26. The presence on this side of the Atlantic of a formid able fleet of Allied warships was in dicated definitely to-day. The vessels are known officially as commerce destroyers. They are heavily armed and disguised. For ob'ious reasons their exact position is not revealed but the arrival recently in American waters of this newest unit of the British and French Admiralties was made known from a source that hardly can be mistaken.

For some days skippers of transatlantic and coastwise steamers have been brlnffing to New England ports reports of strange appearing craft that were making their way westward. They made no reply to signals and could not be approached. They steered a vagrant course and were described variously as of the fashion of merchantmen, transports, light cruisers and even of submarines. Pieced together, these reports fitted in with the suspicion, now apparently confirnied, of shipping men. It is said the fleet arrived safely at Halifax, Xovla Scotia, a few days ago, but nothing then became known generalise about it because of the strict censorship maintained.

The commerce protectors are de scribed as large and powerful, but capable of fair speed. They were designed, it is said, to meet the German U-boat danger and in anticipation of an attempted raid off -the Canadian cost similar to that made by (he U-53 off Nantucket on Oc tober 8. At that time shipping men figured that there was not an Allied warship within 500 miles of the spot that Capt. Hans Rose deliberately selected in which to operate. The British Admiralty, it is determined to make impossible an other such raid, and the not of com merce protectors wa? the fruition of the plan then formulated.

The arrival of thp disguised warships was followed almost immediately with the announcement by the British Premier, Lloyd -George, of the plan for the nationalization of British shipping. It is understood that the commerce protectors will not only He In wait for at piKttcgic points, but that they have been provided in sutli-cient number to act as convoys for merchant vessels throughout the zones In which underseas boats would be most likely to operate.
