cials assert their opinion that the plans
have not fallen into the hands OF
foreign alton.
Secretary Daniels regards the theft
with much concern, not so much be-
cause Of the loss Of the plans as be-
cause the incident emphasizes the ur-
gency of better protection for other
plans and naval records of a secret
character. He has taken steps TO
throw safeguards about the various
Offices containing such information.
The first set Of plans was on board
in the drafting room in the bureau OF
steam engineering on the night of
March 1. and was missing the next
morning. Officials are not certain
when the other plans were taken. but
il is presumed it was soon after the
first set disappeared.

thinks il is possible that among the
number was the thief or thieves, who
