dent Wilson. He carried with him all
reports that have reached the depart
mcnt on the sinking of the three
American vessels.
THE situation is too serious to dis
cuss,'' was the only official word from
the state department previous to Ian
sings departure for the White House.
MODELLING ITS FORCES.
Mobilizing its forces today, the navy
department appealed to American boat
builders for construction Of submarine
'chasers' to patrol American waters
and prepared to put into effect the
communicating of all private motor
boats of sufficient size and speed to
meet the requirements of anti-subma =
rine warfare. That the department
wantsto act swiftly was apparent by
the fact that the bids for the subma =
rine chasers were to be opened We'd
nesday. Usually such bids are adver-
tised for a considerable time in advance
of their opening. In connection with
plans for communicating private craft,
it is known naval boards in every coast
state have listed all available vessels
and drawn tentative contracts for their
transfer to the naval service.
Telegraph orders from the depart
ment to close the contracts and take
over the ships would be all that is nee
essary, the apartment stated.
Boats as small as So feet and possibly
smaller. will be. subject to selection.
Bids in response to the appeal VIII
be opened Wednesday.
The chasers will be manned by naval
militia and the enlisted mems volunteer
reserve, consisting largely OF fishermen
and seafaring men along the Atlantic
coast. Large numbers of these have
volunteered for immediate service on the
chasers should they be required, IL was
stated.
The boats will be constructed out Of
the $115, 100000 fund appropriated by
congress for use in a national emer-
gency. They are to have from rs to IS
knot speed. Deliveries are to begin
within four months.
Secretary Lansing left the White
House shortly after noon, refusing to
comment in any way regarding his con-
ference with the president.
