Russia SUM Leading
In Submarine Power
LONDON Wl Britain's author
itative naval yearbook, Jane's
Fighting Ships, says the Soviet
Union's submarine fleet still is by
far the world's largest although it
appears to be the same size as
a year ago.
The 1952-53 yearbook, published
yesterday, reported the same
number of Russian undersea craft
as in its last edition 370 afloat
and 120 others being built. Jane's
acknowledged, however, that So
viet military security limited the
exactness of the information.
Jane's reported the U. S. Navy's
"colossal fighting force" is the
largest peacetime fleet ever main
tained by any country as big as
all the other navies of the world
combined.
The U. S. Submarine force of 200
ships, however, was grealty out
classed by the Russians. Britain's
subs were listed at about 50.

Some bankers, however, fret
over the dangers they see in the

First, they worry about the rate

in the past six years, while in the
six years before 1929 it rose only
40 per cent.
And the last three years have
seen the sharpest rise in debt.
