Submarine Menace

Says in Broadcast

As War Progresses

The United Nations have not
beaten the submarine menace yet,
Rear Admiral Emory S. Land, war
shipping administrator, told a radio
audience from luncheon which he
attended yesterday afternoon at
2400 Sixteenth street NV. No
matter how many ships are built
for the purpose of hauling war sup
plies there never will be enough, he
added.
This global war" he continued,
lis a war of long distances for
ocean transport. Nothing we have
experienced in the past is even re-
motely comparable with it. The
more men we transport overseas, the
more fighting fronts where our
forces and those of our Allies are in
action, the more areas where we
must meet the obligation of car
ing for civilian populations, the
more ships we must have in opera
ton. We must keep them constantly
on the move at the peak of their
efficiency. Our overseas transporta-

have more ships, but we will have
more jobs to do

for the audience the great volume
Of goods which will be handled by
