LONDON, Oct. 3o.-Much space is de
voted today in the morning papers to n
discussion of Germany's submarine war on
Norwegian trade. 1t is pointed out that
Norway now has lost about one seventh of
her total merchant shipping The Times
says: a sinister purpose of the German
onslaught is that Germany aims primarily
at the destruction of tonnage during the
war with the intention of supplying its
place from German shpyards hereafter. >
The Daily Mail suggests that Germany
may be seeking to force war upon Norway
or possibly hopes to ferment strife be-
tween Norway and Sweden to her own ad-
vantage.
