Admiral Sims said adoption of the convoy system marked the turmin ‘point of the war and that the Allies had to wait for American co-opera- tion before the plan cauld be made ef- fective. The convoy was adopted by the Allies experimentally about May 21, 1917, he s “The United States was asked to furnish 14 cruisers for es- corts. No cruisers were furnished for many weeks and then only seven. Our delay was extremely costly. Our destroyers and other ships should have sailed the night we de- clared war and there was no good rea- son why they should not have done so. If they had, 2,500,000 tons of ship- ping would have been saved and the United States would have had an army of 1,000,000 men in France by May 1, 1918. The fact was that after we de- clared war many American ships ahd to be placed in dry dock and repaired before thev could be sent to the war zone.” Senator Pittman told the admiral he had not presented any evidence to suppor his assertion that failure of the navy to co-operate properly during the war had prolanged the struggle at a cost of 500,000 lives. Unless you can produce evidence to support that assertion it falls flat,” said the senator. notify vou herz and now that at the praper time evi- dence will be intreduced to show that the army did not ask for ocean trans- port that it did not get.” “If you do you will have to disprove Gen. Pershing’s own report in which he id that he could not get troops to France when he wanted them,” re- torted the admiral. “I think T have proved that the full co-operation of the navy early in the war would hava reduced the sinking of merchant ships, thus provided tonnage to take American troops abroad, and thus ended the war sooner and saved 509,- 000 lives and great treasure” replied the officer. ‘There never was a time when ships were not provided to carry to France any American soldiers who were prop- ely trained and ready to zo.” replied Senator Pittman.
