stag Debate Weakens
Nation Abroad.

Berlin, March 49, The resignation
Of Grand Admiral Won Tirptz is TO be
regarded less in the light of its bear
ings on the submarine campaign than
as an affair Of international politics.
Not the question of how and TO what
extent the submarine weapon was to
be used, but the question Of the homo
genelty of the German government is
involved IN the resignation Of the
powerful statesman. who, for almost
twenty years, has ruled the German
Navy Department with an autocratic
sway, and has suffered no interference
or supervision from without
This statement by careful. well
posted observer Of German politics re-
garding the causes and results of the
retirement OF Admiral Won Tirpitz is
borne out by the turn which the con
troversy over this withdrawal is now
taking. The Conservatives and Nation
al Liberals, who have been IN ad-
mitted open opposition 20 the Imperial
Chancellor almost since the outset Of

Admiral Won Tirpitz with kilograms Of

Reichstag, who is regarded as spokes-
man for this element. and who some

DR.. Won Bethmann-Hollweg. IS the lead

On the other hand. the elimination
of Admiral Won Tirpitz seems 20 have
brought the administration solidly be-
hind the Imperial Chancellor, the Ba-
varisn Ministry, the influence Of which
is second only to that Of Prussia. hav-

as by their form they might awaken

that the Reichstag, in the Immediately

parallel to the extraordinary rise
witnessed two years ago on the day
that hostilities began. Transactions
to-day, as then, were on large scale
measured in millions of bushels.
1t was the view that the end of
the war had perhaps been greatly
fastened which in the main brought
about to-day's big drop in quota
