up Il was performing no useful purpose
and therefore IL was unnecessary for the
enemy to bring about an engagement.
He said probably no commander-in-chief
OF fleet would subject his ships to the
attacks Of a great fort or to the danger
OF submarine mines as a preliminary to
fighting with another battle fleet, as It
would mean running the risk of going into
an engagement in a damaged condition
Accomplishing Purpose.
The influence Of the British fleet. he
added, was such that without firing a
gun It had accomplished its purpose of
driving German commerce off the seas
Of insuring safe transportation of the En-
glish army to the continent and of pro-
tecting neutral tra,A with England
Admiral Badger expressed the opinion
that II would be a mistake to station sub
marine craft at any particular ports along
the Atlantic or Pacific or gulf for coast
defense. saying that handling the sub
marines as flotillas rather than as sepa-
rated coast defenses would make for
greater efficiency. He added that while
opinions differed as to the number of
submarines necessary for protection of
the insular possessions and for coast de-
Tense, he regarded 100 submarines alto
gether as adequate. He wanted these to
be Of different classes, the seagoing as
well as the smaller ones for shore opera
tons.
Listens Eagerly.
The committee listened eagerly to the
admlrars account OF tests made by the
aircraft scouts of the Atlantic fleet 1t
was demonstrated, he said. in the Car
ribean Sea and at Guantanamo that an
airship could locate a submarine mine
submerged to a depth of fifty feet. He
declared that approximately the same re-
suits could be obtained anywhere in the
ocean. or where there were no rivers to
muddy the water.
The admiral dwelt upon the efficiency
OF the American warshlps. He said in
the Atlantic fleet every gun was fired
twenty times aayear in target practice.

ARE DETERMINED

Germans Prepare for Another
Attempt to Take French

Paris, Nov. "a decisive defeat of
the Bavarian army, which was irving
to force its way along the coast from
the direction of Ostend to Dunkirk,
France, was claimed today by the Bel,
gian forces engaged in opposing the
invasion.
From Havre, the temporary seat of

The Germans were said, however, to
be forming a new 'front.' massing re-
Inducements in the vicinities Of Ypres,
Lille and Arras, and it was expected
they would make fresh attempt to
reach the French coast from this quar-
ter.
That they were adhering to their
original determination to capture the
cities of the French northern coast was
inferred from the reports of aviators,
who declared they were distributing re.

With a view to resisting these opera

Experts here were convinced that
German strategy urgently requires pos
session by the kaiser Of the French
coast from the Belgian frontier as far
as Calais. They said they were glad
of this, as they were convinced the
Germans would not get what they
sought and their failure was likely to
have an exceedingly disorganizng ef.
