WASHINGTON, April 20-(R)
Existence of a new, top-secret
chemical torpedo" in the Ma
vy's arsenal came to light today
Although officially disclosed,
requests for further details on
the weapon brought no inform
alton from the Navy except that
the subject is secret"
Such information as was re-
leased in publicly printed Con-
gressional hearings, gave no in
dication of the significance of
the name Chemical" but it evi.
IDENTIFY applies to a modification
of the old style steam-turbine
propulsion.
Such evidence is found in the
fact that existing naval estab-
lishments equipped to reassem-
BILE those underwater missiles
after they have been ranged in
firing tests will do the same
work on the new type.
Torpedoes probably are the
most complex, delicately assem-
bled and hence most costly
wholly dependable instruments
of destruction in the whole field
of ordnance. PreWar costs
ranged up to $4,000 each, al
though wartime mass production
has brought their cost down to
about $4,000 unit.
The old style torpedo, in ad-
dition to its "warhead" of sever
al hundred pounds of TINT, has
its own built-in propulsive me-
chanism put into operation by a
trip-lever released when the
torpedo is fired.
About one third of the tube
consists of flask of air under
high pressure. When the tor
pedo is fired, the air escapes
through small pipe lines into a

(P-Last July Audrey Miller,
Canadian skater, refused to take
the oath of allegiance in fed

ceremony because a former Jap

"How can l be sworn in along

he is an American Soldier.

TEMPLE. Texas WP) -
Somewhere in a German prison
camp there is a Canadian car
penter who works with metal
and wood that many of his fel~
low prisoners might walk again
without a crutch or cane.
Many of the repatriates who
arrived at McCloskey General
Hospital recently from German
prison camps came in on artific'
ial legs provided for them by
this Canadian carpenter.
The men he helped don't even
know his real name-just call
him "Zeke." They don't remem-
Der whether he was big or little
They just remember he was a
man, this carpenter from Cana
da.
"Zeke" was captured during
the bloody Commando raid on
Dieppe, and it wasn't long after
that he started making artificial
legs for his fellow prisoners.
According to S/Sgt John D
Taber of Calua, Okla, the Ca
madam has an anvil and hand
