WHAT sailors think and talk about affects the ships of the Allied nations at all times, colors their corner of the war, and, matched and duplicated in the other fighting services might profoundly affect the peace.
A great deal of it may seem naive but there is a reason for that, and a good one. Sailors, more than anyone, tend to get out of touch with things. They see newspapers at irregular intervals, and not always the ones they prefer; they may be sealed from the outside world for weeks at a time. What they read and hear talked about when they come back again sometimes surprises them; perhaps because they see only half or a quarter of the whole picture, and cannot tell that the emphasis presented to them is faulty or the view only a partial one.
