WaMwSC! 24 4 tw.Z3 Wa,! . '"-- r Canadian Navy Officer Warns Of SuL Menace , "Hitler's one and only chance ' lies in succeeding wfth his U boats in disrupting the allied sea lanes," -declared Lieut. Commander Ger ald S. Graham of the Royal Can adian "Naval college of Victoria, B. C in an address before the Rotary club Wednesday. 'Graham changed his toDic to the subma rine menace after receiving word that the. British destroyer on which he had served for a short time, had been lost in action, tor pedoed by a submarine after it had been disabled in ramming and ytnttng another sub. The recent appearance of subs off North American shores may ladies te a renewal el the German campaign close at hand," said Graham. "The new strategy of 17 boats is to travel In packs and to come close to their prey. This la necessary In order to save torpedoes . Subs now have a cruising range of 15,000 miles and can remain at sea four months, while in 1914 they could stay out only 14 days and in 1918 six weeks. The limit- Lag factors are food, fuel and tor- nedoes: but another limiting fac tor is the morale of the crews ox the subs," Graham said. "Seamen on U boats are under terrific strain and have to be relieved at inter- of vals. Defense methods consist better detection apparatus. ' the use of escort craft, both sur face and air, wUJt convoys. The Germans have more than 500 submarines. Graham reported, with about ICO operating in the Atlantic all the time, mile Ger man claims of sinking of nine mil lion tons of sniping last year was probably an exaggeration, if half that tonnage was lost, the vessels with their contents -would repre sent the equivalent of the produc tion of 500,00 men for one year, estimated Graham. "It is the navy's task to main tain the lifeline, and permit the travel of foodsLIps, transports and munitions carriers., across the ocean. While the spectacu lar action of the navy may be more dramatic and may be of crucial Importance at Umev or dlnarZy It Is fcJDst Liflaentlil - when most Inconspicuous," Gra .ham observed. Graham was Introduced by Prof. Ivan Lovell, with whom he at tended Harvard university, ten years ago. J OPA Releases Boots PORTLAND.
