Improve Coast Defense.

The general staff of the U. S. army
has recommended the establishment of
a system of submarine defenses for the
coast. The plan has been approved by
Lieutenant General Chaffee and will be
by him submitted to congress.
This is one of the definite results of
the war in the far east, where torpedo
boats, both fixed and mobile, and sub
marine mines played such an import
ant part in the destruction of ships.
The new corps will embrace 5000
officers and men, who will be trained
in the specialized work of submarine
defense. 1t is proposed that members
of this corps shall not only have charge
of torpedo outfits and shore batteries
that will protect the mine fields, but
they shall be charged with the care
and operation of public plants, search
linghts and other accessories.
The estimed cost Of equipping the
proposed submarine defense is $4,000.
900. This will provide for "a fleet of
submarine torpedo boats for all the
principal harbors. searchlight equip
ment, wireless telepgraphy outfits and
floating mines.
1t is expected that the navy will en-
ter an objection to the plan that feet
of submarines be constructed for opera
ton by the army. There is much jeal-
ously between the services over this
question and it is already apparent
that the scheme will not so through
without fight.
