NEW YORK, March !6.-Si. Arthur
Trevor Dawson, a British ordnance ex-

pressed the opinion that the British
naval and military guns are superior
to the German.
THE Germans have their big guns
he said. .'but they are unwieldy

difficult to transport. The British have
plenty of lighter guns with grea t
radius and terrific force.
