Submarine threat and ship speeds debate in wartime column
A 1930s era column revisits naval strategy criticizing slow warships and merchant vessels. It argues faster ships and diesel engines are vital, condemns Sea Otter prototypes, notes U S and Allied convoys face risks from German U boats, and questions Washington’s transportation planning and naval engineering decisions amid looming wartime needs. It also reports a local sailor marriage anecdote from Oakland.
