London, Oct. 5-A high naval au-
thority, discussing Admiral Won Tir-
PITTS recent statement, with it's gro
tesque confidence in U-boats, sug-
gested today that his optimism was
based on German official figures which
were demonstrably wrong.
Submarine officers misled their su-
periors in reports he explained. These
probably enter as sunk many vessels
which are torpedoed but reach port,
and also exaggerated the size of the
victims. Even if German officers tried
to be accurate, the authority said, err
rors were inevitable las submarines
must submerge and make quick get
away for their own safety.
Official German estimates of sink
ings of enemy and neutral vessels since
the beginning of unrestricted ruthless
ness have just been received here.
A little under a million tons month
is the totals alleged. AS an actual
fact the estimates are just so per
cent. too high. This explains the
extraordinary continuance of faith
| among the German people in the eff
| ficiency of U-boat warfare.
