British "Mavaksm" Has Not
Menaced Trade, Says Fox
New Haven Man Asserts DR.. Demburgs Theories Are
Proved False by History of Merchant
Marine Growth


To rHB ERROR OF THE SuN-sir: In
my last letter, criticising Dr. Dernburg' :
logic, showed the folly OF his statement
that British fortified coaling stations
threatened the commerce OF all nations.
That is especially true Of the Western
Hemisphere. From Halifax on the At
ltntic to Vancouver on the Pacific there
Is not strongly fortified coaling station
which menaces the commerce of the
United states or any other nation. on
the Pacific coast OF this continent there is
no British coaling station of any sort
until Vancouver. in British Columbia is
reached. and the one there can hardly
be spoken Of AS strongly fortified. Or.
Dernburgs feeling against England leads
him constantly to assertions which do not
bear close examination. I will prove this
by discussing two or three.
lie says: "lf at British demand the
German navy is dismantled. then the
United States cannot have mercantile
marine without navy that can, single
handed. cope with tho British"
In 1911 Norway had n mercantile steam
tonnage equal to that OF France. OF Japan.
twice as great as that OF Austria and
nearly twice that OF Italy. yet It's navy is
insignificant.
The appeal to history shows DR.. Dern-
centuries England's navy has very much
surpassed those OF other nations. yet no
peaceful nation has had any cause to fear
II. Prussia had no fleet OF any kind until
1865, and no enormous fleet until 1900.
Yet the two great German steamship COM
panies, founded before 1850 through en-
terprse and industry grew enormously
during the last half of tho last century.
The history Of the United States tells
the same story Our tonnage engaged in
foreign trade in 1861 reached 2,494, s94
tons, the highest figure for foreign ton
mage I'm our history.
Or. Dernburg saws British navalism.
which Is much moro dangerous to the
world AT large than the so-called German
mlitarism. demands that two British
ships shall always exist for one of any
nation whatever. And while II may be
said that the world Is now doing It's over
sea trade on British tolerance. there is
the certainty that II can In future only
do IL by British permission II the Brit
fish programme OF destroying Germany
and its fleet In long struggle is real
lied"
Now let US put the test of logical anal
ysis 10 this paragraph First. when we re-
member that in all such computation by
British citizens the navy OF the United
states is expressly excepted we realize
again that DR.. Dernburg is fallible and
incIact. ,
