NAVY TRAINING SUBMARINE MEN IN USE OF ‘LUNG’ — Practice Tank Erected to Speed Instrutcion in Escape From Disabled Craft New London, Con Aug 13 —(UP) The navy is slowly but steadily going about the huge task of training its entire submarine personnel in the use of the ‘ lung.’’ under water respiration device by which men may escape from the depths. In order to stimulate actual depth and pressure conditions without subjecting the men to the dangers of actual escape in the ocean, naval engineers are building a tank which may be flooded and entered through a lock at the bottom. The tank, equipped with a spiral stairway leading to a platform at the top, towers 12 feet high over the submarine base here. When flooded to the top it holds 240,000 gallons of water. When the tank is pumped full, a group of sailors to be trained will enter the control room or lock at the base. The room will be dry when ’hey enter and they will study tables attached to the walls telling when to breathe while ascending and how many breaths to take at certain stopping points. Then they will attach the lungs and turn valves to flood their compartment. When the pressure within equals that without, they will open and escape hatch, similar to that being installed on some of the newer.submarines, and send up a buoy carrying a heavy rope, knotted at the points where they must pause tor decompression in order to avoid ill effects caused by too rapid a change of pressure. The tank will enable the navy to speed its training program. The program of the submarine force call i for every officer and enlisted man to be experienced in use of the escape device. news - 1 ♦ 4 Mr. and Mis.

INSURANCE IS AID TO FLYING CLUBS OF U, S, National Aeronautic Association Provides Policy on Students’ Damages Detroit, Aug. 13—(U.R) — Determined that everyone who desires to own an airplane and learn to fly it shall realize his ambition in the safest and least expensive way, the National Aeronautic Association has evolved a flying club plan whereby air-mined persons can receive instruction in aviation from competent pilots with no danger of losing their plane through accident. The plan is in accordance with the objective the Association has held to since its beginning here in 1922: to make America the world's most air-minded nation. In doing this it has had the cooperation oft Tie Guggenheim fund for the Promotion of Aeronautics, which provided a grant of $12,000 especially to aid in the club work. According to the plan, the flying ciub is organized wherever is collected a group of persons, preferably from ten to three, desirous of securing an airplane of their own and learning how to fly it. Some of these should be qualified pilots or, if none has had flying experience, arrangements are made with an instructor to give the members of the club flying lessons. An airplane of the type approved by the Department of Commerce is next purchased, each member of the club contributing his share which probably ranges from $125 to SSOO depending on the kind ot craft and the numper of members. With arrangements for hangar and field, preferably a private one, made, the National Aeronautical

Association next steps in and aids ( the embryonic fliers in their most serious difficulties. The problem of liability and com- 1 pensation in case of repeated acci-: dents is solved by the generous in- 1 surance policy issued by the Associat'on whereby all damages beyond the first S3OO are recompensed regardless of how many accidents, minor or major, occur, without necessitating renewal of the policy. Thus even if the training plane is qoinpletely destroyed, the policy I still covers the new one purchased with the insurance money and the student fliers are assured of having a plane in w|!ch to continue their training. Safety of the beginners is guarded by the experience of the parent ■ organization and by the prepqjitfons it takes in ascertaining that the instructor or insructors are qualified to teach.
