SECRET WEAPONS.
(Rec. 11.15 a.m.) LONDON, June 11. The Americans captured a group of German naval experts who had been working on secret weapons at a hidden experimental station on the lonely Lake Toplitz, in the Austrian Alps, says Reuter’s correspondent in Austria. Experts are known to have been experimenting on midget submarines. The lake can be reached only along a single mountain track which was always heavily guarded. Naval experts sank their equipment in the lake, which is 1000 feet deep, and they are being questioned. Divers are preparing to descend to investigate what else is there beside midget submarines and torpedoes.
