New Fall Plaids
Submarine Here Again.

The appearance Of German submarines
along the American coast, this time
within three or four miles of Cape Cod,
raises no new danger and suggests no
new counsel not already brought into
evidence, just seven weeks age, BY the
first reports of their activities this side
Of the Atlantic, If the immediate local
ity Of their operations points to a more
determined effort on the part Of the
U-boat commanders to strike at Ameri-
can troop transports, that Is scarcely
novel factor in the situation From the
outset the transports have been the SUI
preme stake for which the U-boats could
operate in these waters, and the Ger
mans eagerness to attain il must as
much be taken for granted in respect Of
the first raid as in this second cam.
paign. By similar token it must be as
sumed that the supreme concern of the
United States navy, apart from Its oper-
atoms in the actual war zone, is still to
protect the transports and defend them
with all possible power against the sub
marine menace. Certainly the Ameri-
can public will not for one moment play
into the hands Of the German purpose,
by clamoring for any least diversion of
whatever strength the navy needs to
maintain the lines of troop movement or
by counselling any withdrawal of Amer
lean ships from the active war zone
There the submarines are concentrated
and concentration can only be met by
counter concentration.
As for the new raid itself, if 1t is de-
signed as a more direct attempt on the
transport lanes than the first was, then
ees, in this regard, than the first did
Although the San Diego was important
prey, which may very probably have
been taken by torpedo, it is not by the
Orleans affair that the submarines can
cover themselves with any particular
glory, even OF the kind made in Ger
many A tug and three barges, two
of them empty, neither represent seri-
GUS loss to our coastwise shipping nor
bear any possible relationship to the
transport service. Rather the puerile
attack on the barges seems a direct re-
linquishment of German efforts to bag
bigger game, as being, at least for the
time, too dangerous for them to attempt.
Yet II the submarines were TO operate
against any convoy Of Importance, GER
tainly the weather during the last few
days has allowed them conditions as
ideal as they ever can have for the pur-
pose. For three days past, especially on
Friday when the San Diego was attack
ed, the sea along this coast has been one
great sheet of glass, with just enough
mist in the offing to obscure a periscope
from more than the smallest chance Of
detection. while leaving vessels of size
quite clearly exposed to a periseope's OBJ
servation. Whether or not the moon is
considered by the Germans as an i'm
portant factor in timing their operations
here, none the less it is worth while
observing that each of their two raids
has been promoted when the moon was

in a favoring phase. The first attacks
began on May rs, the very day when the
moon reached its full, and continued un
I'll the moon was dark The June moon
saw no submarines on the western At
lantie. But just after the July moon
had attained its first quarter, on the
10th Of this month, the new raids be-
gan, this time with moonlight stretch
ing before them for nearly two weeks.
Since the periscope cannot be success
fully used without good measure of
actual daylight, the night has not been
found favorable period for submarine
operations in the war zone, where the
water are so heavily guarded that only
the periseope dare be shown. Here, where
the protection is less, the U-boats seem
much more ready to risk full exposure
above the water-line, and so may plan
to use the moonlight as freely as one
did the sun yesterday, when it remained
in view off Orleans, as some reports say,
for more than an hour.
When the assurance comes along that
all local facilities have been organized
for the largest possible measure Of ag-
gressive defense, there will be no ques-
ton of New England's receiving the
submarines here as anything more than a
compliment which it deserved. First to
herald Americas need Of preparedness,
New England should be allowed pre-
cisely the near-at-home proof Of the
business of her contention which the
present raids now afford. New England
will receive these attacks as stout-heart-
edly as ever she clamored, many months
ago, to be given her chance to share in
suppressing the German tyranny that
menaces all shores, by black submarine
or by still blacker shadow, the entire
world over-Boston Transcript.

French people, they only made France

a thing were possible. Two years of
air raids on Britain have destroyed
less than two thousand lives. An
other rank military failure.
Probably. Air Raid Here.
Air raids on our coast are not at
all impossible or improbable. We
hear that the Germans have a SUBJ
marine airplane % launch from the
vessel. That is. of course, possible
and probable. But what can it ac-
complish?
1t would take submarine at
least an hour to get an airplane out
of her hold and assemble it on the
water, and they would have to have
clear weather. The airman would
be able to make a flight and possibly
drop a few bombs; but his Chance
of returning to his vessel would be
small. Certainly he would not b.
able to do it in the daytime, with
the destroyers and patrol moving
up and down.
His chances at night would be
one in ten million. The airplane,
of course. would be lost. The sub
marine would stand about one
change out of fifty in lying off the
coast long enough for assembling
the plane and then waiting for the
airman to return.
The submarines undoubtedly will
come from time to time, but
they cannot enter a port. for rea-
sons very well known. Their first
appearance has been military

COUNSEL TAKE

ANDSPY CASES
O'Leary Charges Probed BY
Government Attorneys
Who Claim Proofs.

The Governments case against Jere-

sons. indicted Friday in the United
States district court at New York
on charges OF conspiracy to commit
treason against the United States and
to commit espionage. was the subject
of lengthy conferences yesterday be-
tween Francis G. GaffneY United
States district attorney for southern
New York, and John Lord O'Brian,
special assistant to Attorney General
Gregory for war work.
There were indications, following
the conferences, that additional ar.
rests are planned. This could not be
officially confirmed, however. Both
officials declined to give out any def.
mite information owing to the delicacy
Of the case.
Conclusive Evidence.
Mr.. oBrian stated that the cases
against O'Leary and the six other de-
PENDANTS would be handled as local
matters by the New York district at
torney's office. The plan of prose
cution was gone over thoroughly, and
it is understood the Department OF
Justice believes it has conclusive evi-
dence.
None of the information on which
the indictments were based had beer
obtained directly or indirectly from
any foreign government. said Attor-
ney General Gregory. Nor was any
of the information disclosed to any
foreign government, he stated.
