Successes.

London, March 6.-Sir Eric Geddes
first lord of the admiralty, in address.
ing the house of commons, declared
that Great Britain and America are
sinking enemy submarines as fast as
they are built"
Naval warfare is increasingly In
our favor" Geddes said.
I'VE have placed a trans-channel
surface barrage to obstruct submar.
ines. More than 100 patrol boats are
employed in this.
Foe Exasgerates Successes.
I'm the Mediterranean conditions
are more difficult and the anti-sub-
marine campaign is correspondingly
less satisfactory.
Despite glowing newspaper accounts
from America, it will be considerable
time before the necessary output of
tonnage is secured.
Germany is greatly exaggerating
der successes-in one month as much
as 70 per cent
There is no reason to alter my
opinion that the menace Is held, but
not mastered.
The chances of a submarine re-
turning from the North Atlantic, the
channel of the North sea, are one In
four or five.
