FOR instance, another American con-
verified yacht, based on Gibraltar, was
given credit two months after her
action with an enemy submarine for
sinking 1t. 1t was not until two
months afterward that wrecked
submarine was discovered on the
the commanding officers action re-
port
Let us say that at any given time,
In the Irish sea, the Bristol channel.
off the southwest coast of Ireland and
the west coast of France, in the Bay
of Riscay, the western Mediterranean
and off Corfu, there are twenty
enemy submarines operating. The
figures show that at least ten of the
twenty have been attacked by
American naval craft at least once
during their cruise. Let us say, fur
thermore. that 5000 allied naval
craft have been operating In the war
zone. OF that number the 374 Ameri-
can craft is less than 4 per cent. The
American naval forces have done
about 4 per cent OF the total damage
to enemy submarines. They have done
their share.
On November II, 1918, of the total
number of the allied destroyers, so
per cent were British, II per cent
were American and per cent were
French; of the total number of al
lied submarines, IS per cent were
British, II per cent were French and
S per cent were American; Of the
total number of miscellaneous patrol
craft, Sc per cent were British, Il
were American. OF the total number
of allied patrol craft operating off
the British coasts and in the eastern
Atlantic, the American craft were
less than per cent; of the total num-
Der of allied patrol ships In the
Mediterranean, American craft form
ed per cent. OF the total number
of craft in the grand feet, 81 per
cent were British and 3 per cent were
American.
In considering the disposition of
our naval forces In the war zone, let
us begin with the battleships. Since
December G, 1917, battle division 8 of
the Atlantic fleet has been operating
with the grand fleet. of which 1t was
temporarily designated as the sixth
battle squadron. 1t has been based on
the Firth of Forth off Edinburgh. and
until it was detached on December
s, 1918, 1t remained in the highest
possible state of battle efficiency, and
under four hours notice to put to
sea. 1t has co-operated with the
grand fleet in convoy operations to
the Norwegian coast. and has been
attacked six times by enemy sub
marines (the U. 8. s. New York, on
one occasion. collided with sub
marlne). Twice 1t has put to sea
expecting to engage the high sea

Forty-six American naval craft
have participated in the winning Of
these % admiralty credits; 20 OF the
40 were destroyers, 20 were subma-
rine chasers, 5 were converted yachts
and l was submarine. The only
American submarine to win admiralty
credit was the L., based on Bere-
haven. Bantry bay. Ireland. (The
American L-boats have been dis
tinguished from the British L-boats
by being designated temporarily as
AL-boats). L. won her credit In
directly. She was fred on by an
enemy submarine, but the torpedo
circled and the enemy, unable to get
out of its erratic path, was himself
sunk.
To these credits must be added six
more credits won by American naval
aircraft for slightly or seriously
damaging enemy submarines. There
must also be added credits won by
American craft in other seas. For
instance, an American converted
yacht, based on Gibraltar, has been
given credit for depth charging an
enemy submarine SO effectively that
he was compelled to intern at Santan-
der, Spain. 1t Is possible, too, that
future investigation will revise some
