first to suggest the type. In the
strategic problems worked out on the

startling results.
Because armor IL not necessary FOR

runs. and as the craft lies low IL the

for Capt. Sims's assumption that
something out Of the ordinary was
likely to issue from Wilhelmshaven be-
fore the end Of the present struggle.
