his trip abroad they consulted him in pref
erence to General Pershing. It is not sug-
gested that General Wood pushed himself
forward or attempted to undermine his
superior. Nor is it suggested that General
Pershing was jealous of his subordinate
officer. The situation was embarrassing to
both officers. There couldn't be two heads
to the American forces in France. There
had to be one.
If this is the case it would appear to be
a happy solution to send General Wood to
Italy to command the American forces
which will be sent there.

number of torpedoes carried in one
submarine. The number ranges from
four to twelve. according TO the type
OF submarine The U-53. which raided
shipping of the Atlantic coast of the
United States. carried ten. More re-
cent types load as many as twelve.
Mine layers can accommodate two.
four and six, depending on their
size.
In connection with this shortage is
the interesting fact that all U-boat
commanders now are strictly ''ra-
toned" as far as their supply of tor
pedoes is concerned and are not per
mitted 10 waste torpedoes on long
chance shots" except under circum-
stances which they must explain in
detail as justifying the expenditure Of
the precious underwater missiles.
Recently the German factories have
been turning out a smaller torpedo
which is less accurately tested. but
which may be used with a fair degree
of certainty at close range. OF late
very few German torpedoes have
proved effective unless at fairly close
range, and it has become unusual for
a U-boat commander 70 make any at
tempt at a merchant ship unless he
can get within 500 or 600 yards.
The Germans are now using two
types of torpedoes. They may be de-
Scribed as short-eharge and full
charge torpedoes. The short charge
is the one used mostly against mer-
chant shipping and is fired at 500 to
500 yards. The full charge, which
has probably twice the destructive
force and is better made, is reserved
for men-of-war. 1t is fired at great
er distance and is used less frequently
than the cheaper torpedo.
But the comparative immunity of
the American destroyer from torpedo
attack-despite the loss of the Jacob
Jones and the slight disablement of
the Cassin-is noteworthy in this
connection. The Germans hate the
American destroyers as one of their
worst enemies in their most fertile
field of action, and there is scarcely
an American destroyer but has had
one or more German torpedoes fired
at her. yet only twice have the tor
pedoes found their mark.
The Americans and the British,
with whom they are cooperating so
successfully in this game of hunting
tin fish," attribute their immunity to
the mobility of the destroyer. The
alertness of the American naval men,
coupled with their well known keen
ness for offensive tactics against the
submarine. have been responsible foI
their slight losses. Sharp lookOuts
and skiilful maneuVering enable them
to cheat the Germans so otter
