The latest battleships of the United States Navy have included in their construction an automotive system of torpedo firing, invented by young Hammond. Later ships will have a radio system by which not only torpedoes, but other ships, could be controlled. This also is a product of the Inventive brain of the junior Hammond. Designs Adopted During the World War the allied armies used incendiary projectiles—invented by Hammond, Jr. Most of the coast states have adopted a system of coastal patrol airplanes—devised by Hammond, Jr. The Bartlett expedition for polar exploration decided on a method of aer.al coast surveying—designed by Hammond, Jr. In the radio field, young Hammond is one of the leaders.

Indiana, in the Senate debate on the McCumber bill. “I think a direct tax should be provided,” New' declared. “I would vote for a sales tax, but I don’t think It would prevail. Nevertheless I believe that is the only fair and honest way for the Senate to approach the situation. “I shall also vote for the Bursum amendment as I think it is vast improvement over the McCumber bill. “I voted against the Simmons amendment providing that the interest on the foreign debt should be utilized for the payment of this bonus because the act providing for the second Liberty Loan explicitly stated that repayment of the foreign debt should be used for the extinguishment of these bonds.” PUTS GUN IN CAKE Convict’s Sweetheart Seeks J Lover to Escape Prison.
