SUB 54 70 TEST DEVICES N SOUND Five Salety Measures Will Be Tried O New London YWashington, May 20.—(UP)—The submarine S-4, tomb of 40 officers and men in one of the worst naval disasters in peace-time history, will be taken to New London, Conn., next month to test the practicability of five safety devices recently recom- mended by the naval board of sub- marine safety and salvage, it was learned today. Aboard her will be Licut. C. B. ‘Momsen, recently gwarded the dis- tinguished service medal for de- veloping the “lung” device to enable men to breathe while rising from a sunken submersible. And Lieut. Commander T. H. Dunbar, naval submarine expert. An empty hulk, save for: light motors to operate her descending and ascending machinery, the ship will serve as a laboratory for practi- cal sea tests of the “lung,” marker buoy, “Pad eye” for attaching chains to submerged submarines, and .es- cape chamber, and manholes. These devices were recommended for test by a board of submarine experts ap- pointed after the 8-4 sank in Decem- ber 1927 when she was rammed by the coast guard destroyer Paulding. Momsen and Dunbar expect to re- port for work June 15 and to have tests underway by July 1, it was learned today. 5 Successful experiments with the “lung” device already have been made at depths down to 200 feet. The next tests will be directed to- wards it use 100 feet lower. The navy now has one class of sub- marines, the V-type, capable of going that deep.

Without another she had been unable to put in & second call and was compelled to rush back to her desk and use the private tele- phone, which meant a loss of sev- eral minutes. The other girl regarded her in amazement as she rushed acroms the room like a whirlwind and grabbed up the instrument in shak- ing hands. She fairly begged the operator for her number and it seemed to her ages before she got it. “Send someone up to Miss Jud- son's room, quick!” ashe acreamed when the hotel answered. “Huck Connor's there!" The operator waited for no more, Mildred had scarcely ceased speak- ing before she was plugging in for a oconnection with the manager's office. “Trouble in Miss Judson's rooms,” she reported. “An outside call just came in that Huck Connor is there.” The operator had no idea what Huck's presence in Pamela's suite meant, but she knew what was ex- pected of her and she did it. Mr. Dazel gave swift, brief orders. In two minutes he, with the men Inspector Markeson had placed in the hotel, were being borne with record speed up to the 18th floor. Others were guarding the exits, but it was too late. Huck had slipped out with Pamela. His bold coup was a success. Mr. Dazel was just leaving Pa- mela's rooms, wondering if someone had perpetrated a hoax on them, when he and the detectives were joined by Mr. Judson. “Pamela was here,” her father declared. “I saw her come in from shopping.” “Wait,”” Mr. Dazel replied and hurried toward the floor clerk’s desk. Mr, Judson followed and his face blanched to a parchment hue when he heard that Pamela had left her rooms just a minute before with a stranger. As one man they made for the clevator that waited with open door. One of the doormen came running up to them when they stepped out into the lobby. He'd seen Pamela get into a private car with Connor but he hadn't thought anything of it un- til a detective had questioned him. Which way had they gone? East. Had he taken the number of the car? No. Mr. Judson groaned. “Maybe Halley's following.,” one of the dgtectives remarked. “He don’t kndw Connor but he might have got wise somethin' was wrong. He ain't around.” Mr. Dazel took Mr. Judson by the arm. *“We must Inform In- spector Markeson,” he said and turned to re-enter the hotel. They soon had what cowfort they could get trom the inspector's assuiance that every avenue of escape from the city would be cov- ered. Mr. Judson sent word to Stephen, who was waiting in the dining room for Pamela, to come to his office. There he told what had happened. “Can't we do something?" Ste- phen cried against the helplessness that held them. But there was nothing they could do except wait. Their suspense was not long, however, not more than a matter of minutes. A call came in from the Grand Central Station. It was from Hailey. Unknown to Pamela, he had been put to guard her whenever she left the hotel. Even Mr. Judson did not know this. It was Inspector Marke- son’s experience that young ladies rebelled against surveillance and he knew Mr. Judson to be indulgent where Pamela was concerned. Halley reported that Miss Judson was at the station, waiting for a train. He said there was something peculiar about it and wanted to know if it was all right, It's a kidnaping.” he was fold. rest her companion, hut for God's sake, be careful. It's Connor.” “Send some men,” Halley wisely requested. Mr. Judson and Stephen insisted upon going. A policeman rode on the running board of their car and cleared the traffic for them. “He's got a gun on her,” Halley told them when they reached the station. “One of you men get on that train and take him as soon as he gets aboard. He'H be off his guard for a minute or two,” the detective in command ordered. “Stay back, How Weak Nervous Women Grow Stronger Foel Better, LookYounger and Have Steadier Nerves If you only kaew — you rundown, anemic women — who are draggi around on your “serve’ — what a wonderful increase in strength and health Tanlac will give you, you wouldn’t hesitate a moment about ing to your di d getting & ig bottle of this l:.m:im-:f Mnlhnlbbfllui,dfldlh’h Mass., R.F.D. 1, Box 17, says: 'l hat no stion nor 8| ite.

So confident are the makers of Tan- lac that if you are not helped by it, you get your money back on request. Tanlac Mr. Judsan, tage.” Mr. Judson understood Pamela's danger and did as he was told, hold- ing Stephen by the arm. Huck was congratulating himself upon his success. He figured he'd got the breaks. The doorman, though he recognized him, hadn't been suspicious. It was a hundred to one shot that nothing had been heard over -the telephone except his name, perhaps. He believed that wouldn't mean anything to the ma- jority of Pumela’s acquaintances. But he was glad, nevertheless, as he led Pamela through the gate, that he'd arranged to have Ras meet him at Harmon. They'd be there in a few minutes. And then —let Judson find them! He couldn't drag Pamela back from the Pober- lins’ without a scandal. Pamela stepped up to the train and you, too, Armi- plaiform ahead of him. In the vestibule a man lJurched forward and got hetween them, catching Huck unprepared. Before he could Virust his hand back into his pocket the other man stuck a gun in his stomach and ordered him to “throw ‘em up.” ’ Without a sound Pamela slipped to the floor, When she revived Huck was gone. She clung to her father in a parox- ysm of weeping. He was thankful that she turned to him and not to Stephen. Stephen had confided to him that he hadn’t yet had the talk with her that both knew he must have. It made it easier for him, and for Steplien, too, to see that her father see nad dearer to her. Stephen was distressingly con- scious of the interview he’d had with Mr. Judson following the lat- ter's visit to Mildred that morning. Distressed—and strangely happy. They took Pamela home, a ner- vous wreck, an1 Mrs. Judson put her to hed. Mr. Judson went to the switch- board operator and learned that it was Mildred who had sent in the warning. *“She’s been telephoning every five minutes since,” the girl stated. “Call Garland and Grace, Mr, Garland's office, and ask Miss Law- rence to come here,” Mr. Judson di- rected. “Tell her to come to my office.” Mildred came as quickly as a taxicab could bring her. She was deathly pale and trembling. What had happened? Stephen—she had a vague idea that he might have had an engqunter with Huck. And Huck was a Killer! Her breath was coming in short, painful gasps when she opened the door to Mr. Judson's office. Stephen! She barely suppressed the glad cry that sprang to her lips when she saw him there. *“Mildred!" He was coming toward her. And he had never looked at her like that before. 8he thought he was going to take her in his arms, and grew confused. He was Pamela's—the man Pa- mela was going to marry. Stephen saw her shrink from him and haited. He reminded him- self, with great fear, that he had yet to hear from her own lips what Mr. Judson had told him. “Where is Mr. Judson?” Mildred cried, her eyes wildly searching the room. “He's left us alone,” Stephen said quietly; “so that I may tell you I love you, Mildred.” His voice was humble, beseeching, but there was an eager intensity behind it that told Mildred he was holding himself in leash. 8he stared at him, unable to say a word. “I've been an awful fool,” he said suddenly, “and Mr. Judson found it out. He asked me just one simple question, Mildred, and that settled everything.” He paused, and Mildred waited, her heart pounding like mad. “Please, sit me tell you all urged, but her. Mildred down here and let about it,” Stephen not daring to go nearer moved over and | weakly into a chair. | “What did he ask you?" She |simply couldn't keep the question back, though her feminine instinct prompted her not to make it too easy for him. Stephen looked at her and she suddenly wanted to laugh joyously at his small boy air of guilt. “He said to me’ Stephen said, coming closer; “he said to me: ‘Young man, do you love Mildred Lawrence?’ And before I knew it T had said yes. So you see, that's the way it was all the time, only I was a fool.” “Oh.” It was a very little word, but Stephen found encouragement in it. “I know that's only half of it,” he weat on. “There's you. I might not be a foo! any longer, but what good will that do unless T have you? Mildred, you aren't going to spoil it now! Don’t you love me?” Mildred smiled — the smile that comes but ence. “Love you?” she murmured soft- ly ard thought whimsically that it must amuse the angels to hear him sank ask. But Mildred was no angel. *1 don’t know,” she said hesitantly. Stephen swallowed hard. *“Maybe you could find out it I kissed you,” Re told her. Mildred’s eyes grew “Well?"” she whispered. Stephen shook his head. “You'll have to ask me,” he said. “Remem- ber” I kissed you once and prom- ived never to do it again untit you asked me.” Mildred put a hand quickly to her lips — and then reached it up to Stephen. The other one, too. He drew her out of the chair, close to him. “Bay it,” he said. very soft. Mildred lifted her face. “Stephen, I love you.” Stephen didn't He kissed her. He kissed her so many times that Mr. Judson had to come in and put a stop to it. “Pamela?” Mildred asked volumes in the ane word. need - any more, ting to give you that traveling bag herself,” Mr. Judson answered.

Mildred laid a comforting hand on his arm. Mil- one thing I must warn you about," he said; “you must take a peace of fering to that loyal sister of yours.
