Beginning of Present War -- German Claims Exag- gerated Germany's, continued claims of sinkings of Royal Naval vessels last month in London brought a formal statement which. summar- ized Britain's and Germany's nav- al losses since war began. It show- ed that the Nazis had lost 21 shis, exclusive of a large number of submarines, British ~lesses, incfuding sub- marines, number 18, (Submarines lost were listed at five). CRUISERS INTACT The statement clearly showed that whereas Germany's losses re: presented a staggering blow fo her naval strength, Britain's- strength at sea remained unim- paired. } Of the 15 capital ships Britain possessed at the start of the war, only the Royal Oak has been lost. The Courageous is the only one of seven aircraft carriers lost. Bri- "tain has not lcst a single cruiser. Her other losses, are 10 destroyers of the pre-war fleet of 185 and five submarines, NAZI BATTLESHIPS GONE her battleships, two of her three pocket battlo-hips, both of her heavy cruisers, all six-inch gun cruisers with which she started the war, and 12 surface torpedo craft. SINCE NORWAY Unofficial estimates of U-Boat sinkings by the Allies have rang- ed as high as 60. - Naval sources point out the statement is not the whole story. Since Hitler invaded Norway, 26 transports and supply ships have been sunk or scuttled. Ten others were hit by torpedoes and prob- ably sunk.
