m iliar with this type o f cra ft are con
fldent that the underw ater boats o f 110
other naUon are built on stronger lines.
In fact, naval officers say that none o f
tiie great w orld powers requires the
construction o f submarines to resist
anything like the great w ater pressure
that la required o f Am erican suhma
rlnes.
Submarines built fo r the Am erican
navy must have hull strength aufflclent
to resist the pressure o f the ocean at
a depth o f 300 feet. B efore these dell
cate c ra ft are accepted they m ust have
withstood pressure at a depth around
210 feet, which Is deemed sufficient,
hut must be strong enough to go much
lower.
British and Germ an suhma
rlnes are not required to stand pressure
at 300 feet, the requirem ent usually
running around 200 feet. German sub­
marines, ns a rule, are tested at a depth
around 150 fe et and those o f the B rit­
ish navy sometimes at. a greater depth.
O f all submarine defects those a f ­
fectin g the propelling engines have
been most numerous and bothersome.
T h e developm ent o f this t r y * o f en ­
gine has been v e ry gradual.

very recently, however, engine trouble
has been o f common occurrence in sub­
marines. and the w ork o f construction
has been delayed m ore by engine tie
fects probably than from all other de
fecta combined.
