Where is the Jap Fleet ?
Received Sunday, 8.50 p.m. LONDON, Sept. 18.
Tfie Japanese Have been more successful than other nations in concealing details of the progress of their fleet,” said Colonel Frank Knox in an interview. “No Japanese carrier has been seen at sea for four months. The Japanese total amount of merchant tonnage was probably 7,500,000 tons, of which about 2,500,000 tons have been sunk by submarines. United States submarine losses have not been heavy.”
