PRECAUTIONS
BEING TAKEN
BY THE NAVY

NEWPORT, R. l., Oct. 12-The
American navy is taking every pre-
caution against the use of the Ameri-
can coast as a base of supplies for
foreign submarines. All day there
was great activity among the de-
stroyer fotilla at the naval base here
and when the destroyers Mccall, Por-
ter and Cummings went out on a
mysterious mission this afternoon,
Rear Admiral Knight, in command
of this district. was asked II the
boats were searching for a submarine
base or looking up some foreign
submarine tender
Il cannot answer that" the ad.
miral stated. but. we are letting nc
report of submarine bases or tenders
pass by without investigation"
Shore leave among the men of the
fleet has been greatly curtailed and
each ship in activity command has
virtually full complement always
on hand. Many of the officers ad
mitted that they were running n,
chances of being caught short handed
as they we're Sunday. when severa
destroyers went to sea with only
third of their men to rescue thu
crews and passengers of the ship.

STILL CONSIDERING SUBMARINE CASE

hasty or ill-advised decision in 50
important a matter
Whether the German ambassador
took proper care for the safety OF
the persons he put into small boats
from the attacked vessels is Ques-
tion involving points on which Off
cials believe there is no clear prece-
dent, and on which a decision by the
United States might approximate a
precedent, at least so far as concerns
any further submarine operations
Germany may contemplate ON this
side of the Atlantic.
Before any policy is determined
upon, II is expected that the opinion
of the neutrality board. created at the
beginning of the war to advise the
state department in regard to such
questions, will be consulted
The board was called into session
Immediately after the U boat ap-
peared on this side of the Atlantic
and several meetings have been held
since. Any decision II renders Will
be submitted to Secretary Lansing,
but will not be binding. Much sig
nficance is attached to the findings
of this board, which in the Appam
case, for instance. laid down the
policy approved by the department
and upheld In the courts.
Considerable interest centers on
the continued silence of the allied
embassies Again II was stated posi-
lively at the state department that
no representations of any sort had
been received from the allies as a
result of the U-53 depredations of
the American coast.

FOREIGN COMMENT ON
RECENT DIVER RAID

BERLIN. Oct 12.-The newspapers
continue to show great interest In
the German submarine activities on
the American coast The news of the
submarine raid Is prominently
printed, but there Is a singular indis.
position to comment on II. The
possibility that it win lead to politi-
cal complications with the Washing
ton government Is generally dis
missed when il is discussed at all.
The Morgen Post declares that the
submarines are acting in accordance
with the humane" methods which
Germany promised President Wilson
would be carried out. The Cologne
Gazette says the appearance of sub
marines in the Atlantic merely de
notes a lengthening of their radius
of action. rendering it possible "to
strike the enemy hard and effectively
but in such form as not to expose US
to hampering complaints from any
quarters which might believe itself
entitled to complain"
