In the company are Johnny Pieters. 32, an electrician an I designer of the equipment; George Martens, real estate operator, and Fred Free, cafe owner, all of Chilliwack, B. C.

beam headlights, of the same power found in the ordinary automobile, bracketed to the outside of the bell. Voltage is supplied from two auto batteries.
Two-way phone communica tioi is maintained at all times. A safety measure incorporated
by Pieters is a stand holding two ox yK f, n tanks and chemical tank to burn up carbon dioxide, doing away with possible air line foul-
ing by the ship’s rigging.

quarter inch cable to a smaller <• e which will absorb the punishing pulls from the surface. Tightening of the cable around the ship will cause the'block to act solidly against the bottom of the craft, forcing the lift and acting as a ship's keel. In 50-foot pulls, two days is the estimated time for hauling the ship to the surface. It is planned to move the craft as close as possible to the shore and then to make the last short

outer reaches of the earth's at • hosphere have been brought to light as result of studies conducted by The HAND Corporation, a non-profit organization of scientists doing research for gov-
ernment agencies.
Until 1040, the p.operties of the atmosphere were well known up to altitudes of approximately 11 miles (60,000 feet.) The RAND study encomprasses noi mly the higher realms of the atmosphere but even the areas just beyond, where it has been ascertained that an extremely rarefied hydrogen gas exists at th; tremendously high temperature
of 18.000 degrees F.
The study has revealed, moreover, that above an altitude of 50 miles, where the temperature is quite low minus 50 degrees F. the atmosphere rapidly begins to grow hotter, reaching a I level of 4,000 degrees at a poin. , I ibout 400 miles above the enith.^
Beyond that it remains uniform I to'.ds a distance of 10 000 t.> to its outer edges. | 15,000 miles outside the earth

Knowledge that these high | ly estimated,
temperatures exist is extremely |
important, inasmuch as it indi-I T1: "' RAND analysis has be-n cates that the atmosphere ex- carried out for the upper atmos-
phere above the earth at the equator and the middle latitudes, hut not above the polar regions;. | The cost of the Alaska Highway, built in World War II. was $138,000,000.
