 Disaster Threatens : "If we take drastic measures" he continued. i've can cope with the sub marine menace, but if the nation is not prepared to accept drastic meas ures for dealing with the submarine menace, disaster is before Us.
 "The government is hopeful of find ing means of dealing with the sub'aar- inc but We should be guilty officially if We rested tranquilly on the expec- tation of the realization of that hope. We have to deal ruthlessly and promptly with the tonnage problem by measures which impose great sac rifces upon the country.
 There are three sets Of measures; first, by the navy as described by Sir Edward Carson (irst lord of the ad- miralty). second. the building of mer- chant ships; third, dispensing with unnecessary commodities from abroad and production of as much food as possible at hOme.'
 After discussion of various articles of import, the premier continued:
 ''Now I come to the reduction in food and feeding stuffs.
