KEEL CANAL IMPORTANT
IN GERMAN NAVAL STRATEGY
Quick Passage Afforded for Battle
Ships From Baltic to North Sea.

The great Importance Of the Kicl Canal
IN the present struggle Of Germany
against the combined forces of the Triple
Entente has been largely overlooked but
is matter that is liable to become very
apparent ut any moment An expert in
naval matters, writing in. the special war
number Of the Scientific American, brings
out some of the vital features Of the sit
aution as affected by the canal:
Another and most important strdtcSical
advantage in the German situation is
the Kaiser Wilhelm Canal, which affords
quick passage for the largest battleships
from the Baltic to the North Sea. This
canal practically cuts the British lighting
line in half. II was built ior this very
purpose.
For If the British should force tleir
way into the Eatic the German fleet could
pass to the North Sea through the canal
and the Elbc, steam to the English
Channel. sink tho vast lee. Of transports
that are carrying men and supplies to
the English army in Belgium Hnd hnllN
the whole English aud French coasts.
Hence, IN sockinG to bring the German
fleet to action, it would be necessary
for England to leave half her fleet at
the mouth of the Elbc and soud the other
half around Denmark into the Baltic.
This would mean that, so far as her
dreadnoucht strength is concerned. Grr-
many could elect to night either fleet undo;
equal conditions.
The only otacr way to get at the Got-
mans would be to reduce the coast furti-
dcatinns with an cNpeditivuarN army.
But the German coast on tho North Sea
is so shoal that the landing Of such
torcc from transports is out of thc ,tucs-
tion. There remains only one wty in
which it could bc attempted
If England followed ticrmauy's 8 example
by violating the neutrality OF Holland, Or
should Holland enter the 'ETi1lo Alli,,ucts.

GERMAN NAVAL STRENGTH
IN PECULIAR POSITION
outnumbered 3 to l by Allies Ton
mage. Must Exercise Caution.

The peculiar position of Germany on the
sea has been given very serious ronsid-
Grafton and, indeed, is generally m!sun-
derstood or nislntcrpreted. y great deal
Of light is thrown on the subject in an
editorial in the war number Of the Sci
cntinc American, which has the follow
ing to say:
No less upon the sea than upon the
land is Germany favored by geographical
conditions. The allied fleets of t,nGland
and France have a superiority, based on
total tonnage, of over three TO one over
that of Germany and Austria, aud IA
superiority in the first fighting line. of
drcadnoughts of two to one, If to France
is delegated the task of destroying the
Austrian fleet in the Adriatic the Eng
lish fleet in the North Sea has twice as
many dreadnoughts as that Of Germany,

1870; and of submarines, IS 10 Il. Under
these conditions it would be hopeless for
Germany to accept battle in the open.
Ship for ship. the English drcadnoIghts
are more powerfully armed, and in sea-
manship and gunnery they arc at least
the equals of their opponents.
Hence tie Germans have either retired

ficatlons and mines. These consist Of
heavy lous-range guns and mortars,
whose: shells would fall with great accu-
racy over the course which would have

waters the fleet would lose heavily also
