The War
TODAY
Coast Cleared
Of Axis Subs
Within q Year
By WILLIAM. UMSTEAD

Just a year after the first
United Nations merchant ves-
sci was torpedoed in American
waters. U-boats have been
driven far from United States
coastal waters. but a study Of
sinkings shows today that
marsuding submarines far at
sea still are one of this na-
tions most perplexing prob
lens.
According 10 naval records,
a German submarine on Jan.
il, 1912, slipped through the
Atlantic to within TOO mics
of New York and blasted the
Allied tanker Coimbra, which
sank the following day.
The attack marked the be.
ginning of a series Of raids on
coastal shipping from Maine
To the mouth of the Missls-
sippi River which disrupted
supply lines TO South Amer
lea. During the first few
months the subs operated
boldly almost within sight of
American shores.
THESE SINKlNGS reached
their peak in June, when rs
United Nations vessels were
sunk along the Atlantic Coast,
the Caribbean and the Gulf of
Mexico. Since then the attacks
in these areas have dropped
sharply TO a low of two in De-
cember, while raids far at sea
have increased.
Naval leaders are hopeful
that eventually they will have
enough escort vessels TO in
sure safe passage of all car
goes, but it is not secret in
the nations capital that u
boat raids hundreds of miles
off United States and South
American shores still are a
major problem.
Recently Admiral Harold r.
Stark, commander of United
States naval forces in the
European theater. said that
the U-boats "are our greatest
problem" and that our ship
ping losses are discomfort
ing"
USING BASES along the
French coast, the German sub
marines are in much better
position to slash at American
and British supply lines than
they were in World War /, and
the Nazi sub fleet is believed
10 be growing despite persis-
tent counterattacks.
Gravity of the submarine
menace is indicated by the
fact that the navy alone has
announced the sinking of SIS
United Nations merchant YES
sells. This total does not in
clude other sinkings of British
and Allied ships whose surviv-
ors never touched American
ports.
Of this total, approximately
312 ships were sunk off the
Atlantic Coast, in the Carib-
bean and the Gulf of Mexico.
A breakdown Of this figure.
by months, shows clearly how
antisubmarine warfare drove
the U-boats to safer hunting
grounds far al sea.

out that all transportation and

Rogell, however. backed away
from Detroit's argument and said
he has not yet been convinced that
a change would hinder war pro-
duction.
