THE SUBMARINE MENAGE.
PESSIMISTIC ESTIMATE. MOST CRITICAL PERIOD. (Received 8.10 p.m.) Times. LONDON, Mar. 14. A naval correspondent writes: The losses of shipping emphasise the seriousness of the situation. The nation must realise that it has entered the most critical period of the war. Practically every estimate of supply and production has been falsified by events. Priority of consideration must be given to the problem of combating the submarines, until anti-submarino appliances for seacraft and aircraft are forthcoming quickly in an adequate quantity. The aggregate losses continue to mount until not all the resources of the allies can cope with them. The Times, in a leader, urges the Government to publish the facts fully, so that the nation may realise the seriousness of the situation, and be aroused to make the necessary effort to meet it.
