NOT YET SEA RULER
Supremacy Of Submarine Re-
mains to Be Proved.
War Has oisproved Some Of Sir Percy
SCOTS Theories Regarding Naval
Warfar-Radius Of unSersea
Craft Is Increasing.

London:-lt is a year since Admiral
Sir Percy Scott published his famous
letter on the use of the submarine IN
warfare.
The chief points he put forward
were: a.
Submarines have entirely done away
with the utility OF ships that swim on
the water.
No ksan-o.war would dare to come
within sight Of a coast adequately pro
tected by submarines.
II by submarines we close esress
from the North sea it is difficult to
see how our commerce can be much
interfeTed with.
With sufficient submarines about it
would not be safe for a feet to put
to sea
No feet can hide itself from the
submarines eye. and the submarine
can deliver a deadly attack even in
broad daylight.
With q .iotilla Of submarines &.
I would undertake to get into any
harbor and sink or damage all the
ships in that harbor,
There were many replies to the let
ter. Lord Sy6snhan admitted that
the submarine would undoubtedly i'm
pose new risks On large ships in Ger
tain waters, and if favored by chance
would obtain occasional successes, In
remarking that submarines could not
serve all the purposes demanded OF
ships it is noteworthy that Lord Sy-
Genhan anticipated that warfare con-
Quoted by submarines alone must lead
to piracy"
One of the ablest of Sir Percy
Scott's anonymous critics, signing him.
self r. n, said:
We cannot regard the torpedo.
whether carried by the ~bat,leship,
the destroyer or the submarine, eth
er as a decisive or a primary weapon.
At the most it introduces an element
into naval warfare equivalent to that
which ambushes, surprise attacks, cut.
ting out expeditions play in other
kinds of guerrilla warfare. 1t will at.

no sense intellectually, as its use can

feet"
This seemed to be the opinion OF
the great majority of navy men. Win
ston Churchill said in a speech that
many believed a blow might be struck
beneath the water which will be ia.
tai to the predominance of great bat
tleships at any rate in the narrow
seas. That time has not
come yet, and the ultimate decision
OF naval war rests with those who
can place in the line of battle fleets
and sguaorons which in numbers.
quality and homogeneity, in organiza.
ton, in weight of metal and in good
shooting are superior to anything
they may be called on to meet"
Sir Percy Scott, in reply to his crit
les, opposed Lord Sydenham's asser'
ton that submarines would need a
parent ship and suggested that theii
range of action was increasing. As
. matter OF fact it is now believed
that the German submarines in addi'
ton to what supplies OF oil and 9th
er n~ecessaIies they can get from dis
guised ships are using submarines Of
the old types as tenders and bring
them to the surface for the purpose
Of transferring supplies.
Admiral Bacon said in q letter:
The idea OF attacking commerce BY
submarines is barbarols." Sir Percy
