SUBMARINE INFESTED WATERS
UNPROTECTED BATTLESHIPS. (Rec. January 15, 10 p.m.) London, January 15. The "Morning Post," supporting Lord Cliarles Borosford's protest against the {.ending of battleships into sub-marine-infested waters without protecting destroyers, demands ail inquiry. [Lord Charles Beresford, ill a letter to the . Press, criticised adversely the policy; of sending battleships like the Formidable into submarine-infested waters without destroyers for scouting and protection, and said that the lessons of the Aboukir, Hogue, and Crecy disaster should have made the loss of the Formidable an impossibility, in view of the fact that British warships, protected by destroyers, had enjoyed immunity from attack during their bombardment off the Belgian coast.]
