First Lady Launches Submarine Nautilus GRQT.OX Caam.VP , «=- J«fß ‘I ': Dwigfi t' D. ‘ Wenhower smashed a bottle of champagne across the bow of the USS Nautilus today and launched the world's first atomicpowered submarine into a new era of war or peace/ The nation’s First Lady sent the 55 million dollar craft gliding into the arms of waiting tugs, ushering in an age when the mighty atom will be put to work in homes and industrial plants, as well as in battle. The Nautilus will mark the first practical use of atomic energy for propulsion. Mrs. Eisenhower, the first presidential wife to christen a submarine, stood on a special platform. As she smashed a bottle of chant: pagne—which officials took pains to point out was an American vintage—she said the traditional words, “I christen thee, USS Nautilus.” A workman stood by with a reserve bottle, in case the First Lady missed. As the wine foamed on the snub-nosed bow, another workman pulled a "trigger," which released a steel bar holding the craft on the ways. The launching cradle slid on special low-temperature grease into the Thames River, after , which it was brought into its wet dock by tugs. ■Speakers hailed the sub, plAns for which were started six years ago. as a vast stride forward Tor mankind. Adm. Robert B. Carney, chief of naval operations, said "The Naiitllus is 8 symbol of United States determination to fight, when and if * fighting becomes necessary.” “But her revolutionary power plant also symbolises our country's desire to use science for good in this era of fantistic change,” he said. Carney added that the 300-foot craft, believed caphbie of girdling the globe in 29 days without resurfacing. is—vital because there is a “possibility of serious depletion in other fuel sources.” Allen County Agent Resigns Position Clarence R.
