One German Faction
May Make Demand for

Amsterdam, Jan. 9.-Press versions
Of what American Ambassador Gerard
said at the recent banquet of the Amer
lean Association of Commerce and
Trade have aroused violent denunciation
from the advocates of ruthless subma-
rinings, according to Berlin dispatches
today.
Count Won Reventlow, leading advo-
cate of the Won Tirpitz system of un-
limited use of submarines, was quoted
in these dispatches as declaring that the
American ambassador "must nave lost
all sense of diplomatic propriety in thus
meddling in .Germany's internal af-
fairs -
Other leaders of the Vons Reventlow
type were said to besurging a demand
by Germany for Gerard Is recall, on the
ground that his expressions Of opinion
as to the continuance in office of GER
tain German leaders of the coneiliatory
group exceeded his prerogatives.
That part OF Gerard IS speech to which
the Won Tirpitz adherents violently OBJ
iected, as reported by the official press
bureau and sent out by wireless, read:
Never since the beginning of the
war have the relations between Ger
many and the United States been as
cordial as now / personally am
convinced that as long as Germany IS

friend, the chancellor and DR.. Hellferich

Haltzendorff and Won Mueller; by Gen
erals Won Hindenburg and Ludendorft
and, last, but not least, by my friend
Zimmerman, the relations between the
two countries are running no risk"

Young Cody was only 10 when he left

GERMANY s NlVY
No MORE A menace
Great Guns Captured by
Byng Reported TO Have
Come from BattleShip
UNITEDSTATES
COAST NOW SAFE

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.--Germany's
navy is no longer a menace. The black
threat of a dash into tho North Sea and
thence across the Atlantic against the
American coast, has disappeared.
This is the deduction Of the Navy De-
partment made as the result Of infor-
nation received in detail from the Brit
ish front near Cambria. II is q de-
duction that, II founded upon sound
premises, VIII release the bulk of the
United states Navy from the duty @;
guarding our Atlantic coast and will
enable the Board Of Strategy to hurl
these ships against the submarine
bases OF Zeebrugge when the time
shall come for that great effort.
The information from Cambria is to
the effect that most Of the great guns
captured by the British in General
Byng's titanic assault were naval guns
They have been Identified since as
coming from battleships Of the nrsi
class Of the German high seas fleet.
This means that the German fleet
has been disman;cd so far as its
heaviest guns are concerned and that
the German high command has con-
cluded definitely that IT, is useless to
attempt sea manoeuvres upon any ex-
tensive scale during the course Of the
var. The picture that present itself
TO the minds Of the strateglsts in the
Navy Deaprtemnt Is of battleshlps and
cruisers lying behind the defcnces Of
the Kie Canal stripped Of their guns
and ammunition It is a picture OF
Won Tirpitz. despairing Of sea battle
and trusting wholly TO submarines and
an occasional camoulage raider.
The fact that tho ships may be dis
mantled does not make less dlnlcult
the task OF digging them out. The six
teen-inch rifles Of Iielgoland and the
widely cast mines along the Belgian
and German coasts still are obstacles
sufficient TO give pause TO any navy.
But zeebrugge. according TO Ameri-
can strategists. Is an, easter nut TO
crack II the allied British. French
and American land forces shall silence
the big German guns on the coast,
there is no insuperable obstacle TO the
cleaning out Of the vipcr's nest Of
submarines by a combination feet Of
allied cruisers and destroyers.
That is the good news read between
the news from Byng that and the
freedom OF the American coast from
danger of attack by German battle
ships.
