Kavul officers, who refused lo be (juoted, have been frankly angered by the persistence of a number ot oil tankers flying a foreign flag which hnve "blundered' upun the scene of maneuvers. Unable to escape the prying eyes, naval headquarters have announced maneuvers for a certain date, and then have gone through their exer cises a day in advance. Only then, it was learned, has ' the navy been unmolested. One "mystery ship" in particular has followed the fleet to battle grounds off San Clemcnte island. It resembles a tanker, flies no flag and is not registered nt any Pacific coast port, officers said. It never has been known to venture within the 12-mile limit of United States ports.
