NAVY HUNTING FOR
NAZI RAIDERS

MYSTERY MOVEMENTS OF
BATTLESHIPS
By A NAVAL CORRESPONDENT
Although the Admiralty naturally preserves secrecy concerning its measures to round up the two German 10,000-ton "pocket battleships" believed to be at large, it may be taken for granted that a number of cruisers are searching for them.
Their hunt is helped by the seaplanes which, all modern cruisers carry as part of their normal equipment.
In the Allied Fleets there are five vessels not only faster, but more powerfully armed and better' protected, than the pocket battleships, the Admiral Scheer and the Deutschland.
It is possible that the Admiral Scheer has quitted the South Atlantic and rounded Cape Horn to pursue her depredations in the Pacific, where it will be more difficult to locate her.
Assuming, as competent opinion now inclines to do, that two raiders are at large, it seems remarkable that so far only three British ships-the Booth liner Clement, on Sept. 30, the steamer Stonegate, on Oct. 5 and the Rawal- pindi-should have fallen victims to their activities.
It is known that, in addition to the seizure of the American steamer City of Flint and the sinking of the Stonegate, the Deutschland was also respon- sible for sending to the bottom the Norwegian steamer Lorentz W. Hansen and for stopping but not detaining two other Nor- wegian vessels,

There is strong support for the belief that the Admiral Scheer has transferred herself to the Pacille.

This would accord with a system of regular supply ships similar to that instituted by enemy agents in South American Dorts during 1914-15.
A further development that seems to be foreshadowed is that the Deutschland may be proceeding
