New Submarine Detection Device Aids Neutral Patrol
Washington January 23 Navy officials reveal a secret underwater listening device capable of locating submarines and surface ships up to ten miles away. Rear Admiral R R Waesche urged a 1941 budget of 1 820 000 to fit 29 cutters and 49 patrol boats with the gear for neutrality patrols. The system would have helped when the Cunarder Coulmore reported torpedoing east of Nantucket, as there were orders to pursue a submarine but no sound-detection tool.
