OCTOBER " 1928, STISANSTOAY - T0 MAP SEA FLOOR Dr. Meinesz, Dutch Scientist, Begins Two Months’ Trip on U. S. Boat. The submarine U. S. S. §-21 is sail- ing this afternoon from the Washing- | |ton Navy Yard, bearing the famous | Dutch scientist, Dr. F. A. Vening leinesz, on the first lap of an expedi- on to study the contour of the ocean floor. In this work will be utilized the doctor’s famous pendulum apparatus, which involves mirrors and photo- graphic recording, and two Eagle boats, the Nos. 35 and 58, will be part of the expedition, and these will join the S-21 {at Hampton Roads. The two months’ expedition will take the noted scientist to Key West and Galveston via the Sigsbee Deep, Guan- |tanamo via Cape Maysi, St. Thomas | via the Nares Deep, the southern part {of Porto Rico and back to Hampton Roads on November 30. Lieut. James L. Fisher is in command of the U. § S. s-21. In his studies for determining the force of gravity in those arcas, Di Meinesz will have the aid of Dr. Fre erick E. Wright of the Carnegie Insti- tution of Washington and Principal Scientist Elmer B. Collins of the Naval Hydrographic Office. The submarine will enable them to have a steady float- ing laboratory when it submerges. Yesterday afternoon Secretary Wilbur, accompanied, by Admiral Charles F. Hughes, chief of naval operations, and | Rear Admiral Richard H. Leigh, chief lof the Burcau of Navigation, went aboard the U. S. S. 5-21 and was shown the special apparatus by Dr. Meinesz. Has Three Pendulums. Dr. Meinesz, who is professor of | geodesy at the University of Utrecht, speaks English and has traveled ex- tensively. His latest apparatus contains | three pendulums, and the present ex- pedition will enable him to pursue fur- ther his quest of knowing more about the earth’s crust, not only in a general | way but in a detailed one. The expedition has been placed by Secretary Wilbur under the auspices of | the Naval Observatory, and Dr. Meinesz will study particularly the great ocean troughs, such as the Nares Dezp, which lies just north of and parallel to the island of Porto Rico, and the Bartlett Deep, which runs southwestward from the eastern end of Cuba, and the Sigs- | bee Deep, in the center of the Gulf of Mexico. Observations will be made just off the Mississippi Delta, which should test the equilibrium of the crust under that area and indicate whether the great load of sediments deposited by ths Mis- sissippi River is held up by the strength of the earth’s crust or whether it weighs down and depresses the crust to restore the equilibrium, Capt. Charles S. Freeman, superinterident of the | Naval Observatory, explains. West Indies Thought Young. “It is expected that the weighing of the imaginary earth blocks during the voyage of the S-21 will throw much light on the conditions existing under the Caribbean Sea, the Guli of Mexico and the waters off the southeast At- { lantic Coast,” said Capt. Freeman. | “The region to be traversed is one | of the most interesting of the earth |from a geophysical . and geological standpoint. It is belicved that the islands of the West Indies are com- aratively young, geologically speaking. hs ocean waters surged over the | places now occupied by thoss islands in | not distant past. What caused thess | uplifts of the islands and what caused the great ocean deeps that lie among them? These are problems on which we have been able to speculate only, for we have not had the necessary fundamental data on which to build theories and to give logical explana- tions.” Capt. Freeman explained that it is the hope of scientists that in the n2:t de ade or two the geologists and geo- physicists will have ample gravity data for studying the vast ocean areas and learning the secrets of the crust be- neath them. —_——— CIVIL SERVICE JOBS OPEN.
