All meas ures that we know that could help reduce the submarine menace are being used, Mr. Knox said, but here is nothing on which to pre dict any hope for early stoppage or cure. The day before, the Navy had announced a serious loss the ubniarine sinking of two passenger-cargo ships in the North At lantic with approximately 850 casualties, both civilian and service personnel more than (!()() of the 900 aboard the first vessel and more than half of the 500 aboard t he second ship.
