President Avers Science Will Aid Working Man New York, Oct, in America has entered an era wherein drudgery soon will end and workers will receive constantly increasing compensation, declares Walter 8S. Gifford, president of the American Telephone and Tele- graph Company, in an interview appearing in the current number of The American Magazine, Business is no longer a struggle of one firm against another, he adds, but has developed into ob- taining a greater knowledge of nat- ure by which costs are reduced, labor saving devices made possible and men and women permitted to means grealer opportunity both material ,and money, "The eight hour day has hecome almost a standard and there is talk of the five-day week," says Gif- ford. "We are healthier and richer than ever before, Yet it is my be- lief that we have just started. Ma- chinery will increasingly take the load off of men's shoulders in fac- tories, Every one of us will have more chance to do what he will, which means greater "opportunity both materially and spiritually." Gifford declared that mew busi- ness methods, specially the new practice of conducting ceaseless re- search, has effected a saving of $650,000,000 in the Bell telephone system alone and that telephone us- ers are saved $100,000,000 a year that they would have had to pay if the antiquated methods still pre- vailed, "The masses," he continued "will profit more than the wealthy, If a man has an income of $50,000 to $100,000 a year he is not going to be affected appreciably by what he has to spend for living necessit- ies but the man who has an income of $150 a month is going to be vite ally affected. If we can reduce his budget by as little as five or ten dollars a month, we will have given him worthwhile assistance, *' GENERAL MUNRO IS ON RETIRED LIST Became Famous During World War--Later Gov- ernor of Gibraltar London, Oct, 23,--The retire- ment on retired pay of General Sir Charles C, Monro, on reaching the age limit of 68, is announced in the "Gazette", General Monro became famous during the great war in connection with the safe withdrawn! of the British troops from Gallipoli, He advised and superintended the evacuation, Subsequently Sir Charles (who was created a bar- onet in 1921) commanded the First Army in France, and from 1916 to 1920 he was Commander-in- Chief in India. In 1923 he was appointed Governor of Gibraltar, his term of office expiring in August, 21}.--Business SUBMARINE RESCUE APPARATUS IS NOW BEING PERFECTED New Device Called a "Lung" Will Bring Man to Top of Water Baltimore, Md., Oct. 23. -- Stirred by undersea craft disasters that have taken the lives of scores of Ameri- can officers and men, the navy is making strenuous efforts to elimin- ate the hazards of submarines by de- vising and perfecting rescue appara- tus. Many experiments are being made and plans carried out for exhaustive tests to learn what happens when a submarine is stricken below surface. No man has survived a submarine accident wherein the craft was to- tally disabled and flooded while un- der water, and none has been able to tell just what occurs under those conditions. In addition to laboratory experi- ments, the hulk of the submarine S-4, which took 40 men to their deaths after she was rammed by the Coast Guard destroyer Paulding off Provincetown, Mass, December 17, 1927, will be used in rigorous tests oft Cape Charles, Va.,, in October. These tests are to be conducted by Lieut, C. B, Momsen, submarine ex- pert and diver. ! Attempts will be made to learn conditions that exist during: the wrecking of undersea craft and de- vise methods of counteracting and preventing them. Naval divers will be placed beside the hulk, which will be sunk and flooded, They will then escape through hatches and come to the surface by using the navy's new breathing device, "the lung," and other rescue apparatus de- veloped during the last few months, "The lung," invented by Lieuten- ant Momsen, Chief Gunner C, L. Tib- bals, the navy's foremost diving au- thority, and F. M, Hobson, an en- gineer in the bureau of construction and repair, has been tested in deep sea diving and worked satisfactorily. In both depth and duration tests the simple device, resembling a gas mask and consisting of a rubber oxygen container, a mouth-piece for breath- ing and nose pinchers, proved itself capable of bringing a man from a depth of nearly 160 feet. It has a capacity that will permit a man to stay under water 11 minutes. Lieutenant Momsen plans to de- scend 225 feet in the S-4 hulk off the Atlantic coast in a running sea un- der the most unfavorable conditions and use the device in making his ascent. If "the lung" continues its success in the tests, the navy proposes to adopt it as standard equipment on all its 78 submarines, All the American submarines have three escape hatches, most of which are fitted with trunks which project into the interior, so that when they are flooded the compartments be- come similar to diving bells. When a submarine is down and unable to rise the entrapped men will take their "lungs" from lockers near the hatches and fill them with oxygen. One man will release the hatch and another will open a sea connection to flood the chamber. When enough water has entered to equalize the pressiire on the inside with the sea pressure, the hatch will be opened The WINNING | WEIGH "MALLETT'S COAL SERVICE | Phone 2560 rac satisnes HIGH GRADE EQUIP: MENT KEPT IN PER FECT CONDITION, MEANS RELIABLE SERVICE Phone 82 ST\A OR (010)°37 (0), A ¢ USE WAKEFIELD (ASTROL MOTOR OIL Rngmaicully by the air pocketed t. A small cork buoy, capable of sus taining a man, will be released to carry a knotted line to the surface, The men, standing in water nearly up to their shoulders and breathing air from the pocket in the overhead, will place the "lungs" to their mouths and, one after another, duck into the trunk, grasp the line and slowly, to avoid the "bends," make their way to the surface. They will be able to determine whether they are rising too fast by the swelling of the oxy- 8 en bags. Naval authorities consider "the lung" the most practical device ever invented for submarine rescue work, They plan to continue to study other proposals, however, and Lieutenant Momsen has been ordered to conduct experiments with a number of de- vices, TRACE GENEALOGY OF "DAVY" CROCKETT Chattanooga, Tenn., Obt. 23.-- Through records of the past 700 years two Tennessee women have traced the genealogy of Davy Croc- kett, hero of Tennessee and Texas pioneering days. The genealogy, recently published here by Miss Zella Armstrong and Mrs. J. Stewart French, goes back to the earliest mention of the Croe- kett family in Normandy in 1180 and traces the line down to recent years, Mrs, French is a descendant of the Crockett family, and Miss Armstrong took up the work as a hobby, They found Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) among the descend- ants of the same ancestry, The Crockett history explains how the Tennessee mountaineer came by his characteristic trait, Crockett believed in being right. On his rifle now in the state museum at Little Rock, Ark. is his famous motto: "Remember this when I am TELEPHONE 4 Direct Lines to Cental 262 The DIXON COAL CO.

QUALITY, SERVICE ASSURED dead, be sure you're right, then go ahead." The genealogy shows one of the coats-of-arms of a Scottish branch of the Crocketts bore the motto: "Tak' Tent"--"Take Care." Crockett once declined an invita- tion to visit Harvard University, saying, "I can take no chances on an LL.D." At the time he was be- ing mentioned for the presidency, and, while it was not established that the university had decided to confer a degree upon him, he said the mountaineers in Tennessee might think "LL.D." meant "Lazy, Loung- ing Dunce." The genealogists acknowledge aid in their work to numerous descend- ant families in Virginia and other states as well as Scotland. field particularly effective.
