Submarine Salvaged
After 12 Years in Sea
Kiel, Germany V A Nazi
submarine has been salvaged
after 12 years on the bottom of
the Baltic Sea. But it will never
see service in the new West
German navy. It's too big.
Salvage craft towed the elec
tric U-boat 2540 into this port
Wednesday. It had been scuttled
off Flensburg, between Germany
and Denmark, in March 1345 to
prevent it from falling into the
hands of the victorious Allied
forces.
The submarine, lying under
35 feet of water, was found last
February. It was raised by the
German salvase ships Energie
and Ausdauer following their re
turn from salvase operations in
the Suez Canal.
The submarine was the most
modern and best equipped un
derwater craft built by Nazi
Germany.

Back Stairs: Ike's Substitute Plane
By PATRICIA WIGGINS
United Press Correspondent
Washington IP Back stairs
at the White House:
President Eisenhower's return
from the national governors con
ference at Williamsburg, Va. in
a substitute Air Force plane
when his own plane, the Co
lumbine III. failed to start points
up anew the care taken in presi
dential trael.
Presidential pilot. Lt. Col.
William G. Draper, expected that
the Columbine trouble a fail
ure of its electrical system
could be fixed up for the trip
back to Washington. But he
chose to put the President in
the substitute plane until a com
plete repair and checking job
could be done on the Columbine
b.ick in its own hangar.
He did so even though the
electric trouble would not have
affected the actual flying of the
aircraft.
As it turned out, Draper's ex
pectations were correct, and the
big silver Columbine was flown
back to the capital with no mis
hap. But Draper, who probably
gives the Columbine more at
tention than any other plane in
the world gets, never takes even
the slightest chance with the
President aboard.
Air Force man Draper's dilem
ma with the Columbine earned
him a ribbing from another
crack pilot on the White House
staff, a ribbing that was laugh
ingly enjoyed by Eisenhower.
When Eisenhower stepped
down the Columbine ramp to
switch pianes. his naval aide
and naval flier Capt. E. P. Pete
Aurand, was standing at the foot
of the ramp with a grin on his
face a mile wide.
Aurand added insult to injury
by suggesting that the President
return to Washington on one of
the hvo small crafts the Navy
maintains for presidential water
travel the suggestion was ve
toed, because there was not
enough room on board for the
entire presidential party.
for sinking a Japanese cruiser
with one bomb dropped down
its smokestack from only 75
feet. Aurand says only, "I was
lucky, they weren't looking."
Aurand may sing the praises
of the Navy, particularly for
Draper's benefit, but he is the ;
picture of modesty about his own
impressive career in it. I
Little know n fact about the
crack flier, first Navy flier to i
land a jet on an aircraft carrier, j
is the job that won for him the j
Navy Cross.
He was given the high award '
