there is at present decided menace
to England's ability to keep itself
and Allies supplied with food. One
of the most effective methods t.
overcome this menace has been
found to be small surface craft arm
ed to destroy submarines.
"In providing the ships for the or.
ganization for the defense Qf ouz
coast it has besn found that with tn
exception Of 2 few Of The owners Of
yachts and motor boats it is impos-
sible to get needed vessels, either for
lease or purchase, other than 1t IN
sxorhitant sum. &
1.-THE department has inspected
approximately 600 private owned
vessels. OF these approximately 500
have been found suitable. The own
ers of 1872 have entered into agree-
ment to turn their boats over upon
notification and have been 80 notifi-
ed. The numbers are approximately
because they are changing daily.
1.-TWO weeks ago an emergency
arose that required the purchase Of
vessels suitable for mine sweeping.
There have been obtained - vessels
ct prices away beyond reason. Own
ers Of most Of the tugs and fisher
men boats suitable for this work ab-
:solutely refused to consider either
lease or purchase; others asked out
:rageous prices. Az IN example, .
fiihing vessel Was appraised for
$4,000; the owner would not sell
It for less than $4,000. The $780,
900 was more than the cost Of the
vessel.
1.-THE owners viii not sell except
at price that would amount to the
cost Of q new. boat plus the estimat-
ed amount u income for two years

lease because they are busy handing
freight or expect to make money on
fishing; some owners Of pleasure
