Official
French
estimates
place
at
over
fifty
the
number
of
German
submarines
which
have
been
sunk
by
the
Allies
since
the
war
began.
The
latest
sinking
last
night
was
credited
to
the
French
destroyer
;
Sirocco
wiich
last
week
had
disposed
of
two
German
U-boats.
.
Naval
experts
said
that
the
German
submarines
were
being
destroyed
at
the
rate
of
four
weekly
which
was
twice
as
fast
as
Germany
can
replace
them.
Thus,
it
is
reckoned,
Germany

has
onir
thirty-five
submer.-rible

with
sixty
