BERLIN — Geimany Saturday
night claimed signal success at
small cost in the war on the seas,
asserting that her submarine and
bomber attacks on merchant ship-
ping had struck telling blows at
Britain's food supply by sinking
113 ship* totalling 475,231 tons.
This has been achieved, said the
high command communique, at the
cost of only three submarines, loss
of which “must be counted on in
view of their long absence."
Nazis said that Britain had lost
every round of the first eight weeks
of the war with the exception of
the Umted States Senate action in
voting to lift the arms embargo.
Germans expect the House of
Representatives to vote the same
way.

Aviators Smash Endurance Record Over Desert
HARLINGEN-Frank J. Keenan.
Washington, chairman of the Irri-
gation. Drainage and Levee Depart-
ment. Reconstruction Finance Cor-
poration. arrived here Friday for a
week's survey of condition in con-
nection with RFC loans in this sec-
tion.
The Reconstruction Finance Cor-
poration has made approximately
18 loans in the Rio Grande Valley,
Keenan said, amounting to some-
thing like 812,000,000. Keenan said
the RFC has loaned no money to
the Willacy county irrigation dis-
trict but that most of the other
districts in this section has RFC
loans.
"We think they are pretty well
secured,” he said, "and we are op-
timistic about the Valley. The
present visit is merely one of going
over the districts, renewing ac-
quaintances and checking on loca-
tions and conditions."
He said loans to Valley districts
are all predicated on a very substan-
tial reduction in the original
bonded debt. Average payment
made for all RFC bonded loans In
the United States will amount to
about 48 cents on the dollar. Keen-
an said, and that loans in the Val-
i ley would probably run “slightly
higher."
Keenan conferred with R J. Eas-
ley. RFC appraiser stationed at
Harlingen. Friday and Saturday, and
said he would remain in the Valley
probably until the latter part of
1 next week.
Admiralty Reports

addition to merchant shipping "8.-

reported sunk belonged to neutral
nations.
In London the Admiralty gave
the total British merchant shipping
losses to noon October 28 as
ships totalling 210.021 tons and
neutral losses as 29 ships totalling
72.000 tons. These figures do not
include the 22.500-ton aircraft car-
