SIR EDWARD CARSON tries tobuoy up the English people withstatistics showing only a smallpercentage of English shipping ton-nage was actually sunk during the firstmonth of submarine ruthlessness, butthere is little use whistling in the dark when the spec-ter is actuallypresent. Sir Ed-ward says noth-ing about theenormous Amer-ican and otherneutral tonnagetied up in homeand other portsby fear of thesubmarine; s ofar as the Eng-lish supply is concerned, it had as wellbe at the bottom of the sea unlessBritain can give guarantee that it candeliver the goods without too great arisk. The Germans did not sink amillion tons the first month of theircampaign of terror, but they keptmuch more than that in safe portsand altogether deprived England ofmore than 2,000,000 tons campaign is based upon thetheory that if they can destroy a mil-lion tons per month, they can so cur-tail supply as to force her to meet ina peace council before her armies canaccomplish the big push.
