WAR ON U-B0ATS
STILL SUCCESSFUL
August Finds More Under.
sea Raiders Sunk Than
Merchant Ships

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10. -(P)-
The Office of War Information re-
ported tonight that August was
another successful month in u
boat warfare" and that more u
boats were sunk than merchant
ships.
Despite a relentless search by
Allied surface and air forces, Owl
said opportunities for attacking
submarines were comparatively
few because the enemy made viz
tually no attempt to attack North
Atlantic shipping.
The announcement was issued
through a joint arrangement with
the British Ministry of Informa-
ton after consultation with the
British Admiralty, United States
Navy and Canadian Department
of National Defense for Naval Ser
vices.
eve are ready to attack the en-
envy with utmost vigor should he
provide the opportunity by resum-
ing a general attack on our ship
ping with the very large number
of U-boats at his disposal" the
announcement concluded.
1t was the first report on the
battle of the Atlantic since Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Prime Minis
ter Churchill disclosed that 80 u
boats had been destroyed IN the
months of May, June and July
record of almost one a day.
Text of the announcement:
81. August has been another Sue
cessful month in U-boat warfare.
Owing perhaps to rearmament and
other causes, there appear to have
been fewer Uboats at sea than in
recent months, and shipping loss
es have continued to decrease.

Proper Alliances May Create Sovereignty

acts and things which Independent
lish commerce, and do all other
states may of right do" So un-
less we wish to argue that the
signers of the Declaration of In
American Revolution, and the
founders of the Republic, did not
know what sovereignty is, we must
cease to say that we lose our
sovereignty if we contract an al
lance.
Having declared the right, they
proceeded to exercise it. On Feb
ruary 6, 1778, in Paris the Amerl-
can commissioners, Franklin,
Deane and Lee, signed a treaty
of alliance with France, and on
May 4, 1778, the Continental Con-
gress ratified it. 1t would have
helped clarity the discussion at

nv WALTER LIPPMANN

On the question of sovereignty
which has quite properly b e e n
raised at the Mackinac conference,
none has better right to be heard
than the men who made out Of 10
British colonies sovereign ma
ton. In the concluding paragraph
of the Declaration of Independ-
ence they stated their views in
plain language. They said that
the right to contract alliances is
the very hallmark of a sovereign
or, as they called it, Of a free and
Independent state.
The declaration says h t the
united colonies as free and
independent states have full
power to level war, conclude
peace, contract alliances, estab-

ly we are to conclude that the
method of alliances is the one eff
fective form of international Or
ganization which preserves SOW
ereignty.
All the other approaches to an
organized security pose a bad di-
lemma. If we begin by setting
up another league of nations, this
choice will present itself: if the
members collectively can declare
war on an aggressor, then, if we
are outvoted, we have surrendered
our free and independent judg-
ment on the fateful issue Of going
to war; if each nation reserves
the right to veto the decision of
the league. then the league is i'm

Big Armada
Said Moving.
On Albania
Germans Hurriedly Trying
To Replace Former AL
lies On Coast
REPORTED BY SWISS
No Confirmation Noted On
Story About New Inva-
sion Thrust

LONDON, Sept. 1o.-(P)
The Gemans hurriedly re-
placed their fallen Italian AL
lies all along the Adriatic
coast today and Swiss reports
said that a huge Allied inva-
sion armada was moving
through the Ionian sea to-
ward Albania.
There was nothing to con-
firm or deny the Swiss report
that the armada was headed
towards the tiny former land
of King Fog, and any force
ploughing through the Ionian
sea might just as we'll be 60
ing to Greece, Yugoslavia -
or, with the Italian navy
knocked out and the German
air force hard-pressed from
the west, could be moving
through the straits of Taran-
to for landings on the east
coast of the boot.
Would Be Inviting Move
Such a move would be particu-
larly inviting now that the Allies
have seized the big base of Taran-
to, inside the Italian heel.
There seems to be no doubt that
the Germans are trying desper-
aiely to take up the sudden slack
in their Balkan defenses, which
developed when Italy folded, but
there is considerable doubt wheth-
er they would be able to do this
effectively and quickly.
Inc German news agency DNB
claimed that the Nazis had seized
the Albanian ports of Valona and
Durazzo and the town of Elbason
and the Yugoslav port of Ragusa
and that the Italians had been
disarmed up and down the entire
Adriatic coast.
The Swiss report, quite likely,
was a nervous shot in the dark,
inspired by the feverish German
efforts to decide which way the
pieces are falling, but then. there
is no question that the whole Ioni-
an and Adriatic shores were open
ed by the swift removal of the
Italian fleet.
Chief fact supporting the specu-
lations is the continuing lack OF
reports from the American Sew
enth Army, which participated in
the invasion of Sicily, but may,
however, show up farther north
OH the western side of the PENN
sula. The chief argument against
it is the immense logistical task
OF keeping three Or more often
sives going at one time over such
widespread communication lines.
Albania. itself, is not particular
~ attractive as a target for an
invader since of its four ports,
purazzo, Valona, San Giovanni and
Porto Edda, only the first is well
equipped. Communication general
ly are bad in the country and in
many places, where the mountains
don't reach down to the shore
line, there are marshy malarial
lowlands.

Mackinac if some one had laid
before it the text of that alliance.
For article two says that 1.-The
essential and direct end of the
present defensive alliance is to
maintain effectually the liberty,
sovereignty and independence abb
solute and unlimited, of the said
United States, as well in matters
of government as of commerce.
This shows that the Founding
Fathers knew that an alliance, if
properly set up, is not only no
surrender of sovereignty but may
be a necessary means to win SOW
ereignty or to preserve it.
W may say, too, I believe, that
the more closely we study our own
history and examine the facts Of
international life, the more like

Spitzbergen Island

German Navy Force

LONDON, Sept. 0.-(R-The
truant German fleet, which
the British and American ma
vies long have been trying to
bring to blows, .stormed into
action in force against the tiny,
valiant garrison of Spitsber-
gen Wednesday, the Norwe-
gian high command reported
tonight in a communique.
The official report did not
make clear whether any Ger
mans remained after the raid
on the island, 600 miles east Of
Greenland. Neither did it say
whether any of the small Nor
Wegian force stationed there
escaped.
Both the Norwegian report
and a broadcast by the Ger
man news agency DNB said
the defenders put up stout re-
sistance. The DNB report said
the attack was made to de-
stroy the meteorological sta
ton which had been aiding
Russian conveys and seemed
to indicate no Germans were
left behind as a garrison. A
German broadcast last night
said Nazi naval units aided by
marines had caused heavy cas-
ualties among the islands
holding forces and taken pris-
0ners.
An Allied force raided the
island two years ago after the
Germans had set a meteorOIo-
gical station there soon after
the war started.

There was no mention of TIA

ut has fallen to you in the
hour of your country's agony
to take the first decisive
steps to win peace and free
dom for the Italian people
and to win back for Italy an
honorable place in the civili-
zation of Europe.
"You have already freed
your country from Fascist
servitude. There remains the
even more important task of
clearing the Italian soil from
the German invaders. Hitler,
through his accomplish, Mus
solini, has brought Italy to
the verge of ruin. He has
driven the Italians into disas-
trous campaigns in the sands
of Egypt and the SHOWS of
Russia. The Germans have
always deserted the Italian
troops on the battlefield,
sacrificing them contemptu-
ously in order to cover their
own retreats. Now Hitler
threatens to subject you to
all the cruelties he is perpe-
trating in so many lands.
"Now is the time for every
italian to strike his blow.
The liberating armies of the
western world are coming to
your rescue. We have very
strong forces at many points.
The German terror in Italy
will not last long. They will
be extirpated from your land
and you, by helping in this
great surge of liberation will
place yourselves once more
among the true and long
proved friends of your coun-
try from whom you have been
so wrongully estranged.
"Take every chance you
can. Strike hard and strike

ture. All will come we'll.
