Driving Ships With Cantpltor. New York. March 15. Will ships of the future be oatnpbor-drivenV It was demonstrated recently that this substance will drive, objects through water. A piece of zinc foil was cut. out In the shape of a bout, at the stern of which was placed a small lump of camphor. The vpsspI was then placed In a dish of water, where it proceeded to sail round in circles. Had the disli been big enough, this unique ship would have sailed on for thousands of miles. The secret of the new motive power is that the camphor gradually dis- vcs.thns reducing the resistance at the back of the boat. In the ease of the experiment described, this caused a disturbance and forced the vessel onwards. Only a minute por tion of tho omiphor dissolved, and a pice ns big as a plnhead would drive a toy boat many miles. Much ground has to be covered be fore camphor can be used commercial ly as a driving force, but If scientists achieve the, success they expect, ships will cost little to run, and all fe.ar of a breakdown will he banished for the simplo reason that there will be noth ing to go wrong in n camphor-driven vessel.
