Germany sent out 100 submarines

forty-eight were either captured or

When the British Admiralty learned
that Germany was preparing 70 renew
her submarine activities principally
against Grear Britain they recalled sew
eral fleets OF traw.e-s and mine sweep
ers from the North Sea and sent them
on patrol duty in the Channel and the
Irish sea, with the result that forty
eight German submarines were sum-
msrily accounted for.

Many OF the German submarines have
been only partially damaged and have

British Admiralty has been able to
learn many valuable facts regarding
the construction and maneuvring Of
the enemy's feet from the captured
craft.
Great Britain has launched new sub

WHAT INVASION MEANS.

France is a little larger than Cali
fornia, and good deal smaller than
Texas, The German invasion at its
height covered little over per cent
Of it. The retreat after the battle pi
the Marine cut 1t down to half that
much Thus the devastation wrought
by the German occupation has been
practically confined to about per
cent OF the area Of what is. to Amcri-
cans. a very small country. AT the
beginning OF the present year the Ger.
mans held only 3,7 per cent of it.
What has happened to that little
slice OF invaded territory is pretty
well known to the American public
from the detailed accounts printed in
this country of the destruction found
in the wake of the recent German re.
treat. But the full extent of the dam
age is hardly realized In fact, is al.
most unrealzable.
A technical commission nvestigat-
ing the devastation already accomp.
lished In northern France, basing its
figures on inventories of definitely
ascertained damages in reconquerod
sections, estimates that up to date
they amount to about $4,000, GOO 600.
What they will total by the time the
Germans are expelled from the whole
area is matter of conjecture.
This Is just hint Of what would
happen II the Germans ever invaded
the United States, as they almost Ger
tainly would sooner or later it We
failed to prepare ourselves for sue
