The inventors are Max Beck, professor of tenchnical electricity, University of Inssbruck, and lieutenant of engi neers; and Professor von Schrotter of the University of Vienna. The electrically heated underwear is made of non-conducting material inter woven with a system of fine wires. For each series of trenches it is necessary to install an electric plant, from which conducting wires are car ried. When a soldier feels cold, all he has to do is to connect up his un derwear with the current wires. The garment offers special facilities for warming the hands merely by plac ing them in the pockets of the trous ers. One possib’e danger of the elec trically heated underwear is a short circuit, hut the inventors are confi dent they have practically eliminat ed this possibility by a secret system. As now perfected it will be possible for soldiers to warm themselves with this electrical clothing in trenches about 400 feet in front of the electri cal plant; in isolated advance posts, the underwear may be warm<*d 1,500 feet away. A transformer located in the trenches regulates the degree of warmth. A full wired pair of drawers weigh less than two pounds and cost only $20. They will be extensively used on the Russian front this winter. DANIELS PLANS SI BMARINES BA' K VND FLEET FOR t . S. WASHINGTON, Dec. 28.—Many submarine bases along the LT. S. coasts was one of the defense features submitted by Navy Secretary Daniels to Congress. Daniels says the experi mental base at New London has been proved a success. “The strain of service on submarine crews is so great that it is necessary to provide a place where they muy rest up after trips,” said Mr. Daniels. “Quiet quarters should be provided where the men may recuperate while the vessels are resupplied and re paired.” \ The new submarine M-l, just launched is the i\r>t so-called U. S. fleet submarine. Her sister ship is the Schley. These vessels are expect ed to accompany the battle fleet on cruises of any length. The new naval program calls for fifteen of the M type vessels. It is proposed to build a large number of smaller, coast de defense submarines. Several of these small subs, however, have recently run the 2,000 miles between San Francisco and Honolulu.
