which are vital to her very. exist
ence.
Should Britain continue to MAIN
tain unbroken her Atlantic Sea
lanes and supply routes, it will
permit her successfully to resist
the German onslaught. AS preser-
walton of British sea power in the
present war is as vital to the
United States as to Great Britain,
it was evident that we could not
ignore her very pressing present
needs-eXcept at our own ultimate
peril.
The existing critical situation,
therefore. called for our immediate
and maximum help in every posi-
BILE way. This naturally includes
not only the replacement of mer-
chant ship losses in such numbers
as available ships permit, but more
particularly the transfer OF all
over age destroyers, mosquito boats
and all other available anti-sub-
marine craft which can be spared
in order to provide additional es-
corts for the protection of conveys
and fight off the underwater en-
envy.
True, we have already trans
ferred nearly 800 cargo ships (of
approximately 1,250,000 tons) to
Britain or her friendly neutral
countries. and are now building
200 cargo carriers earmarked fol-
British use. Nevertheless, more
and still more ships are needed
However, this takes time. The
most effective way of helping al
the moment, therefore, is to aug
ment the number of escorts fol
her conveys and thus cut dowr
merchant ship losses.

Send Mosquito Boats

In addition to the old destroy
ers mentioned our navy also has
numerous newly constructed mos
quito boats and other small craft
capable of attacking submarines
which are now coming off the
mass production lines. The trans
fer of some of these. also, is un-
doubtedly one of the matters un'
der advisement.
Though the shortage in tonnage
primarily concerns British nier-
chant craft, it is incontestably
true that the British navy also is
particularly deficient in vessels
capable of performing escort
duty with conveys to combat the
German long-range bombers and
U-boats. This was clearly indi-
Gated in the disclosure that dur
ing the recent passage of Cana
dian troops to the British Isles
the convoy was protected by "a
feet of many flags"-including
units of the Allied navies as well
as those of the British and Cana
dian naval forces.

Destroyer Backbone

No better method of protecting
seaborne commerce has yet been
devised. Enemy attackers are
forced to approach within striking
distance of escort vessels and
therefore are exposed to counter
attack. The success of conveys,
however, depends upon the relative
strength of the escorting force and
the continuance of its protection
through the danger zone.
AS in World War No. /, so in
the present war. the speedy and
easily handled destroyer - fitted
with rapid-fire and anti-aircraft
guns, depth bombs and modern de-
/ lection apparatuS-continues to be
the backbone of strong convoy.
Its defensive weapons spell death
to U-boats, even though today the
latter are more sturdily built, are
provided with better underwater
listening devices, and have a much
greater cruising radius. They are
still very vulnerable to gunfire,
depth charges, mines and aircraft.
During World War Number /
the United States provided de-
stroyers for 81 per cent of con-
voys as well as IS per cent of the
cruisers necessary to Allied ships
and troop transports in the At
lantic. Today Great Britain has
available only rs per cent of the
number of destroyers she had at
that time, and a much smaller
flotilla of submarine patrol ships.
The strain on the royal navy,
therefore. is terrific at present,
because of this lack of destroyers.
Invaluable Support
In consequence. our World War
destreyers will be invaluable for
British purposes. nor will their
transfer decrease either the Of
fensive or defensive strength of
our navy, now or in the future.
The transfer of some of our mos
quito boats will also be a great
help, not only to the anti-sub-
marine defense in general. but to
convoy protection in particular.
Though Germany is reported to
be building a fleet of small fast
U-boats to be manned with sui
eide crews" the threat is not as
serious as it sounds. And for the
very good reason that though mass
production undoubtedly may be
accomplished. to man them by suf-
ficiently skilled officers and crews
is quite a different kettle of fish"
This'is the .bottleneck which con-
siderably will reduce the useful
ness. of this type, even thought
"swarms" of such boats are built.
Only the more daring and skilled
U-boat commanders carry out Sue
cessful attacks against strong con-
voys. as is evidenced by the rec
ordS of World War Number l. |
These show that so per cent OF
submarine sinkings was accom-
plished by less than s per cent
of the German U-boat COM
manderS
