NAZI NAVAL BUILDING
CONCENTRATION ON* SMALLER UNITS. I (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON, June 6. The “Daily Telegraph” naval correspondent says the fact that 'the Bismarck and. Prinz Eugen were Germany’s only large ships under construction at the outbreak of the war which have ventured to sea suggests a slowing, up of German big ship constructipn, and that the importance of concentrating on smaller units may, in the German view, be paramount. It seems probable that the rest of the big ships will never be completed. All tile indications point to the fact that Germany is concentrating on submarines, destroyers, torpedo-boats and mine-sweepers, and that, as in the last war, the delivery of bigger units has been retarded or suspended.
