If Saturday, January 20, 1923 VI u HELPS NAVY THE LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER PAGE THREE Experience Derived by Nav i al Forces from Wartime i Salvage is Material Bene ' fit. (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Jan. 20-One of the 'interesting developments in th t United States navy as the result of wartime experience was the build in of a salvage service, designed to aid . in the saving of wrecked ships and, the recovery of cargoes and val uable: ship's gear. When the coun try entered the World war the navy possessed' no regular salvage se-. vice, although collections of salvag ing 'machinery had been made at sev eral depots, and apparatus had been brought to a high degree of effi ciency. But this was used mostly in ponr.ection with experimental work in fjrlnjr at various targets simulat ing vesfiels. However, when the gathering of United States vessels, large and small, in European harbors result ed ill many incidental minor acci dents, and the operations of enemy submarines called for equipment to save costly boats and their cargoes, the navy was quick to build up a service which not only soon repaid the cost of organization, but has since resulted in great savings. The first step the navy took wu the establishment ot a salvage sec tion of the Bureau of Construction and Repair, drawing personnel and equipment from private salvaging companies. Salvage stations were established along the Atlantic coast by the taking over of many private conceits, and by August, 1117, a salvage unit had arrived in France This consisted of the navy's first salvage vessel, the U.
