ships in the North Sea- re
Afew days ago a correspondent of one of
the New York papers was allowed on board
one of the German war-vessels at sea. He
wrote back to his paper that Germany is con-

eastern half of it, with her battleships cruisers,
destroyers and submarines, and that he was
met with the instant query: when do you
think the British feet will come out and fight"
For months British war observers have been
asking, When will the German feet come out

historic occasion promised that the British
would bring ont the Germans if they had to be
"dug ont like rats.

awaiting the coming of the enemy feeti As
the war wears slowly on, the statement often
heard when it began is being revived: 1.-The
European conflict will be settled on the seas. !"
But not unless the fleets leave their fortified
and submarine defended harbors and meet in
the open.
