DUE'S EFFECT 1
SEA FLOOR PUZZLE
WASHINGTON. (AP) Ex
actly what happened to the bot
tom of the ocean sout hot New
foundland when an earthquake
snapped 12 submarine cables In
November has become a source of
sea-faring wonder and worry.
No one knows yet but many
sea captains, coming in from voy
ages, assert it is impossible to
take accurate soundings; that the
entire region will have to be
charted again,, as apparently the
ocean floor has been remade.
The United States Coast and
Geodetie survey has received
queries regarding the possible
changes in depth of the ocean in
the widely traveled shin lanes:
but MaJ. William Bowie, chief of
me geoaesy division of the de
partment, is inclined to believe
that there has been no material
shifting.
He believes that soon the navy
of some country will send a sub
marine equipped with a gratify
apparatus with the object of seek
ing light as to the cause of the
earthquake. Since these ate In
ternational waters, any country
has the right to make investiga
tions.
Reports of ship captains, in his
opinion, give Inconclusive testi
mony as to Ua extent of the
changes because of the unavoid
able errors in determining the
position of a ship at sea.
As this affected section has a
broad submarine trough, with
wide variations in depth in short
distances, a small error made by
the navigator in his location
would give soundings different
from those shown on the chart

; Fish feed more and consequent

according to Mr. Ryckman. At
the Oak Springs hatchery fish
grow larger than in any other

warm springs that feed into the

why BUICK out

Keep inroiad, when you buy your cor,
that you are buying miles and that
you wttt get more and better miles in
a Buick, as mora than ,400,000
owners have proved.
Buick builds so thoroughly --builds
such extra strength and stamina into
the Buick Valve-in-Head engine and
sealed chassis that many Bucks, foe
ten or fifteen years of age, are still In
service . . . and the speedometers of
many of these cars register 100,000
miles and more. j
You reap the full benefit of BuickV
extra mileage whether you drive your
Buick 10,000 50,000 or 100,000
miles. You enjoy finer, more faithful
performance, day after day and mile
after mile. You obtain greater motoring
satisfaction all the way through
greater power, greater stamina,
greater value.
Buick is built to out-perform. This,
together with the beauty and comfort
of Buick's Bodies by Fisher, explains
whyAmerico is driving 700,000 more
Buicks than any other car in Buick's
price class . . and why Buick today
wins from two to five times as many
buyers as any other car priced above
$1200.
