Show Concrete 'Sub' Type Cargo Carrier Planned i P t, k . , V 4t 111 A submarine type cargo and troop carrier shaped like a torpedo and made of concrete is the dream of Hal B. Hayes, Hollywood contractor, and Hal Williams, motion picture producer. They claim that their craft would operate almost completely submerged and thus would present a poor target in submarine warfare. It would be cheap and light, they said, by utilizing concrete instead of steel. A model for the new type vessel is pictured above at Richmond, Calif. Inset: Hayes inspects the motors inside the new craft. |
