Welshman plans grand salvage of Titanic wreck
CHIRK Wales AP From a 14th century North Welsh farm, John Pierce, a self taught engineer, plans to raise the Titanic using hydrogen filled bags and deep sea subs. He cites a 29 November Admiralty Court ruling on Lusitania salvage as backing for funds. Pierce aims to survey next summer and build subs by 1988, facing skeptics who warn the site is a grave and debate over ownership and preservation.
