London.-The American destroyer
contingent, now with the British meet,
is doing its part in taking some Oh
the sting from the submarine menace
Premier Lloyd George in the House
OF Commons has given high praise 10
American aid, remarking that more
effective blows have been dealt the
submarines during the last three
weeks than in any corresponding
period of the war.
AS a result, he declared, the 1000
situation in Great Britain shows i'm
provement and the month OF May
should show a falling off in the num-
Der of submarine victims as compared
with April. The Premier said that
II British civilians and soldiers be-
have like reasonable human beings
who want to save their country from
disaster, privation and distress, the
submarine menace need cause no fear
that the war will be lost for that
reason.
