Five flving boats left Huntington, L. at 1.30 Friday and arrived about 3.30 afternoon at the plant of the New London Ship and Engine com- pany at Groton. They are to be equip- ped with the Davison non-recoil sub- marine gun. Officials from the navy department at Washinston and officers of the General Ordnance company of Derby, of which Gregory C. Davison is head, will accompany the flying boats to Fisher's Island sound, where the guns will be tested The submarine gun if proven a suc- cess will revolutionize the war against i Friday the submarine menace. It claimed that the gun can shoot a projectile into the water for a substantial dis- without deflection. The theory phase of the gun is tance of the non-recoil Zun which is being used with success on_the battlefields of Europe. The submarine gun is carried aboard the planes, which fiy at a height where the shadow of the submarine can be discerned The observer points the Zun and fires at the shadow and if the shot hits its mark the plate of the sub- marine is punctured and the undersea craft is rendered helpless and probably will sink to the bottom. The gun is the only one In existg?ce as far as known that will shoot for any distance, it is_claimed, through the water without deflecting. The planes are large affairs, much bigger than any of the flving machines heretofore seen in this vicinity.
