GERMAN WARSHIPS
ACTIVE ON SEAS

London, Oct. 27-(UP)-Two Ger
man warships are operating as sea
raiders in the Atlantic ocean but so
far have sunk only two British ships,
the Evening News reported today.
The two warships were named as
the pocket battleship Admiral Scheer
and Deutschland, both Of about
10000 tons and both so heavily
armed and speedy that only battle
ships could safely attack them.
The possibility that big British or
French warships would undertake to
run down the sea raiders was sub
jet of speculation in view of the
danger created for allied shipping In
the North and South Atlantic.
Both pocket battleships have been
In the Atlantic since September 80,
the Evening News said, citing dates
and localities In connection with re-
ports Of their operations. Each was
credited with sinking one merchant
ship. Prime Minister Neville Cham
berlain announced yeterday that the
Deutschland had sunk the steamer
Stonegate, but there was no official
confirmation Of the Admiral Scheer's
operations.

land or Holland and Belgium. or
all three.
They held that the Germans had
lost their one advantage-surprise--
by failing to attack in force at the
beginning of the war as they did in
1914. Now, it was said, the French
were prepared at all points.
