Compressed air has revolutionized technique of subaqueous tunneling in dangerous and waterlogged ground; human problem is predominant, since men are apt to contract caisson disease; results of researches on compressed air working in connection with deep water diving; effects of carbon dioxide on human beings; tables show hours of work and times of decompression at various pressures and relation between caisson sickness, pressures, etc; several air compressors illustrated.
