VI, tho largest of the navy's un- derS"A vessels, which is at the sub marine base here undergoing a sfri"S of availability tests is faced with the problem Of ri1ding itself of rats, The craft recently returned 10 the country from 14,000 mile cruise in southern waters. during the conrse of which stops were made at Narions Caribbean sea and at South American ports. It was at one of these points that the rates succeed ed in getting abroad the craft. They are of South American species, huge, long tailed. upturned nosed rodents, and they have multiplied very rapidly.
 Officials are at loss as to what plan to pursue to rid the ship of them. They cannot be poisoned for they would then crawl away 10 die in the remote parts of the hull and in the partitions, and 1t would be impossible 10 locate them. The TO- dents are willy creatures and have rofns"d to be lured into traps of various types which members of the crew have set.
 A clubbing party has hcen or gnnizcd aboard the craft, and armed with clubs the members of the crew make daily rallies into the store rooms and other compartments seeking out the rodents. Many of the rats have been killed in this nanrcr. but no approciablr inroads have been made in the rat colony.
