French Naval Expert Believes
Sea Fleets More Desirable
Than Aircraft.
by NEWTON c. PARKE.

PARIS, March 1O.-The American
naval policy of constructing a big
surface fleet instead of relying upon
submarines and airplanes was de-
Tended as wise and proper today by
Pierre Dupuy, president of the naval
committee of the French Chamber of
Deputies, In an interview with the
International News Service
"The United States is right in con-
structing a big surface fleet and not
relying upon submarines and air
planes. which are valuable only as
auxiliaries," said Dupuy.
Nothing in the history of the re-
cent war and nothing indicated by
science for the future prove that bat
tleships and cruisers are obsolete
However, four 15,000-ton ships are to
be preferred to one 60, 900 ton warship,
on the principle that nation should
not put all its naval eggs in one
basket.
81 cannot deny the Importance of
the role the German submarines
played early in the war, sinking a
large number of isolated ships and
thus interfering with the supplies
and transports. But the same condi-
tions did not exist at the end of the
war.
AT the end Of the conflict the allies
were rendering efficacious service
against the German submarines. The
frequent destruction OF the under

water craft had the crews democrat
lied.
what, you ask, can the submarine
do in the future against merchant
men armed with rapid-fre, long range
guns and defended by airplanes and
warships.
Il do not believe that submarine
cruisers can change the situation. They
are unwieldly to maneuver and would
expose themselves to enemy warships
and airplanes. Furthermore the navi-
cation of big submarines has not been
perfected. This was proved by the recent
loss of the British submarine KS with
the loss of fifty-five lives.
''The submarine has advantages as a
weapon of attack while escorting war
ships, but when isolated is doomed to
fight or destruction before hostile men
of war and airplanes Progress in sci
ence has made it easy to detect the
presence of submarines.
AT the beginning of the war the al
lies made the mistake of navigating in
disposed order. Later when ships were
REINFORCED by destroyers and airplanes
they moved in groups along secret
routes and the danger of being tor
podoed was reduced to practically
nothing. Look back for instance to the
manner in which United States trans
ports brought the great American army
across the Atlantic in safety. Those
vessels came in groups.
France contemplates for 1921 the
construction of six middle-sized cruisers,
twelve destroyers and twelve sub
marines. We believe that is sufficient
for this year"
The Washington times., 1921-03-10

the risk of their lives should all do
something to help her.
II hope the people of Washington
will respond to this worthy cause to
such an extent that Mrs. Bradley will
be relieved Of all worry to the
immediate future"
