NEW WARNING TO GERMANY
Duke AIbrecht Says German Interests
Are being BrOken Up by
COmDetitiOn.

BREMEN, Feb. n.-Duke Johann AL
brecht OF Mecklenburg. regent of Bruins
wick. uttered a remarkable warning to
Germans of all classes In speaking tonight
at the annual Bourser's banquet, whichNwas
attended by leading commercial men, ship
owners, manufacturers and army officers.
Under the German flag" said the duke,
I'VE see a wild competition by everybody
against every one else. RThis is breaking
up German interests while other nations are
concentrating all their strength by working
together Many look anxiously at the
German flying squadron masts and ask
themselves when 1t will give place to the
union Jack, or the tri-eoor, or even the
yellow dragon; the call should go up here
before 1t is too late, everybody to work.
l appeal to ship builders, ship owners, mine
owners Industrial men and all others to
draw together like other peoples for the
benefit OF the whole and thus secure
proper position among the nations for Ger
man commerce and shipping"
