Following the Navys disclosure
that a German submarine had been
sunk by an American destroyer in
the Atlantic and a Japanese sub
marine destroyed in the Pacific by
the armed guard crew of an Amer
lean merchantman. Secretary of
the Navy Knox stated that although
our merchant ship sinkings were
less last month than the month
before, and although no doubt there
have been other U-boat sinkings by
Allied forces, the submarine most
emphatically" is still Il very grave
menace. All measures that we
know that could help reduce the
submarine menace are being used,
Mr.. Knox said, but there is nothing
on which to predicate any hope for
early stOppage or cure. The day
before, the Navy had announced
serious lOss-the submarine sink
ing of two passenger-cargO ships in
the North Atlantic with $50 casual
ties. both civilian and service per-
sonnel-more than 500 of the 900
aboard the first vessel and more
