SAYS WAR WILL
 LAST FOR ONE
 HUNDRED YEARS
Son of English Admiral Sees Lengthy International StrHg
 gle CommencingN Fs

Berlin, Nov. 2O-Houston Stewart Chamberlain who, although the son
 of an Englis hadmiraf, has become a German, has contributed to one of the Hamburg newspapers a statement Of his views on the present and future relations between England and Ger many.
 He is convinced that the war be- tween the two countries will last for at least a hundred years.
 He does not mean, he explains, that the present fighting will co1lI1nue for so long time, but rather that an in- ternational struggle has commenced of which the world-war is but phase
 "The German word krieg.'" ob' serves MT. Chamberlain, means much more than the English word war or the French 'guerre.' It really signi- des an obstinante persistence in the endeavor to accom- pl1sh some pur- pose. In this sense, the war between England and Germany was long avert it, but in the end it was wan tonly brought about. Now we must steel ourselves, for the contest will be conducted as bitterly after peace has been concluded as it is being conduct ed now.'' n
 The Germans will easily mend their relations with Italy and Russia, de- c1ares Chamberlain France is likely to be a disturbing element, but he is convinced that force and sagacity will ultimately master that difficulty.
 With England, however, the matter is different. For the struggle between England and Germany is no mere fight for physieiaI ascepdancy. Each nation wfses to secure the acendancy for it's -philosophy. The essential aim of the English Weltanchauung is tha development of the will the German is devoted to xartistically directed Knowledge and action.
 s'irhe English philosophy produces energetic. able, but ignorant undisci- plined indiv llua1 whereas the Ger. man method produces great mental power in the individual and the obed- tent su omission of all to one great purpose. Thus, the average English man is not nearly so well educated as the German. and is less given to re-. hectfon.'' N
 A situation has now arisen, the writer contends. which will continue until one nation subjugates the other. for the two cannot possibly live on the same footing near and with one another. Diplomatic agreements and courts of arbitration cannot in any way affect such situation, for this is a Iar between two. ideals of life. and it must be fought out in war with hrear4ns and in peace with intellect uaI weapons E There is no need for hatred in this war says Chamberlain, land the German may properly perceive and acknowledge all the excellent things accomplished by the English method of life and thought
 'tBut it is impossible by any argu- ment or proof to conXtf1ce the Eng lshman that he and his race are not predestined to rule the earth. The only way to teach the English1nan that he is wrong is to compel him by force toSrecognize it. Once Germany holds the power in it's hands, it can permit tie English and others to fol- low the bent Of their own minds in their own sphere. But in the mean time Germany must be strong and in- nexib1e..s
