QUESTION OF SHIPS,
LORD PERCY SAYS
War Resolved Into Problem
Of Outbuilding Sub
Destruction.
(By Assoclated Press.l


Washington, May /. The United
States has already placed consider
able amount OF tonnage at the disposal
of the entente allies. Eustace Percy,
ship expert with the British mission,
said today that the government had
supplied certain vessels to be used ac-
cording to the allies needs, but refused
to indicate what they were or If they
were the German ships. ah
Can Maintain Pace.
Lord Percy declared that the present
rate of British construction of ships
and the present estimated American
rate could not keep pace with the pres
ent rate OF destruction by submarines.
THE balancing in the world figures,
said Lord Percy, 'is the supply the
United States can make"
Pool All Resources.
Lord Percy's announcement was the
first intimation that the shipping con-
ferences have actually resulted in any
agreement in which the present tom
mage and the future building powers Of
this country will be pooled with the
allies to defeat the German submarine
menace.
Lord Percy said the British commis-
sion have supplied the American gov
ernment with every phase of the ship
ping problems, inchuding the shipping
destroyed. Tho American saippina
board, he said, had sh0Mn the heaytfeSs
cooperation.
Shipping Issue Dominates.
"The shipping issue" said Lord
Percy, dominates everything else and
is very grave indeed. Both the present
shipping constructed and the Amer
lean construction cannot keep pace
with the tonnage destroyed. Both must
be speeded up If the seas are to be kept
open The war has resolved itself into
whether we can supply more. shipping
than is being destroyed"
