The destruction Of the British light

point o. view Of sea power, the loss
Of the vessel 10 without Importance.
The, Hawke had no offensive strength
under modern naval conditions, being
twenty-three years old and destined
for quick retirement.
~ Nevertheless, the success OF the
German submarines has value quite
apart from the actual losses suffered
by the rival fleets. The German navs'
has never had an opportunity to DEM
onstrate the fitness, skill and inlt'a-
tive Of its officers under hostile condi-
tions which have been quantities to
themselves as well as to the rest OF
the world. The victories won under
the sea will give q confidence to the
German sailors that undoubtedly will
stir them to greater effort.
IN this fact lies the possibility for
an ultimate sweeping victory for
