GREAT DROP IN

SUBMARINES
Counter-Efforts of the Allies
Now Known to Be Prov

WASHINGTON. -. e., May TO-
Official French statistics on The sub
marine warfare. received here in d
dispatch from France to-day, show
that The total losses Of allied and
neutral ships. including accidents at
sea. were approximately one-half as
great during April this year as II
April. 1917.
In April last year 634.6S5 gross
tons were lost, while this April's fig
ures are 3S1.691. Submarine at
tacks now are more costly for the
enemy. the dispatch points out, ow-
ing to the fact that the attacks are
chiefly made with torpedoeS instead
Of gunfire, as was the case before
merchant ships were adequately and
efficiently armed.
Attention also is called to the fact
that each time the Germans have
made an offensive on land they
they made n corresponding effort
with their submarines. Thus during
the second half OF March the num-
Der and activities of submarines in
creased. The first half Of April
marked a very distinct lessening. at

allies.
