ma
neuvers incident to the sinking of
former German craft last year, is to
be sunk by the fire of the fleet some
time this spring.

one in the forward end Of the ship,
and permits the slowing of tor
pedoes. warheads, etc.
The aftermost space of the boat
is the after trim tank, which, in
conjunction with the forward trim
tank, regulates the trim. These
tanks can be pumped full of Water
or emptied to such a degree as TO
obtain an even keel. High pressure
air TASKS are provided for the
starting of the main engines. The
various compartments are accessi-
bic from the deck by means of
quick-closing watertight matches.
The coming tower located di-
rectly over the control room is
thoroughly equipped with means
for the operation of ship. Tor
pedoes can be fired from here as
well as from the bridge. The
bridge is equipped with a pinnacle,
mounts for machine guns, voice
tubes and engine telegraph.
The fairwater in the reaT of the
bridge houses the air intake valves
for ventilating the ship and supply
ing air to the Diesel engines. the
periscope cylinders, and the tele-
scopic mast with the radio antennae.

the world looks upon the submarine
as legitimate weapon, .particu-
larly IN view Of its defensive uses,
and no limitation was placed upol
the building of submarines. The
contention that it was peculiarly
the weapon of. small nations was
generally recognized and its COM
parative cheapness recommended it
to the nations that were striving to
lift the economic burden imposed
upon the peoples of che world by
the expenditures of billions for
costly battleships. At the confer
ence the United States took the
view that its long coast line de-
manded the retention of the sub
marine as a means of preventing
invasion. AS a result Of these con-
ditions the conference contented
itself with writing into interna-
tional law a prohibition against at
tacks ON merchant vessels by sub
marines.
The modern submarine is by no
means the gas filed, thin-skinned
shell that decade ago endangered
the lives of its crew almost as
much as it menaced the enemy.
Today the submersible provides al
most complete comfort for the men
who really go down to the sea in
ships. To increase the size of the
submarine, and the perfection of
veDtilating systems have wrought
marvellous changes in the life of the
sailor who elects to follow the sea
beneath the surface. He has COM

inner and outer bulls is divided by
watertight bulkheads to form side
or wing tanks which are used for
water ballast when submerging the
vessels. In the forward end of the
submarine and surrounding the bow

which is used to keep the vessel I

The first compartment forward
is the Storpedo room, with its nest
of torpedo tubes and the torpedoes

the vessel. Impulse air tanks con-
nected with the tubes furnish the
air blast which starts the deadly
messengers on their way.
Comfortable Quarters.
Above the tubes in the forward
end of the room is vertical motor
for the operation of the deck cap
stan and the anchor winch gear.
The anchor is shown hauled up It

Just aft of the forward torpedo
compartment are the quarters of
the crew. They are fitted with
berths and lockers, lavatories and
shower baths. They are also used

leaving only the upper part of the

If it is desired tc sutmerge while
