Another step toward facilitating sub- marine rescue operations has been taken, the Navy Department announced yesterday officially, in revealing that a system for two-way voice communica- | tion between a surface vessel and an | of which were conducted at the Wash- ington Navy Yard, in conjunction with the diving school, some in laboratories and some at New London, Conn. | This announcement said that all the | apparatus is on the surface vessel, | nothing being required on the subma- | rine, the hull of which acts as a dia- | phragm and sound conductor to the | reproducer on the surface. Following | service tests, the apparatus has been | pronounced satisfactory and after some minor improvements have been made, | the device will be installed on all sub- | marine rescue vessels and, as funds per- | mit, also on submarine tenders, the de- | partment said. System Is Developed. [ In making this announcement, the | department’s official statement said: “A system for two-way voice com- munication between personnel on a sur- | face vessel and persons entrapped in a | submarine resting on the sea bottom has been developed by sound personnel employed by the Navy. “It is somewhat similar to speech am- | plification outfits used in auditoriums, except that the sound producer is much | | more rugged and is designed to work | against hydrostatic instead of atmos- | pheric perssure. It is water tight and | |is built to withstand rough handling | incident to lowering it to a submarine and is provided with an electro-magnet to hold it against the hull of the sub- marine. | Found Satisfactory. “It has been tested under service con- ditions and found to be quite satisfac- tory. After a few minor'improvements have been incorporated the device is to be installed on ail submarine rescue vessels and, as funds permit, also on submarine tenders. “The operation is simple. All the necessary equipment, including motor | teries and cable, are carried on the sur- | face ship; nothing is required on the submarine. The hull of the submarine acts as a diaphragm and sound con- ductor to the reproducer. A simple switching device on the surface vessel as a transmitter of sound from the sur- face vessel or a receiver of sound from the submarine. Good modulation was obtained; different voices could be recognized.” WIDOW’S DECLARATION | INVALIDATED BY COURT Disclaimer in Will of Inherited | Bequests From Husband Held Not Legal. The District Court of Appeals, in an opinion by Chief Justice Martin, yester- day held that th eoral declaration of a widow and the probating of her will within the period of six months after administration was granted on her hus- band’s estate do not amount in law to renunciation of bequests made to her under the will. Such renunciation must be in writing and be filed by the widow in the Probate Court in terms substan- tially complying with the statute, it was ruled. | The question arose in the adminis- tration of the estate of Samuel G. Eberly and dealt with bequests to his | widow, Amelia Eberly, who died within | six months of her husband. She had filed no written renunciation, but de- clared in her will her intention to take her dower right in preference to the bequests. {MRS.
