BRITISH OUTPUT
OF MUNITIONS IS
SATISFACTORY In
FACE OF BATTLE.
Churchill SaysGreat Losses
and Expenditure Al
ready Made Good

London. April 2s.-Winston spen-
Ger Churchill introducing in the
house Of commons yesterday the
estimates for the ministry Of muni-
IONS OF which he Is the head, said
that during the five weeks since the
battle in France had opened they had
been passing through the greatest
strain regarding the supply OF war
material that had occurred in the
experience Of the ministry.
Not only had the consumption and
destruction OF munitions OF all kinds
been proceeding at the greatest rate,
but there also were very heavy
losses By capture by the enemy.
We lost" the minister said, near
" a thousand guns by she'll fire or
capture; between 1000 and 5000 ma
chine guys have been lost or destroy
ed. anI the quantity OF ammunition,
apart from that which has been fired
and that which has been lost in the
dplnps amounted to something be-
%Seen one and three weeks total Of
manufacture.
other war materials have been
used or lost in a great variety OF
classes and on q similar scale, but by
the end OF last week all the losses
had been made good and in many
cases more than made good.
Potential Output Not Exceeded.
Vast quantities of small arm am
munition have been lost or left be-
dinds but great as the demand has
been. the expenditures in the last
month did not exceed the maximum
potential capacity OF the British fac
tories. without touching enormous
reserves which had accumulated
against such a contingency. The
Wastage OF rifles was very great, but
the losses were quite easily and
promptly made good.
Our preparedness had contem-
plated a period OF supreme battle in
tensity from the third week OF Feb
ruary instead OF from the third week
OF March. so we are at present from
one to three weeks to the good
Those calculations allowed the artil-
lery to IRE during the whole fighting
season a considerably heavier vol
ume OF shells than was expended
weekly during the offensive battles
Of last year, and more than double
the volume Of shells fired during the
terrific bombardment which charac-
terizsd the Somme offensive Of 1916.
They also provided for the carrying
forward into 1919 OF sufficient re-
serves to allow the British total to
mount one step higher than in pow
er and intensity.
In fact. barring unforeseen cir
cumstances our supply Of munitions
would enable us to carry on q battle
at the supreme pitch OF intensity un-
til winter without comprising our
requirement for 1919. This IS despite
the fact that a hundred thousand
