It was thanks to this invention that the Compagnie Translantiquc liner Le Card was able to escape two Gorman submarines on May sth last. The incident was filmed and shown subsequently in Paris picture palaces. Other devices arc employed to foil atI tacks made by submarines when submerged. A highly-placed naval authority in France says in the “Matin,” quoted by Reuter: — “The submarine danger is being diminished. Every successful innovations are made in our system of defence. “Multiplication of patrols, new route arrangements and the arming of merchantmen are reducing the losses of the Allies more and more. “There are smoke clouds, and there are other inventions which increase the difficulty of the pirates ’ task. Our submarine listening microphones have been perfected to a degree which we would never have entured to hope for only a few -weeks ago. “Once they arc supplied with these devices all ships will be able to recognise the presence of a submarine, its distance and its direction, and then can manoeuvre so as to avoid it. “On the other hand, the gunboats and scouting vessels can at the same time take up the pursuit. “That is why the British naval authorities are confident; and we, too, have gcod grounds for hope.” A still more wonderful device has been worked out by the editor of the “Electrical Experimenter.” The microphone is connected with a torpedo, which follows its ears as a dog follows a scent, chasing its prey in any direction and to any depth. At the torpedo’s muzzle is an electro-magnet, which holds it to the U boat’s side, while another machine telegraphs the grip to the boat which launches the torpedo. This establishes communication between the chaser and the U boat’s commander, who is sumoned to come up and surrender or be blown to pieces.
