The action taken by the Admiralty in prematurely inviting tenders for the next group of destroyers, coupled with the improved characteristics will, provided their completion is not retarded, give Britain in time 'n botter nargin of superiority in torpedo craft than is represented by the pregnant fact that in the past four years wo have completed for service only 76 units compared with Germany's 48. This ad- vantage, considering the potential power of the destroyer, cannot be regarded as equal to Britain's neods.
