of the House, but has served two

in the North Sea have accounted for
most of the 16 ships sunk or dam
aged in the last five days.
The latest developments in the Eu-
ropean sea warfare suggested these
tentative conclusions to qualified ex-
perts:
1. The recent heavy shipping losses
are due to the numbers of the mines,
and to their free drift, rather than
to the perfection of revolutionary
new undersea weapons.
2. Virtually all Of the mines have
been laid by submarines built for
the purpose.

difficulties calculated to tax British
and French means of keeping open
vital commerce lanes.

German fight to create a counter
blockade has not differed basically
