THE EVEXNING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, WEDXNESDAY, DECEMBER 5, - 1934, MODEL SHIP BASIN | HELD VITAL NEED Admiral Land Points Out Plans Long Ready, but Funds Lacking. The urgent need for a model ship- testing basin to permit research in| marine problems was stressed yester- day in the annual report of Rear Admiral Emory Scott Land, chief of the Navy Burcau of Construction and | Repair. He pointed out that plans and specifications for this have long been ready, but the Navy lacks funds for constructing an up-to-date model basin. Lacking this the service, as well as the American merchant marine, is forced to use the obsolete basin that has long done duty at the Washington Navy Yard. The United States Engineer office ‘has collaborated with the Navy in sug- gesting a suitable site near Washing- | ton for the projected basin. The Na- tional Capital Park and Planning Commission recommended that this be erccted near Conduit road, mot far from the Cabin John Bridge in Mary- | land, where suitable rock foundationst were established the engineers. Al site at Fort Myer, Va., was also under | consideration. Behind Other Nations. Emphasizing the need for the basin, Admiral Land said &z a single up-to-date experi- model basin exists in this country today which respect other maritime nations have outstripped us. While the work being conducted at the present basin has been gratifying along certain lines, it is fely that the engineers and naval architects of this country are handicapped in the in- vestigation of the complex problems that arise in the effort to improve efficiency of our vessels. “It is hoped that this vital need of th Navy Department and of the coun- try as a whole will be met by the allocation of funds to permit prompt undertaking of the construction of a new model basin. the plans and speci- fications for which have long been ready Forty-six Warshpis Under Way.
