DUTCH WARSHIPS
WORK WITH ALLIES [U.P.A.—By Electric Telegraph-Copyright] LONDON, 28th December. British naval yards are fitting out a number of Netherlands warships which were brought to Britain in an incomplete state. They crossed the North Sea at the time of the German invasion, and they will soon join the active naval forces of the Allies. Netherlands warships are to-day patrolling in the Atlantic and in West Indian waters and in other parts of the world. Besides mine-layers and mine-sweepers, a flotilla of Netherlands submarines has been formed and has been taking part for some considerable time in the operations of the British naval forces.
