Destroyer Escort Ships
New Submarine Killers
By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER
WASHINGTON, Murch 0 il'i
Fresh hopo that allied sen forces
wIlL bo able to crush Germany's
reinforced U-boat fleet this sum
mer was expressed by naval au
thorities today after Secretary
Knox disclosed that a new fleet
of submarine killer ships Is at
last coming down the way on a
muss production schedule.
Several score of the sleek lit
tle vessels, known In tho navy
as destroyer escorts, already
have been launched, the secre
tary told a press conference yes
terday. And hundreds of others
uro being or will be built. Each
ship requires about four mouths
for construction, less than half
the tlmo necessary to build a
regular destroyer.
Crews ore being (ruined a( o
pace to match the speed of con
struction and the first DE squad
rons should be in operation soon
later to bo orgnnlned into
teams of ships Knox said.
These teams of sub killers,
working In close cooperation
with planes and blimps whore
possible, are considered by some
well-qualified authorities to be
the answer to the Haul's vaunted
and deadly U-boat wolf-pack me

Thut they will be badly need

cepted, for all cvldonco Indicates
that (ho German navy bus pre
pared an unparalleled undersea
offensive against allied Atlantic
shipping.
Already Admiral Karl Docn
tiz, iiuzl naval chief and U-boat
expert, bus an average of more
than 100 undcrscas craft on con
stant duty In the Atlantic, and
this number Is expected to be In
creased to the extreme limit of
Germany's ability to wugc thut
kind of wur.
The DE's are bigger than (he
British Corvette types and gen
erally more powerful. They
were designed as sub-killers by
Rear Admiral Edward L. Coch
rane, chief of the navy's bureau
of ships, back in 1940 when he
held a lesser rank and a position
in the bureau.
Why none has been built prior
to the last few months was not

A DE costs about $3,500,000
half tho price of a destroyer
und it can be built In four
months, wliercus a destroyer re
