London, July 14 The Daily Tele- graplr published the following under. a Berlin date line: "There is a growing difference of opinion in Germany regarding the utility and possibilities of submarine war Count Reventlow, chief hen- chman of thé Von Tirpitz party, al- ways demands its continuance on the most ruthless lines. The other party, whose views are believed to be those of Von Bethmann-Hellweg, considers that the moral loss outweighs the gain. 'Ip the .Berliner Tageblatt Capt. Persus writes an important article. | While taking the middle course, he] goes out of his way to warn those who expect great things from this! form of warfare and emphasizes his argument by the following remark- {able admission of England's sea pow-| er. 'Without doubt the shipbuilding industry will be able to replace ey: ery losin the fighting units na véry short time. No error was made when it was asserted that the strength of British sea power is very | much higher now than a year ago. Therefqre, our expectations in res-| pect of trade war for the present must not be screwed up too much.' "Other quotations from this arti- cle are: "All authorities agree that the party which has the submarines POs | sesses a weapon of the highest decis- ive importance when it has no trad- ing ships itself to defend against | those dependent on sea traffic for their existence! | '" 'Our submarines have sunk, with the exception of the Dreadnought type, every kind of warship; ang in trading ships the quick steamer has | proved itself as little immune against torpedoes as the slow fishing boat. | But those who hope to read of high-| er numbers in the lists of destroyed | | ships have not takem into sufficient consideration the quantity of our) submarine weapon and they have al- 80 forgotten the difficulties which ac- successful attack by sub marine. ' 'Practically there are many ob- stacles in the way of command of the | sea by submarines, but these obstac- les can be overcome. With the great- est 'confidence we can expect that) still more industrious activity of our submarines will find expression in a ken war and trading ships." * | Gananoque i July 14.-~Under the auspices of! the A.
