perhaps I wo, machine guns. Eacb of
those ships Is about 230 feet long,
which is more than a New York city
block, anil manned liy about forty offl- J
eers and men.
The German suLuiersibles of the
C-20 and 1' 40 classes are also of the
ocean going type, but have not the
radius of the big ships, which are num
bered in tho sixties and higher. The
U-(50's displace about l,0(X) tons on the
Surface, the t'-20's and U-40's from 750
to S50 tons. Each carries eight torpe
does, and each has a battery corre
sponding to those in the larger res
sols. A few of the newer boats are be
lieved to mount four Inch guns, al
though this has not been officially es
laHisbod. The radius of the U-'-O and
U-40 types varies from 2,000 to 3,000
miles at a surface speed of from ten
to twelve knots.
The Coastal Submarine.
The Gorman submerslbles of the
coastal type are vessels of varylug ton
nage. some of the smaller being of
only 100 tons, while the largest of the
other types displace about 450 tons.
None oL these ships carries more than
sis torpedoes, and the radius of action
varies from 1.200 to about 2,000 miles
under favorable conditions. This fact
indicates that they are available for
serviie in the present German under
taking. so far as the North sea zones
are concerned.
Concerning the radius of the larger
submersible*, Jane makes the signifi
cant statement that the distances can
bo greatly exceeded if necessity arises.
According to Hear Admiral A. W.
Grant, U. S. N., commanding United
States submarines, the largest German
ocean going subinersibles engaged in
commerce destruction can operate at a
distance of 1.350 miles from Helgo
land. The "out and home voyage" of
2,700 miles is done in nine days (most
ly by night), and eleven days are oc
cupied in destroying shipping unless
torpedoes, bombs or ammunition are
destroyed earlier. Twelve days elapse
between cruises to rest the crews and
overhaul the engines, etc.
In addition to the types referred to,
Germany can. If necessary, put Into
action as commerce destroyers in the
zone nearest the German mainland a
considerable number of boats known,
as the "experimental U type," built
between 190'J and 1900. These little
boats carry three torpedoes of the
eighteen inch type, and some have a
radius of action as high as 1,300 knots.
Briefly, those are the types of sub
marines which Germany will use in
her efforts to destroy all allied ship
ping wherever bound as well as neu
tral shipping bound for allied ports.
What will the allies do to meet the
problem? According to an official of
one of the entente governments in
this country, all possible precautions
have been taken and the campaign to
