Reducing Submarine Losses
(BY Fl. S. H.)

1.-THE announcement of Wednesday from London giving
the total sinkings of British es-els during the
previous week by submarine operations is both sur
prsng and gratifying. The sport shows that vessels
sunk of which 1000 tons and eight under
1900 tons Of the eight five merchantmen and three
fishing vessels.
Qualification arises from the fact that the number Of
nngs decreased greatly compared with the figures
made public Wednesday, May for the preceding
that date, which gave total OF 81 vessels sunk The
comparison shows that considerably less than half as
British vessels sunk in the days preceding May
in the week preceding May The losses in the week
ending May were about the those of the week
ending May 3
The smaller losses shown in the latest report are not
due to shutting down of sngs for the official report
shows that during the week. ships of all nationates
arrived II British ports and 2-s2 saneu.
Surprise due to the fact that increasingly greater
destruction had been expected with the coming of spring
when less frequent the North sea and ada
cent waters and when submarine operations are therefore
easier.
The for the decrease is not plain II NAV be
because of natural lu in operations though that is hard
to believe because Gemanys hopes for quick conclusion
of the based continued submarine successes or
it may be due to the of the allied fleets IN com
batting submarines It is reported that than 100
submarines have been put of action by the British
navy. American seamen have put the bottom of
the ocean and Of destroyrs has had brush with
another Close patrong and ncessant bounding of the
submarines may have their effect despite natural ad
vantage which the Uboat have in being able travel in
concealment and to attack from ambush.
