The weekly return of British losses from submarine attack, issued
on Wednesday night, shows a further improvement. The number of railings and arrivals was higher than in the previous week,
though not quite so high as in the week before that. The number of vessels of over 1,603 thin- sunk was eighteen, as compared with twenty-four and thirty-eight in the two previous weeks. The number of smaller vessels sunk was only live, as compared with twenty-two and thirteen in the two previous weeks.
