Sea Losses. Then and Now
lCleveland Plain Dealerl


 While alarming the losses sustained by the ship the depredations of German submarines and raiders are far from sufficient to starve the British into submission On the basis of the destruction wrought in two months of war Germany cannot win the conflict the high seas.
 So far reports indicate 399,319 tons of ship ping of all nations have been sent to the bottom. This is a scale similar to that in the last four months of 19l6-before the unrestricted submarine campaign was launched-when 632 900 tons were scuttled
 unrestricted from the beginning. Today she has 59 submarines (ninus those sunk by the British compared to B in the early years of the World War. That she has not been able to give better account in terms of allied and neutral losses is due prob ably to the effectiveness of the convoy system and better anti-submarine defense.
 Until all restrictions were removed on February | 1917 the average monthly loss of shipping had been 17500O tons. When submarine commanders were given a free hand the figure rose to 526000 tons month for British shipping alone and S6700o tons for all shipping, British. allied and neutral. Britain then was in real danger. Ships were being sunk three or four times fast new ones could be constructed. But at that time the convoy sys- tenn was perfected and the losses stemmed. Germany had failed in her greatest gamble on the high seas
 If Germany cannot do better than the record to date with almost twice the number of submarines at her command there is little hope for success now. She probably can continue to harass allied and neu- tral shipping but not to the point where it will be effective in cripplng either Britans supply of raw materials or foodstuffs

ting themselves in position to meet whatever finan cial and economic burden war may impose.
 Before the month old the colonial de- pendences of Great Britain had moved far toward basis Canada for example, had increased per- sonal and corporate income taxes and had levied an excess profits tax as well. Foreign exchange resric tions had been imposed to conserve buying power and thus to place considerations of national defense ahead of those of individual profit
 Economic and financial mobilization is less spec acular than gigantic military operations but if the history of the World War is criterion the side which has the economic strength in the present conflict is the one which in the end will be victorious. World War history also demonstrates the effectiveness of the blockade, upon which to this time the Allied goy ernments have placed the heaviest emphasis. When account taken of the fact that the German economy has been virtually a basis for six years and that her reserves of materials and supplies we'll depleted before Poland invaded it is not difficult to understand why, on the one hand, the Allied gov ernments at this juncture wagng economic war and why from week to week Hitler presents him. self an emissary of peace.

ALASKA PROGRESS AND THE CAA

Almost unnoticed. Federal agency new to Alaska has instituted a Sl,O0OOoO construction program in the Territory. The Civil Aeronautics Authority is quietly laying the backbone here for system of aids to aerial navigation which will give Alaska airway facilities comparable to those in the States.
 For the past week, three of the unassuming, businesslike men who are carrying out this mpor- tant program have been visitors in Juneau Marshall C. Hoppn Superintendent of Arways, is the director of CAA work in Alaska. He was accompanied here from Anchorage headquarters by Benton Davis Sen ior Inspector, Flight Both Hoppn and Davis belong to the Bureau of Federal Airways branch of the CAA The other Aeronautcs man in Juneau has been J. M Beardslee Civil Engineer.
 These men and the other CAA personnel in AL aska are constructing this year eight simultaneous range broadcast stations six ponttopoint communi- cations stations and five emergency landing fields. The range stations are to be located at Ketchikan, Juneau Yakutat Cordova, Anchorage, Fairbanks Ruby and Nome Communications stations will be at Wran- gelI skagway Sitka Yakataga, Takeetna and Can't well The emergency landing fields are being built at Cantwell Takeetna Yakataga, Koyuk and Tol- ovana
 This is just one years development remember In succeeding years the Authority will its air aids farther and farther along the transportation routes of the Territory
 In addition, it has been announced that the CAA will assume operation and maintenance of the Terri torys major meteorological radio stations about January L Now operated by the Alaska Aeronautics and Communications Commission these stations located at Ketchikan. Juneau, Cordova Anchorage Fairbanks and Nome They have cost the Territory approximately 5000 per month to operate
 The CAA is doing wonderful work in Alaska, a country depending because of it's vast and rugged terrain, very heavily upon arplane communication. The plane in the past decade has been probably the most important factor in the advance of Alaska With the new assistance being given by the Civil Aeronautcs Authority further progress in the future assured. Alaska is grateful to the CAA. The Authority is helping the Territory keep its date with destiny.

 Benefic aspects rule during the morning hours today. The sway seems to encourage unity of thought along national and international lines. Under this configuration per sons in authority command confi- dence. It should be fortunate date for naval and military officers as well as for government heads.
 Heart and Home: Women should keep in the background while this configuration prevails, but it is good time for men who are trying to make the best of a world in chaos. Thrift is enioined, but the tempta- ton to spend lavishly for holiday gifts will be general One should make the most of the coming Christ mas since civilization is undergoing changes of grave consequence.
 Business Affairs. Trade will be lively and unemployment will de- crease. Profiteering will bring wealth to persons who know how to evade the laws which exist to protect the public. Food prices will soar and the high cost of living will be wide ly discussed. Women will prepare for new types of employment as part of the national preparedness for war.
 National Issues: Sharp differences of opinion on neutrality will con tinue to harass statesmen, but the stars indicate that history is to re- peat itself. Defense of democracy by the United States may become imperative if the European conflict continues for any length of time. The war may take an unexpected turn and push domestic politics into the shade. Evil portents are dis cerned for the close of the year
 International Affairs: Rumania, Hungary and the Near East are sub ject to evil omens Germany and Italy are under a planetary direc- tion that seems to threaten their relations. A major political crisis in France is indicated for next month. The West Indies will reflect the crises in Europe.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of more than average prosperity but there may be treachery in certain business transactions. Health should be safe guarded.
