Erik Larson Quote

In an article about the warning, the paper quoted Cunard’s New York manager, Charles Sumner, as saying that in the danger zone there is a general system of convoying British ships. The British Navy is responsible for all British ships, and especially for Cunarders. The Times reporter said, Your speed, too, is a safeguard, is it not? Yes, Sumner replied; as for submarines, I have no fear of them whatever.
