The allied war boards, who have been trying to determine how many U-boats the Germans have and what condition they are in, have gathered enough informa- tion in various ways to justify the | belief that not more than two or three dozen submarines are actu- | ally operating in the war zone at| atime. The rest of the boats are | going in or coming out or being repaired at the bases, or suffering |some sort of delay, of which there’ are several kinds. It is believed that when a crew returns from a cruise under the sea | they are unfit for further duty of that kind for periods varying from one to six months, and that it is difficult to keep enough crews trained to keep the boats opera- ting. It is extremely hard on the nerves to operate under water in the foul air, and frequently some ‘of the crew commit suicide rather than endure the misery and tor- ture. Some lose their minds and |must be confined: in asylums while the others are forced to rest for |months before they are in fit con- | dition again for the terrible work.
