College 'Continues Army,
Navy Experimental Aid
Although the war is over, the
engineering department continues
its experimental work for the Ar
my and Navy.
TV± Army Ordnance Depart
ment shipped up two 40 mm. anti
aircraft guns, which is have been
placed in aluminum casings. The
confronting problem is how to pro
tect the Army’s mobile armament
in lpng term storage against de
terioration of age.
The problem facing the Navy
is quite similar. Experiments are
being carried on to find a method
of preserving inactive vessels by
iehumid ’fleation procedure, which
is keeping the moisture content so
low that corrosion won't take
place.
