Cause for Disaster Is Sill
Conjecture : No Life
Remains Aboard

PORTSMOUTH, NU. f., May 26.
Asserting that the cause of the
sinking of the submarine Squalls
on Tuesday, and the subsequent
loss OF 26 lives, is unknown, Capt.
II. r. Greenlee. manager of the
Portsmouth Navy Yard said ANY
thing said about an induction valve
being open is merely conjecture"
1t was originally believed that an
open induction valve allowed water
to pour in while the Squalls was
making fast dive.
Alfred g. Prien, 26, Machinists
Mate, asserted the control board
lights indicated the valve was
closed
Meanwhile, divers went down to-
day to attach a permanent descend
ing line to the deck gun of the
Squalls and clear away antennae
or anything else that might inn
pede salvage work. Steel chains, at
tached to pontoons will probably be
used in bringing the Inflated craft
to the surface.
Late yesterday, divers returned to
the rescue ship Falcon and report
ed no apparent life remained aboard
the sunken vessel.
