SUBMARINES ARE ORDERED.
Government Lets Contract for Many
Submarines for Navy.

Washington. Jan l4.-COntracts
We're awarded by the navy depart
ment today to the Electric Boat COM
pany for one sea- going submarine
to be built at Quincy, Mass, for 81
$4,000. and for three coast defense
submarines. to be built at Seattle,
Wash, at $i5O,OOO each. The Lake
Torpedo Boat company was awarded
contracts for four coast defense sub
marines to be built at Bridgeport,
Cam, for $427,OOO each.
The award to the Electric Boat
company was in conformity requir-
ing at least three Of the submarines
to be built on the Pacific coast, pro-
viding the extra cost would not eX-
ceed that of the transportation Of
the vessels from che Atlantic to the
Pacific Transportation in this case
woud have cast $4,000 for each
boat. whereas the cost of construc-
ton will be 100000 additional each.
The big sea going submarine Of
1000 tons will be twice as large as
any submarine now in a foreign macy.
Certain features of American design
will make this craft unique. She
will habe a radius of action of about
5000 miles, a surface speed of 90
knots and a submerged speed Of II
knots. By using her storage batter
les alone she will be able TO travel
completely under water for more
than a whole day. On her deck will
be carried rapid-fire guns, designed
to be completely enclosed when the
vessel dives beneath the surface. \
valuable feature will be directable
torpedo tubes, making is unneces-
sary to maneuver the ship to aim at
an enemy and adding enormously to
the crafts offensive power
The coast defense submarines are
only one-third the size OF the big
sea going type, although they them
selves are quite seaworthy for shori
voyages. These boats will have A
steaming radius on the surface OF
about 1000 miles. and their lighter
draft IS regarded as essential for
operations in comparatively shallow
| harbors.
