to the navy department today from
scientists who have been working in

board. A number of conferences were
held while the board also remained
in the city to continue work with naval
experts.
Neither the secretary nor any naval
official would discuss the results Of
the meeting last night, further than
to say that progress was being made.
In some cases extensive tests have
already been made with striking re-
suits. One official explained that what
was being done probably would result
in several things being added to tho
warfare on the submarine.
Germans Have Silent U.Boat.

partment has reason to believe that an
answer to the submarine menace has
been found comes the news that Ger

Enabled Call for Help.
The fact OF the presence OF a sub
marine was sufficient, however to
cause q steamer to send out a wire
less for help, and the call was re-
sponded to by destroyers and airplanes,
with the result that the underwater
boat was either destroyed or 1t was
forced to retreat.
AS the detector reported the sub
marine by the sound OF the boats pro
pellers. German scientists concentrat-
ed their efforts upon building ships
