Experience Derived by Nav

i Salvage is Material Bene

(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. S. S. Favorite
