 LONDON, April 16.-Admiral Sir John Jellicoe, former con- nander of the British grand fleet and now first sea lord, informed the Associated Press that small craft from destroyers to tugs would be the most useful contri- button the United States could make to the war against German submarines. The first sea lord as- serted that the best hunting ground for submarines is on this side of the water, as the possibil- ity of German submarines operat- ing on the American coast is all most negligible, unless they have a base on that side.
 'I have no desire to minimize to the American people the seri- ous situation prevailing as the re- suit of the illegal use of subma- rines by the Germans" said the -driral. neither is it easy for us to take them into our confidence and tell them just what we are doing to cope with the evil with out providing the Germans with useful information. No methods existed in the past for fighting the submerged submarine. New in ventions and processes take time to develop. We are giving your navy all the information in our possession. Knowing its record we have great confidence that American inventive genius will supplement it with valuable con- tributions.
