At an exhibition in Milan, Italy, we see a model of a new submarine lifesaver, in the form of a cylinder that brings one man at a time to the surface, then automatically returns to the sub. A man demonstrates how it works. In Stockholm, Sweden, we see a man driving about in a 20-year-old electrically powered car. M/Ss of batteries (?) under the bonnet and a dial inside the car.
