and if she chooses to blockade at all
will attempt to seal up the English
channel and the sea passage between
north Scotland and Norway. He points
out that only small force is required
to block the channel, as the navigation
route there is very narrow, and all the
great English naval depots-Dover,
Portsmouth, Portland and Plymouth
are on the line Of blockade or close be-
hind it. Furthermore, the line is COW
cred on the north by Sheerness and
Harwich, so that retreat Of German
ships to the coast Of Germany might
effectually be cut off.
As for the northern line, in the
scheme of blockade he outlines, Won
Bernhard declares that it is no less
favorable, since the blockaders would
have base in the great naval harbor
of Rosyth, and squadron of cruisers
must lie in support off the Orkneys.
Under these conditions he figures
that every attacking fleet from the
German north coast would be vigorous
ly attacked itself from Rosyth and
Sheerness and its retreat cut off.
A Vital Consideration.
In view Of all this he thinks that
the only wise course for Germany in
such an event would be to advance
from the Baltic against the northeast
ern part of the British blockading line
since retreat in such an event would
be tolerably safe. He writes:
'This accentuates once more the su-
preme Importance to us of keeping

France a Feared Foe.

He reviews the probabilities Of a Eu-
ropean Armageddon thus:
IF we look at France first we are
entitled to assume that single handed
she is not match for us, but can ONLY
be dangerous to us as a member of a
coalition. If France thinks she has all
the trumps in her hands she will not
shrink from an offensive war and will
stake everything in order to strike US
a mortal blow. We must expect the
most bitter hostility from this antago-
mist.

annihilate our navy and oversee CON-

Two Years Ago.

NVER two years ago General
Friedrich Won Bernhard of the

Of the leading authorities on
military matters in Europe, wrote a
book called Germany and the Next
War;" in which he outlined with star
Ting exactness the very course which
Germany is now pursuing In the pres
ent war.
Foreseeing the refusal Of Italy to
fight on the side Of Germany and Aus
tria and taking fully into account the
numerical superiority Of the combined
Russian and French armies over the
Germans and Austrians, as we'll as the
commanding advantage Of Great Brit
ain on the sea, he exhorted his fellow
countrymen to war Of aggression on
land, a war of sudden and deadly
blows, if they would avert the down
fall of their native land as a world
power.
In her war Of self preservation, wrote
Won Bernhard, Germany must make
everything count. Neutrality is a pa
per bulwark," he exclaimed contemp-
tuously-a statement which, says the
New York Times, in view Of Ger
many's disregard of treaties concerning
Luxembourg, Belgium and Holland,
shows him to have been a mouthpiece
of those now directing German STRAIT

How Won Bernhard would have Ger

result in her first warlike operations is
summed up in phrase: The best de-
fensive strategy is to take the offen-
sive. To prevent invasions Of her
widely threatened territory she must
carry the war quickly and suddenly

open, at all costs, the passage through
the sound and the great belt The COM
mand of this strait will not only
secure the Baltic basin for US, but
also keep open the sally ports for our
offensive operations against the Eng
lish blockading feet"
But the general does not think that
Great Britain will content herself with
a mere blockade in any form. In order
to bring the war to quick end he is
convinced that the English will try to
land troops. Of this eventually he
writes:
'They could not obtain a decisive re-
suit unless they attempted to capture
our naval es-Wilhelmshaven, Hell
goland, the mouth Of the Elbe and
Kiel-and to annihilate our fleet in it's
attempt to protect these places and
thus render it impossible for us to con-
tinue the war by sea.
"Our whole future history may turn
upon the impregnab ility of the fortifi-
cations, which, in combination with
the fleet, are intended to guard our
coast and naval bases and should in
fict such heavy losses on the enemy
that the difference of strength between
the two fleets would be gradually
equalized. Our ships, it must be re-
membered, can only act effectively so
long as our coast Notifications hold
OUT
French and Russian Navies.
AS to probabilities regarding the
French and Russian fleets, the German
general writes:
IF the French feet-as we may ex-
pect-combines with the English and
takes part in the war it will be much
more difficult for us to wage war than
a war with England alone
Frances blue water fleet would hold
our allies in the Mediterranean in
check, and England could bring all her
forces to bear upon us. It would be
possible that combined fleets of the
two powers might appear both in the
Mediterranean and in the North sea.
since England could hardly leave the
protection of her Mediterranean inter-
ests to France alone. The prospect Of
any ultimately successful issue would
thus shrink into the background.
"But we must not even then DESPAIR.
On the contrary, we must fight the
French feet. so to speak. on land
i. e., we must defeat France so de-
c1sively that she would be compelled to
renounce her alliance with England
and withdraw her fleet to save herself
from total destruction.

Blockade by England.

I'VE should at first carry on a defen-
sive war and would therefore have to
reckon on blockade of our coasts if
we succeed in repelling the probable
English attack.
"Such a blockade can be carried out
in two ways. England can blockade
closely our North sea coast and at the
same time bar the Danish strait so as
to cut off communications with our
Baltic ports, or she can seal up on the
one side the channel between Eng
land and the continent, on the other
side the open sea between the north
OF Scotland and Norway, on the Peter
head-Ekersund line, and thus cripple
our oversee commerce, and also con-
troll the Belgo-Dutch. Danish and
Swedish shipping.
"A close blockade in the first case
would greatly tax the resources of the
English fleet. According to the view
OF English experts, if blockade is to
be maintained permanently the dis
lance between the base and the block
aiding line must not exceed 200 nautical
miles. Since all the English naval
ports are, considerably farther than
this from our coast the difficulties of
carrying on the blockade will be enor-
mously increased"
General Won Bernhard figures that
England will discard the close blockade
