SCARE IS DIscREol1ED
Secretary of Navy Says There IL No
Foundation for Rumor Of Ger
man Submarines.

"ASHlNGTON, July 15.-Secretary
OF the Navy Daniels tonight discred-
ited tho latest submarine scare"
Reports had been published Of the
receipt by the government of ineor-
nation that one. or a fleet. of German
submarines OF extraordinary sise and
efficiency were headed for the Amori
can coasts. Other reports persisted of
the presence OF raider In Chesapeake
bay where great part Of the worlds
shipping passes into Hampton Roads.
Tho reports had gone 80 far as to
mint that a submarine had made It's
way through Chesapeake Bay to the
mouth OF the Potomac and contem-
plated an attack on Washington. Great
aotivity OF searchlights from the navy
yard, Washington barracks and Fort
hunt on the river, were pointed to
as bearing out these reports.
Secretary Daniels to-day moved
promptly to dony these rumors:
Tho Navy Department has received
no reports that submarine Ia in hid
Ing In Chesapeake Bay" no said.
Neither do We know anything about
submarine being reported In the Po-
tomac River or OF a feet of subma.
rines crossing the ocean to raid our
coasts"
The reports had said the defensive
war sreas" along the coast were bo
ing closed in anticipation Of the raid.
The department said there had b.s,
no new orders for these districts and
mat they were operating tho same IA

velop chapters and add to the nearly
100000 members tho Red Cross al
ready has. 1t Is clear that there is
unlimited service and ability In this
country which wants to help, and We
believe that through Mr.. Glbson's cf-
forts. force OF tremendous power
Will. be brought into effective action
There has with perfect reason been
some impatiencc over tho lack OF d.
rection afforded by tho Red Crosse for
tho vast quantity Of volunteer effort
available. We have been looking for
Just the man to supply this need. and
we believe we have found him in Mr..
Gibson. No moro important step than
this has been taken In organizing tho
Red Cross for real work in this war"
Mr.. Gibson has for some months past
been chairman Of the executive com.
mittee OF tho Now York County chap
ter. and Is thoroughly iamili.r with
the problems and activities of the Red
Cross. He became president OF tho
Liberty National Bank the LIST OF Jan.
uary OF this year. having been before
that the assistant manager OF the
American Express Company. At the
beginning OF tho war in Europe he VAS
appointed head OF the committee OF
bankers which was sent to Euror,
to distribute the gold which was sent
on the cruiser Tennessee for the re.
lief of marooned Americans.
Broad plans for reorganizing the
work OF the chapters Of the Red Cross
In order to the better coordinate their

Gibson and his stan. Conferences will

OF the United States. At these con-
ferences II Is expected that procedure
Will be determined upon whereby the
great network OF Red Cross organ
izations throughout the country may
be perfected and made efficient.
