Coast Patrols Established.

Long ago the Navy established
semi-rigid type OF dirigble balloons
known as "blimps" which have been
successful along the English coast
line. The first of these was produced
in record time by American manu-
facturers and the Nays needs can
be met with little delay.
In addition the Navy has had con-
stantly priority in the use of liberty
motors and has produced and shipped
abroad a considerable|humber of high
powered, heavily armed flying boats
used chiefly for submarine hunting.
of the latest design are available
now as additional coastal protection.
Were on Way to Base in the South.
Those officials and others who have
been maintaining that German sub
marine bases had been established In
the Mexican gulf or in the West In
dies declared today's raid fully
demonstrated their theory.
This theory was that the sub
marines which participated in yester-
days attack were on their way to
the base in the south. having for
their immediate object the long lines
allied navies from the Tampico dis
trict. and taking the opportunity to
raid American shipping while on their
way.
These officers noted that the sub
marines carefully preserved their to-
pedoes for larger and more important
quarry and destroyed the small
American ships by bombs with shell
fire. Those who hold to this theory
said they expected that after having
reached southern bases and replenish-
ing their fuel. the submarines would
a n f1lrp nnrfhw2rd and affer hav.
ing made another raid return again
for fuel.
How long this can be kept up, they
said. depended entirely on the effect
iveness of the search, which American
anti-submarine craft conduct.
