The race for supremacy between the

story was told. in. figures only, before

had succeeded in sinking sixty-on
During 1917 the Germans built and
commissioned seventy-one submarine.
and the Allies sank fifty-four. At the
beginning of 1918 the Germans had
172 submarines in active service. From
that time until November l they built
seventy-one additional, while the Al
lied naves succeeded in sinking seven
ty-two.
THE result CT the gradual increase
in sinkings was that the German naval
morale blew up" said Captain Stirling
Speaking of the effect of the entry
of the United States into the war, Cap
tain Stirling said The system of con
Noying merchant ships had not been
rut into operation, and the sinking OF
merchant tonnage was almost half q
million tons month.
In June, 1917, the British conceded
the convoy system, and it went into
operation. Up to that time they had
been afraid of putting all their eggs
in one basket The effect of the convoy
system was an Immediate reduction in
the number of sinkings."
Referring to the navy's part in trans
porting the army overseas Captain
Stirling said: "The transport system
started from nothing under Vice AID
miral Gleaves. Az the time the arms
tice ~~s signed transport conveys of
fifty SHIPS were carrying over two COM
plete divisions at a time"

power was one of the most decisive
instruments in history, and should
