MATANSAS, Cuba, June 16.— The visionary plan of a French scientist of harnessing the Gulf Stream and con- verting its warmth into energy suffi- clent to turn the wheels of industry yesterday was declared nearing the stage of a practical demonstration. After years of costly experiments, Prof. George Claude said he has com- gleud a tube 1,700 yards long which e soon will lower into the sea to serve as a pipe line from the Gulf Stream to & power plant he has erected at his laboratory along the Gulf shore here. His theory is that the Gulf Stream waters, being subjected to vacuum, will rise to the boiling point and produce steam sufficlent to turn great turbines for generating electric power, The tube will rest in a channel on the bottom of the sea. A year ago hu submerged a tube of smaller propor- tions and lesser strength, but it was rendered unserviceable by strong under currents. Elaborate repnrnlum for sinking the new tube been made, including the building P rallway track 11, miles long over the water. The laboratory where Prof. Claude has been conducting his experiments covers nearly an acre. At the rear of the main building he had constructed enormous naves, where the mechanical work is being done. He declared the pmm-_ MRS.
