LAST Weeks LOSSES
FROM U-BOATS HEAVY

London. June 2l.-The weekly
list OF British losses in torpedoed
ships shows the highest total in many
weeks. the number of ships sunk be-
ing comparable to the worst week
since the ruthless U-boat campaign
began. The returns week by week
for the last three months show that
the U-boat activities run in waves
and It is assumed that this week is
the crest OF a period of super-activity
noticed the previous week.
The situation. however, is not re-
garded over-pessimistically by naval
men who insist that the admiralty
methods Of fighting the submarines
are constantly growing in efficiency.
In support Of this they point to the
constantly increasing number Of
boats which escape the submarines.
