Underwater
breathing
brings
research
Surgical masks are stan
dard costumes in operating
rooms. But scuba gear may
be the next cycle.
A t Indiana U niversity Hos
pital in Indianapolis, operat
ing room personnel wear sur
gical masks connected to
respiratory
systems
that
function like scuba masks.
A ir is supplied, while exhaled
carbon dioxide is directed
away from the operating
area.
A gentle breeze of
sterile a ir is blown constantly
over the patient.
In
the real underwater
w orld, a scuba diver straps
to his body the equipment
that supplies his a ir and re
moves the carbon dioxide he
exhales. The a ir he breathes,
underwaters as well as out
of the water, is one-fifth
oxygen and four-fifths n itro
gen.
But nitrogen becomes
narcotic to divers after a
depth of about 40 yards. At
deeper levels, divers have to
carry expensive helium in
stead of nitrogen.
Scientists are looking for
ways
to
increase man’ s
a bility to breathe underwater
without masks. A t the Uni
versity
of M arseilles in
France, D r. Jacques Chou
teau kept two goats alive fo r
a fu ll day in a pressure
chamber simulating condi
tions 300 yards underwater.
The unusual aspect of the
experiment was that a cylind
e r filled with a gas called
potassium superoxide kept
reconverting just the right
amount of oxygen in the
chamber. The goats, inci
dentally, thrived on th e ird a ily
ration of one cigarette, which
they atewithobviouspleasure.
One day mancan live under
the sea if he can figure out
how to breathe just the right
combination of gases.
In the meantime, to find out
more about the many pro
blems of breathing above
water, contact your local
tuberculosis and respiratory
disease association. It really
is a m atter of life and breath.

It’s Your Navy
J e rry F. is concerned about
th e environment and asks:
“ What is the Navy doing about
pollution control?” Since the
Navy is also concerned it has
passed the ecology "b u ck” to
the Navy C iv il Engineering
Laboratory (NCEL) here and it
w ill pass no further.
The buck, in this case, is a
m ajor responsibility in the
Navy’ s a ll-o u t war against en
vironmental pollution of all
kinds, a battle that NCEL en
tered on a large scale when it
was named deputy manager of
the Navywide Environmental
Protection Data Base P r o
gram .
In later years, when some
one asks “ W hat did you do in
the w a r against pollution.
Navy?” , NCEL w ill be able to
reply with this impressive lis t
of accomplishments:
• Set up an entire Depart
ment, su ite d by outstanding
specialists in tie field of envi
ronmental pollution.
• set up pilot test programs
to study all form s of pollution
at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, and
at the North Island Naval A ir
Station, San Diego.
• Trained and equipped spe
cia l teams to investigate pol
lution problems at N aial in
stallations across the country.
• Gathered data on smoke
stack emissions, noise levels,
ground water pollution, con
tamination by p e s t i c i d e s ,
leaking from solid wastes.
• Developed both hardware
and techniques fo r control of
pollution of various kinds, in
cluding oil spills.
• E stab!ished a data base fo r
rapid dissemination of pollu
tion information throughout
the Navy.
Every known source of envi
ronmental contamination is
being studied by highly quali
fied people, and the inform a
tion developed by these in
vestigations w ill be analyzed
and evaluated for use in fo l
low-up control actions. More
immediately ships are now
required to pump bilge water
Into waste barges fo r treat
ment before it is released into
the environment, it is convert
ing its ships to d is tilla te fuel
(diesel) which burns cleaner
than black o il, and is installing
sewage treatment plants in its
new ships as they are built.
I hope this answers your
question. If you have any oth

Welcome
to 1 he Arms
Green. This is the fir s t in a
series of weekly columns
aimed at telling you a little
more about today's modern
•Army, ami about some of the
local residents in service.
F irs t off, I would like to ex
tern! an invitation to all of you
to dro,' in ami see me any
time you are in downtown
Portland.
I am located at
321 S. W . Salmon (Georgia-
P acific Annex). Also, feel
iree to call anytime at 221-

The A rm y’ s I'ank-Automo-
tive Command has announce!
the Jevelojxnent of an engine
that not only controls pollu
tion but also reduces fuel
costs by as much as AU per
cent. Called the H ybrid, the
new engine uses a fuel injec
tion system like that used
on diesel engines. A rm y engi
neers say that the injection
system is vastly more e ffi
cient that a carburetor since
it injects precisely the amount
of fuel needed at any given
horsepower. It’ s ju st another
example of how the Army
works with industry to cut
operating expenses, and an
pollution.
