Berlin, July 3l.-Although the main
German and British fleets have not
been matched in battle, the ending of
the first year Of the war finds that
Germany has distinguished herself at
sea, says Captain l. Persius in a ma
val review prepared for The Associat-
ed Press. Captain Persius, formerly
an officer of the Germany navy, is
recognized authority on German naval
affairs and is naval expert of the
Bcrliner Tagerblatt. He states that
Germany's policy has been to attempt
to weaken her chief opponent at sea
by using submarines and mines, to
point where there will be some pros
pect of success of an attack on the
main British fleet. His review fol-

came involved in serious difficulties
with Serbia there was little doubt
Germany would support her ally in
case Russia adhered to her traditional
policy of defending her Slavic kins-
men in the Balkans. The entrance
in the war Of France followed as a
natural sequence to her alliance with
Russia and Great Britain joined in
after Germany's invasion of Belgium.
Italy was thus the only one Of the
six nations concerned in the two al
liances which was not involved at
the outset. Proclaiming her neutral
ity. she utilized the opportunity to
seek from Austria the territory to the
north of her border which she has
long desired Failing to obtain full
satisfaction of her demands she de-
nounced the Triple Alliance and
joined the Allies. The Triple En-
tente was thus converted into the
Quadruple Entente. as it is sometimes
called now.
Germany and Austria Hungary
were strengthened by the adhesion Of
Turkey to the informal alliance with
Germany which had sprung up in re-
cent years and in November Turkey
entered the war. Montenegro took
up arms with the Serbs, and Belgium,
on being invaded, joined the Allies.
Japan. Great Britain's ally in the
East, opened war on Germany, follow

mia on June %, 1914. while the inn
mediate cause of the war, was not the
determining influence. Europe had
been on the edge Of the precipice for
decade. Perhaps the chief under
lying factor was the development of
the national idea, demanding that
political divisions should be made to
correspond with the territory inhab-
tied by the various peoples Of Eu-
rope that each people, with common
language and customs, should have
political independence and place
in the sun" The struggle to attain
this end kept Europe in political tur-
MOL. France aspired for Alsace and
Lorraine, italy for Triest and the
Trentino, populated largely by Ital-
ians; Serbia for Bosnia, Rumania for
Pennsylvania and Bessarabia. Aus
tria- Hungary, within whose boundary
is complexity of races with varying
claims and aspirations, was particu-
larly menaced by the growth of this
idea, and it was one phase Of this
gitation-Serbia's desire for Bosnia
which brought on the crisis. The
same motive brought in Montenegro
and Italy, and influenced Russia and
France to go to war.
The growth of the national idea
was attended by the growth of mill
tarism as a means of securingg these
desires. The greatest standing armies
in history were built up, compulsory
military service became widespread,
and enormous navies were construct
ed.
Out Of it all, with the mutual sus-
piston engendered, grew the situation
which kept Europe in fear of war.
Armed to excess. the nations awaited
the war which finally came.

Petrograd, July 31.-The following
statement concerning the conclusion
Of the first year Of the war was pre-

MY opinion in a few words, after
one years duration Of this war, un-
precedented in the worlds annals, is
as follows:
The enemy is strong and cruel, and
that is the very reason why Russia
and her heroic allies must continue
the war-should 1t last for several

The lessons drawn by Captain Persus from past events
are summed up briefly as follows:
"Superority of technical material plays in earlier
val battles an important role perhaps to greater extent
now than before Given practically equal in Skill tho
side which is inferior in artillery and speed is at
disadvantage that victory is possible only under eS
tionally favorable circumstances.
"The submarine has proveditsef thoroughly dangero
weapon to which unsupported possibilities must be conc
ed All methods of defense hitherto employed have fail
to fulfill their purpose in requisite manner. In
"Drgibes and aeroplanes have not only demonstrated
their scouting but also have been engaged e
lively upon the offensive
"The lessons learned even thus far will have Marked
upon construction of fleets, and UNDER
stand the United States efforts being made to take
advantage of them"

offensive Spirit"

"The German feet may boast that
the offensive spirit it. has displayed
has constituted the most prominent
and decisive feature Of all the naval
war theatres. War was declared
against Russia. .on Aug. 1, and on Aug.
2 the cruiser Augsburg bombarded the
Russian war port. OF Libau. The dec
laration Of war against France was
issued Aug. 8, and on the following
day the cruiser Goeben and Breslau
shelled the troop. embarkation points
of Phillipeville and Bona, on the North
African coast, Finally England de-
clared war on August 4, and on the
sth the minelayer Koenigin Luise
planted mines at the mouth OF the
Thames. one of which destroyed the
cruiser Amphion.
I'VE thus see that from the very
beginning German .warships displayed
a spirit of daring Offensive Not only

In Germany the gigantic task of
our sea forces is in no wise under

fleet alone. SO far as material strength
is concerned, Is considerably more
than twice our superior, but we are
certain that the same heroic spirit of
determination to win exists in the

MUNITION PLANTS
Ordnance Bureau Wants Z. S. Explo-
sivcs Manufacture.

Washington, Dec. 27.-To free the
United States army from its depend
ence for nitrates for the manufa cture
of explosives. Brigadier General Gro
zier, chief of the ordnance bureau, in
his annual report today says that the
government if necessary should de-
Velop the electrical processes of TAX
ing nitroglycerin from the air. The
country now is dependent for nitrateS
on the Chilean fields, which might be
cut off in time of war.
A store of sodium nitrate, piled
against sudden emergency, would no-
last any considerable time. More lib
eral handling of contracts with pri-
vate munitions plants is urged, to in
sure an adequate source of supply in
time of need. The accident of cir
cumstances," the general says, has
greatly increased American munitions
plants since the outbreak of the war
and, he says, the bureaus inquiries as
and the Willingness of the manufac-
the nations war resources have
brought satisfactory results, but fur
Their steps are necessary.
Because of lack of funds, there was
no increase except in field artillery
during the year, in reserve equipment
for the mobile army of $4,000 men
estimated as imme diately necessary as
in time of war.
Study of lessons of the European
war, the report says, has shown the
necessity of increasing the range of
heavy and light guns and of providing
more machine guns.

Inspection Fees Have Melted the State
$11O,796 This Year.

Oil inspection fees for the year just
ending have brought the state S123,-

Cumiskey, state oil inspector. The in

oil and gasoline and exceeded by 333,-

Had the oil companies not blocked
the operation of the state inspection
law through the payment of fees un-
der protest, the state would have real
lied net returns of $11O,79S.37 ac-
cording to the report. Most of the

tied up in litigation and the suit test
ing the constitutionality of the present

March.
From the gross fees of s123,30S29,
the state paid expenses of $12, 509.92.
The inspections for the year amounted
to 601,500 barrels of kerosene and
