Calling the losses “heavy but not disastrous,” the special committee 1!nvesugdung war problems report- | ed the losses were reduced in the latter months of the year, declared confidently, “The submarine men- ace can and will be effectively met."” The answer to the threat of undersea raiders, the committee de- clared in a 75-page, 45,000-word re- port, is stepped-up production of new merchant escort vessels and the combined use of destroyers as escorts as well as the use of escort airplane carriers and land-based airplanes equipped for anti-sub- marine work along with more sub- chasers. | “All of these are being provid- ed. It is only a question of time,” the report stated The number of ships lost last | year were not given, but the com- mm.ee notes 746 ships, totaling 8,- 090800 tons, were built in this country last year. - Mlsbl(}\ ARY S0C] ll"l l MEMORIAL CHURCH TO MEET THIS EVENING The Missionary Society of the Memorial Presbyterian Church will | meet tonight at 7:30 o'clock in the | manse, according to announcement | hy the Rev.
