REVEAL ROCKET
GUNS DEVELOPED
IN CALIFORNIA
Pasadena, Cal., Aug. 5 U.B
Eocket weapons that helped to
curb the submarine menace and
sided Allied invasions of North
Africa, Europe and the Pacific
were developed by the navy and
group of scientists and engi
neers at California Institute of
Technology, the navy revealed
tonight.
The project, which began In
September, 1941, is continuing,
the navy said, with most recent
developments still secret.
"Magnitude and development
of the work can be seen from the
fact that rocket research and de
velopment stand almost at the
top of manpower and materials
priorities and the fact that the
army and navy have placed rock
et production contracts totaling
many millions," a statement
from the naval ordnance bureau
declared.
"One type of rocket weapon
developed by this cooperative ef
fort has been in 'general use in
anti-submarine warfare for over
two years.
"Another was used In Inva
sions of Nosth Africa, Sicily, It
sly and France, in the landing
on Arawe and in subsequent isl
and hopping in the south Pacific
and has become standard equip
ment for all amphibious opera
tions. "Mors recently airborne rock
ets have been developed as arm
ament for carrier based pnd am
phibian plant's and have been
used successfully against Ger
man submarine and against Japa
nese shipping and land instal
lations in the. Pacific."
