The Present Situation in GERMANY.

When / left Germany on April &c
the situation was this: Food was
meager but sufficient, the only
anxiety being the coming harvest,
which no one could forecast. The
supply of milk was about so per
cent. of normal There was over
IS per cent. the usual number OF
mich COWS, but on account Of a par.
tial failure In fodder crops, and in-
ability to import cattle foods, the
supply of milk had decreased about
40 per cent. The health of the Ger.
man people was generally above
normal, including the men at the
front. The most significant fact was
the decrease oil infant mortality,
which both in Belgium and Germany
vas lower than ever before In the
history OF the country.
This was the situation the latter
part Of April. The latest definite
news as TO food and health in Ger.
many is from Herr Won Batocki, the
food minister OF the German empire.
and the highest food authority. who
said on June %, just two months

"The news is quickly known. and
from every house women, children

and when the stock Ia exhausted a

Time enough has not elapsed 20
give us the facts Of the great sea
battle between the English and the
German fleets. Perhaps enough ne
yer will elapse TO give rs all the
facts. The first news arriving through
English sources frankly called Il a
great disaster aud ascribed II TO
"the low visibility OF The German
navy. II was also stated that the
public was stunned by the disaster.
Twelve hours later came another
report which while admitting still
greater losses assured the public
that nevertheless the engagement
must be regarded as a victory Then
a day later we are assured that the
English ships we're net surprised
but that a mere fra,@n OK the
British North Sea flect had gone out
hunting a fight, bad met the full
battle fleet strength OF Germany and
had given it an awful drubbing At
the same time Germany issued a
statement giving the English losses
exactly as the British admiralty had
given them, except that the War
spite also was said to have been
sunk. II Is therefore interesting 70
know just what did happen and 1t
Is therefore not without interest
that one may take the known facts
that Is those admitted by both SIDES.
and from them proceed to deduce
the probable facts of the case. The
probable loss ia ships is not difficult
TO establish. Germany lost the Wies-
baden. q new battle cruiser. the
Frauenlob, a small cruiser, the Pom.
mern. an old cruiser, and the Luet-
COW, a new cruiser. with at least
four torpedo boat d~estroyers, bring
Ing the total tonnage destroyed to
possibly $4,000 tons. The English
lost the Queen Mary, one Of her
newest and most powerful battle
cruisers, the Inyincible and the In
defatigable, also powerful battle
cruisers, three other cruisers and
eleven torpedo boat destroyers. The
Monmouth was torpedoed and badly
damaged. The Warspite was badly
hurt by gun fire. It is admitted,
while the Germans claim she was
sunk. In tonnage the English loss
was not less then I33, 900 and prob
ably 157, 900. England admits the
loss OF Rear Admiral Hood, Rear Ad-
miral Arbuthnot. four fleet captains
and at least 1000 men. Germany
seems to have lost no officer OF
considerable rank and England plac-
es the German losses at 1000 men.
Therefore there can be no question
as to which side got tie worst of
ii. A. TO what constitutes a theoret
ical victory, as 10 which side retired
Is absolutely yalueless, unless such
retirement led to other valuable re-
suits, and In this case it is not
claimed that any such advantage
was gained.
1t strikes us the point of greatest
interest is just this. How were the
fleets matched, which preponderated
In ships and guns, and ship for ship
aud gun for gun did England make
good her proud boast of naval SUI
prenacy? Here, unfortunately. the
record is not clear. England claims
only q fraction Of her North Sea
aeet was engaged. Germany says
1t all was engaged while only a part
of her own was in action. One must
doubt the latter part OF that state
ment. Her naval base was toe close
at hand for any considerable part Of

her forces not to appear on the
scene at such a crisis. The English
North Sea fleet has been divided In.
to two divisions. The northernmost
under Admiral Jellicoe, the southern
charged with protecting the channel
under Admiral David Beatty. Second
under Beatty was Rear Admiral
%Arbuthnot. Jellicoe and Beatty were

were killed. No clearer clrcumstan
tial evidence could be found &c
establish the fact that there wal
a union Of the two tleets. II so II
was the entire English North Sea
fleet against probably Germany's full
strength. Again in that case there
can be no doubt that the English
carried into action much the large
force.
AS TO superiority in seamanshi
and accuracy OF gun fire we mus
again run into the field OF clrcun
stantial evidence. Had the Englis
fleet been surprised aud thus take
at a disadvantage the disparity II
losses might be explained withou
impeaching the efficiency Of the Ii
glish, except possibly in regard /
negligence. but the British admlralt
not only denies that theory with
heat that raises suspicion but az
serts that the English fleet was gu
looking for a fight. II that be true.
is useless for her to talk 0. the "lov
line Of visibility. II Smith anC
Jones go out after birds and Smitl
returns with seventeen while Jone
brings in six. Jones may say tina
the birds low line OF visibility
the underbrush, or the fog kept hi
from getting more, but a disintereste
judge would be apt to conclude thu
the same difficulties must have o.
Cured TO Smith. IL, as the Englis
say, the entire German fleet wa
present, there could be no plea tina
there "a not plenty to shoot al
and the. fact that the score was Nc
better must be charged to some othe
cahse. Whether the English nav
has been greatly ogerestimated is
question upon which We can giyt
no valuable opinion. There are thOs,
even in England, who have long hel,
that idea and have not been SLOW
TO express it. England's bumptiou,
idea about the inviHcibility of he
navy is no new thing. She has
maintained it ever since the de
struction Of the Great Armada, whicl
by the way was chiefly destroyed
by a tornado. In two wars we beal
her every time the forces were any
where nea equal. In fact in 1914
her admiralty issued orders thai
our ships lei not to be given bat
tie unless her force was superior
But the question of human interest
is not whether the Engllshman is a
capable and brave sailor or whether
England has a great navy. All will
admit that. But it is rather whether
the new ind untried German navy
has had carried into 1t that thorough
ness and efficiency which is the chieI
characteristic of Germany and
whether that fact nay not some day
give not only Eng, nd but the world
something else to think about apari
from perfect regiments and impregn
able forts. In the meantime Eng.
land has not claimed the low line
Of visibility violates the laws OF
nations and Mr.. Wilson has not
asked Germany to stop il.
