Beresford Would
Hand Kiel Canal
Over to Denmark

Correspondence OF the Associated Press
LEEDS, Sept 16.--I1ord Charles Beres-
ford In addressing a recent mass meeting
for the purpose Of stimulating recruiting
here said THE Kiel canal must be
handed over to Denmark, so It viii be
useful for the peaceful pursuits OF tho
world"
The remark has caused widespread
comment and has become part of the
discussion of the probable results of the
war II the allies should win,
When the KieI canal was opened In
1895 the emperor OF Germany with repre-
sentatives OF the leading European powers
as his guests. said: Germany will range
the work inaugurated today on the side
of those accomplished in the service of
peace" II was regarded as significant
that upon the enlargement of the canal
last June. the occasion was not one OF
international celebration, although En-
peror William attended ana led a great
fleet Of German warships through the
eanal-which now figures so extensively
in the naval operations as magnificent
refuge for the German fleet
German strategists insist that the Kiel
canal doubles the power OF the German
fleet as 1t gives another entrance from
the North Sea to the Baltic and forces an
enemy TO scatter its strength in order
to bottle up the German warships. Eight
enormous sidings have been provided
within the enlarged canal in which ships
may pass. These are SO great they are
said to be capable of sheltering all the
ships of the German navy.
English strRtegists assert that the value
of the canal has been discounted con-
slderahly by the Developments OF the
present war. and declare that il has, II

more immobils than IL might otherwise

would be 10 Belgium, which would have
