FrorTY loudspeakers compose @ robot boatswain’s mate on a large battleship recetitly constructed in England. The telephone-radio equipment, located at strategic points over the vessel, shouts the commander's ordérs in stentorian tones heard by every member of the crew. At other times the system broadcasts music from the ship’s .orchestra. Asa test before the apparatus was accepted, men with heavy sledgehammers beat on the iron plates to which the speakers were fixed, the amplifiers being required to operate in spite of this abuse.
