HAVANA, October 3—Prof. Georges Olaude yesterday started up for the first time the turbines in his laboratory for the production of cheap industrial wer from the waters of the Guif ln . telemm to the Msuchted Press he pronounced the results * ‘satisfactory for a first experiment.” At 4,000 revolutions per minute the turbines generated 10 kilowatts of paver However, more than the amount of power produced had been used in ting the machinery under way. The turbines were started at 4 o’clock in the afternoon at the laboratory of the French scientist on Matanzas Bay, where he has been quietly working on | his experiment. He hopes to utilize the thermal differences between surface and deep water of the Gulf. His huge turbines actually turned under the impulse of steam created by exposing surface water to a vacuum, which Prof. Claude, dflplh i-h' em- trary belief of many maintained they would do ‘The plant he has been using was built with the idea rather of assem- bling important data than of luc- ing a surplus of power. From first the French scientist has admitted that wn.h his present equipment he vnuld use more power than he could p: Pml Claude said that no nmxmpt ad been made to make practical use o( the energy he had developed ouser than to make his turbines operate. Within a few days he expects to call in a group of engineers and scientists to witness his work.
