Subs Scheduled For Business
In fact, there already are so many subs plying the ocean depths that "we've almost reached that point right now," Anderson added.
The captain, now aide to the secretary of the Navy, said there's no practical limit to the size of a submarine. With large atomic engines, speed could be increased to 60 knots.
DETROIT — (UPI) — The biggest ship in the world may some day be a submarine.
Navy Capt. William Anderson, who took the atomic sub Nautilus en its pioneering North Pole voyage, offered this view recently. He said it was possible that subs may be used for commercial purposes and will be bigger than the largest ships now afloat.
Maintenance crews have removed some of the guard rails from the front of the Museum of Natural History in preparation for construction work on a new wing to be added to the building. The addition has been in the planning for 12 years.
The wing, which will cost somewhat less than $900,000, will extend 70 feet north of the present museum and will be 80 feet long. Modern architecture has been selected to blend with the existing building.
IF THAT HAFPENS, some sort of undersea traffic control would be needed to prevent collisions. Anderson said. A system of water lanes could be set up similar to the air-lanes used by transports, he said.
ANDERSON SAID shipbuilding firms in several countries have studied the possibility of large tanker submarines, perhaps as big as

Three cases of true influenza have been affirmed by laboratory reports. a Student Health Service official reported today.
Flu Bug Bugs 3 Health Clinic Says
Dr. R. A. Schwegler said that reports from the Kansas State Board of Health affirm the cases as being type "B" influenza.
Dr. Schwegler said these cases are the first that have been definitely identified this year in Kansas.

He said other states have had previous reports of this type of influenza and it is unusual that Kansas has had no previous reports.
He added that influenza shots are now available for students.
A bulk liquid carrying sub actually need not be very big, the captain said. The oil itself could be stored in a flexible envelope that need not weigh very much
100,000 tons displacement, designed to transport oil or other liquids.
The advantages of a commercial sub would be its ability to travel submerged at high speeds without being affected by surface storms and the better power-to-speed ratio of a submarine over a regular ship, he said.
CHAIRMAN ADAM Clayton Powell, D-N.Y., of the Education and Labor Committee has said it was a squabble over requested aid for church schools that killed last year's public school aid bill in the House. Everybody agrees the religious issue played a part, but other controversies also are cited.
"IN SURFACE SHIFS it's been proven that you can add a great deal more power without a comparable increase in speed." Anderson said. "A sub doesn't experience that phenomenon. We can cruise at very substantial speeds now without any problem."
WASHINGTON — (UPI)— President Kennedy keeps asking Congress to put up money to help build and staff public grade and high schools. Congressional leaders continue to say the idea is great. But nothing happens and nothing is likely to.
Whatever the issues were then, there is general agreement in Congress they are no different now. For that reason, nobody except President Kennedy now talks very seriously about reviving the general school aid bill.
School Aid Action Slow
Kennedy's latest plug for the bill came at a news conference. He said he is going to continue the fight. He also had a kind word for another school aid bill that Congress definitely is planning to give him.
The late Speaker Sam Rayburn last summer was said to have pronounced general school aid legislation "as dead as slavery." He was right last year, and nobody has figured any way to make him wrong this year.
THIS ONE CARRIES construction assistance for colleges. It could wind up including also some of the college scholarships Kennedy says are needed, although that seems now unlikely.
The House has passed a $1.5 billion five-year college-aid bill limited to classroom construction. The Senate has passed its own version carrying both construction aid and more than $900 million in scholarships.
