 Many experts say this is an ir- reducable minimum. A further cargo ship reduction would pinch the British people and reduce the munitions of war to the danger point. That, however, is debatab.c, although few experts doubt that the danger point is near.

It may also explain why we suddenly de- cided to extend our sea patrols.
