WASHINGTON, April 24.-Ameri-
can naval officers wait eagerly the
full story OF the successful French
British naval blow against the Ger
man destroyer and U-boat bases on
the Belgian coast.
The impression prevails here, sup
ported by certain facts regarding
American naval preparations, that a
carefully planned naval offensive
against the U-boats has begun which
is to be pressed vigorously until the
underwater raiders are bottled up
or checked to such an extent that
their operations will no longer be a
serious factor.
Officials here have been anticipat'
ing developments in the anti-subma-
rine warfare within the next few
weeks that would establish a definite
check on the U-boats American CO.
operation in this effort is being ex-
tended In various ways which can.
not be disclosed
1t has long been the belief OF many
officers here that much could be
done toward bottling up the U-boats
at their source-thelr bases on the
Belgian cost. This means to this end
suggested have been many, including
mine fields, increased numbers Of
lights, surface patrol craft, new de.
lection devices, aircraft and sub
marines All of these and other ele-
ments enter in whatever plan of op.
erations the navy supreme council
has formed.
The raids on Zeebrugge and Ostend
we're put through with dash and
enterprise that demonstrated the
high spirit of the allied naval forces
and the eagerness of officers and
men to get into the fight. The op-
Grafton is the most daring attempted
by the allied sea forces during the
war and the fact that landing parties
were successfully put ashore and the
survivors re-embarked in the face
of German batteries and troops.
shows, officers here say, that moth
ing should be viewed as impossible
