planes and small patrol boats can

Americas direct reply to the sub
marine menace has been an effec-
tive reply. When the critic of our
shipbuilding progress points out
that we are not building merchant
ships fast enough TO overcome our
losses, he OverloOks the fact that
we are evidently building navy yes
sells fast enough to overcome the
ause of our losses. OF the two
ways OF multiplying the submarine
campaign. we have put the strength
of our effort into the quicker. the
less costly. the more practical way.
1t is necessary to build merchant
vessels. and they are being built;
but il is necessary also TO build "A
fleet TO protect merchant vessels.
and ii was wiser to devote our first
efforts TO that end, even if Il limited
our power TO turn out a merchant
marine fast enough TO recoup our
first losses. AS time goes on, it be-
comes more md more apparent
that we have done right in devoting
a considerable part of our ship

our first line of defense"
In the same way, critics Of our
war progress are advocating the
melted-butter program in our fight
against food-shortages. 1t is argued
that instead of adopting measures
Of food control and food conserva-
ton and price-txing. we should
have devoted all our efforts to en-
courasing an increase of food pro-
duction, allowing the greater prices
TO stimulate greater crops.
As matter of fact. il is not the
case that the American farmer has
been discouraged in the planting of
winter wheat. Re has seeded. this
year. 100000 acres of winter
wheat That is 100000 acres more
than ever before in history, and
1000. 900 acres more than his aver
age acreage before the war. The
increase over the pre-war prices
has been 81 per cent in the case
OF wheat and only l09 per cent in
the case Of corn. Difficulties in
transportation have altered the re-
lation of these prices in some local
ities-especialiy in the east-but for
the farmer generally the price OF
wheat has been consistently higher
than the price of corn.

and SO of the largest of these yes
sells we're repaired and i'm commits
sion within six months More than
200 privately owned vessels have
been taken over to be fitted for nav
al use. on account of the demands
upon steel construction, several
hundred submarine chasers have
been built of wood. and these are
driven by three 200-horse-power
sasoline engines because it was
found impossible to obtain steam
power plants for them rapidly
enough. Many Of these boats have
crossed the Atlantic in the stormiest
weather and proved themselves SUI
perior to any other kind Of wooden
ship for work against the U-boat
The new Ford patrol boats named
the Eagles, are considerably lar
ger than the submarine chasers:
they correspond TO the earlier de-
stroyers. Included in the building
program are more than 500 small
boats. being built at navy yards and
private yards. Altogether, there are
already four times as many VESSELS
in naval service as there were a year
ago, and the number is growing con-
stantly.
OF all these. of course. the most
important in the U-boat war is the
large and fast destroyer. At first.
there was not a vacant way in the
country upon which destroyer
could be built In many yards. there
was no ground for such way.
New keels have been laid where d
few months ago there were swamps.
New shops have been built for max
ing forgings, for building boilers and
engines. pumps forced-draft blow
ers and every important part of
machinery equipment. Recently a
destroyer was built. tested put in
commission and sent TO set within
nfty-one weeks from the time its
keel was laid. II steamed from a

The reports from enc detachment
OF destroyers show that in a six
month period the boats have been
5000 days at sea. that they have
steamed more than a million miles
i'm the war zone. that they have es-
corted az single vessels and SO
conveys. and that they have at
