Simonds in “The iencan Review.” i Outside the European and Medit- terranean field sea power has enab- lled the British to gather up all {but one of the German colonie3° lwith French and Japanese help, ithe remaining colony, too, German fiEast Africa, too, lies within the grasp of the British whenever 'they choose to seize it. The Great ,Britain of Asquith has dealt with Germany as the Britain of the Pitts dealt with France, both 01 the Monarchy and the Empire. It has abolished German commerce, appropriated German colonies sealed up German 'harbors to trade, and it has prevented the Germans from inflicting any ma- ,terial loss upon the British in their 3 own kingdom and from effectively interfering with their trade or their transport. Up to the present British sea» power has accomplished all that Nelson accomplished for his coun- try and a little more, that is to say it has established tne British supremacy on water beyond ques- tion, it has abolished tne German commerce from the sea‘ it has de- stroyed the German warships and undersea boats that have ventured within reach, it has given to Brit- ish commerce and to British transport the safe use of the sea. Despite the sensational details of the sinking of a few great liners, it is well to remember that the actual percentage of loss of British shipping Irom German ac- tivities is far smaller than that in- flicted by French privateers in the [Napoleonic time, and never did 7the British in the earlier wars with the French succeed in paralyzmg lso completely an enemy commerCe 'as they have now. Following the earlier precedent, British sea power has made it pos- sible for British eXpeditions to operate in Europe and outside of it. » ( ' . To-day Britain is giving financial aid to Russia and to Italy‘ she is giving military aid to France, and she is engaging Germany’s Turkish ally. Her troops, her‘money, her Thus, in effect, Germany has oc- cupied \Varsaw, Lille, and Bel- grade, only to lose Hamburg and Bremen, which are to all intents and purposes in British hands, since they cannot be used by Ger- many. ‘I 1“ -,A_-__ _._. After eighteen months Germany has captured nothing that can give her a basis for bargain with Britain. And what Britain holds makes all of Germany’s conquests of little value. She is in the posi- tion of a burglar whp has entered {nnhâ€"imsefland c‘bllected thy silvm but cannot get out to dispose of it Now, unless Germany can outlast Britain, or find some way to exer- cise compulsion upon Britain, she must ultimately go to London and ask for peace, because she must ultimately resume her sea com- merce, she must ultimately use the oceans. Nothing is more idle than to suppose that there is a market or a future for Germany as a self- contained empire, even if that em- pire extends from "Hamburg to Bagdad. The very character of German industry makes the sea the necessary 'ay of transport. and it is from her trade beyond the frontiers of her allies that she draws the revenue which keeps her great population living in a restricted area. I do not believe that the German people are starving or in immediâ€" ate danger of starving. Perhaps after a year or two more of war there will be real suffering where there is now only hardship. But hardship there is, hardship which is revealed in :a multitude of ways. There is, too, a shortage of certain things essential in war. for which substitutes may be found in most cases, although not. for example, in the case of rubber. Still it is possible to believe that another year or two of war would not exhaust German material "1‘ reduce Germany to starvation, On the other hand. it must be reciignized that Germany's men are limited. She has already: lost seven men for one of the British. and her population is but 67.000000 against more than 60,000,000 for Britain and her White colonies. Financially the war is costing her. with advances to her allies, almost dollar for dollar with the British. and she has no such resources of accumulated ca ital as Britain upon which to aw.

Not only has Germany so far failed to do this, but she has failed where Napoleon succeeded. He conquered his land foes, occu- pied their capitals, and paid the costs of his war from their treas~ uries. All this Germany has been unable to do.

She is fighting. not to des- troy the German nation, but to destroy Germany as a l'l\'al naval power and marine cornpetitor. Prophecy is idle and I do not mean to prophesy. \Vhat I do mean to emphasize is, that eigh- teen months after the outbreak of the war, sea power has so com- plvti‘l)’ bested militarism. that the fsituation still exists. unless Ger- <many can find some way to modi- fy it, by success over the British, insures German defeat exactly as cNapoleon’s defeat was assured :when he failed to dispose of sea ipower and faced the Continent m arms. By next fall Britain will certain- ly have as man men under arms as Germany, an they will be phy- sically far ,better men. because On the map, the German con- quests make a l'ormidable show- ing, but how much more impres- sive is the showing oi tne Briiisn conquests il you color the seas to indicate them. Some day Europe will talk peace, but what Value will peace have for Germany if it does not include in terms the right to use the seas?
