CHAPTER XXV. ‘
TRMANY'S submarine war- I
G fare. which was introduced |
in February, 1915, began by
sinking less than £O,OOO tons of ‘
ships per month. By Novembher, |
1915, the amount of tonnage de- I
stroyed per mpnth was close to i
200,000 tons. By January, 1916, |
the tonnage of ships destroyed by |
submarines had fallen to under !
100,000 tons. In April, 1916, as |
Grand Admiral von Tirpitz's fol- |
lowers made one more effort to }
make the submarine warfare guc- '
cessful nearly 275,000 tons were
being destroyed a month. But I
after the sinking of the Sussex
and the growing possibility of !
war with the United States the
submarine warfare was again
held back and In July less than
125,000 tons of shipping were de
siroyed, ;
At this time, however, the sub- l
marine campaign f{tself under
went a change. Previously most
of the ships destroyed were sunk
off the coast of England, France
or in the Mediterranean. During |
the year and a half of the sub
marine campaign the Allies’
method of catching and destroy- |
ing submarines became so effect
ive it was too costly to maintain
submarine warfare in belligerent
waters, The German navy had I
‘ried all kinds of schemes, but
- none wag very successful, After
the sinking of the Ancona
the Admiralty planned for two
submarines to work together,
but this was not as successful as |
it might have been. During May,
June and July the submarine
warfare was virtually given up,
as the losses of ships during those
months will show. There was a
steep decline from a quarter of a
million tons in April to less than
140,000 tons in May, about 125,-
000 tons In June and not much
more than 100 000 tons in July.
During these three months the
navy was being bitterly criticized
for its inactivity. But as the
events six months later will show
the German navy simply used
these months to prepare for a

this be true, is there any wonder
that Germany should be prepared
to conduct a ruthless submarine

it surprising tnat American ships

The Krupp interests have played
a leading role in the war, mnot
only by manufacturing billions of
shells and cannons and by finane
ing propaganda in the United
States, but by building subma
rines. At the Krupp wharves at
Kiel some of the bert undersea
craft are launched. Ouher ship
yards at Bremen, Hambu; and
Danzig have be:n mobilized for
this work, too. Just a few weeks
before diplomatic relations were
broken a group of American doc
tors, who were investigating pris
on camp conditions, went to Dan
zig. Here they l arned that the
twelve wharves were building be

American Line's wharvis were

Campaign May Be Late Starting
in Georgia, Hugh Richard
son Says.
Hugh Richardson, appointed gen
crai d'rector of the national thrift
campaign for Georgia, was busy
Tuesday using the long distance tel
¢phone in rounding up committee
members all over the State. He had
auite a problem on his hands, for
the campaign n-eds workers and not
figureheids—and a large proportion
of the real workers are on the job in
one of the more cf the various cam
paigns already under way.
Mr. Richardson, however, had cho
sen a numb-r of Atlantans for the
local work and several chairman for
covnties. He ecxpected to announce
the comp’ete list in a few days.
“The sale of stamps in the thrift
campaign wil' begin all over the
Urited States Deccmber 3,” Mr. Rich
ardson sa‘d Tuesday. “We may start
a little late in Georgia, for we were
delayed in the brginning.”
The thrift camnaign is intended to
follow up the Liberty bond sales by
giving opportunity for investments in
§5 interest-bearing bonds. S'amps
will be sold at 25 cents each, and a
sufficient numb-r of these can be ex
changed for $5 certificates. It is
exp-cted to reach even the children
in this way, and not only to swe'l the
war treasury but inculcate in young
