 E0LATING ENGLAND
German Newspapers Exultant in The Conviction That the Foe
 Will Be Starved
(New York Times)

England has again become 3 real island, asares etaoinhrdluuo real, island as a result of the activi- ties of German submarines, says Willy Pastor, German publicist and member of the staff of the Der liner Tagliche Rundschau, in an article found in a copy of that pa per recently received in London.
 Formerly it was not really an island, as innumerable floating bridges connected it with all parts of the world, with Canada and Cen tral America, Australia, India, and South Africa, but now, according to the German writer, it has been forced into it's old insular position.
 The German submarines, says Pastor, have forged their devils ring around the island. Old Eng land is uneasy. She reckons her tonnage her armaments, her guns mounted fore and ait, but oA the other side of the Channel, wee iA week, two new submarines q
 newest design appear, boats wit
 creasing tonnage, increasing speed and armament There need be no danger, he tells his readers. Ger many will help herself
 "She has done so from Liege right to Bucharest" writes Herr Pastor. ''So unbroken is her pow CT, so Christian and humane her sentiments, that even in the midst of her victorious career, she offer ed peace. As answer she received a decided refusal from tho Boxer with the mask of humanity on his face, the darling of all hypocrites, and all mutilated souls. The Boxer would not listen. We shall now think of all that has happened and our thoughts will make us deaf to every cry of death out there on the seas. German barbarity! If it is German barbarity you have un- chained it, and now you can. feel what it is like.'
 Dr. Gustav Stresemann, one of the leaders of the National Liberal party, said, as quoted in the London Times:
 ''Everything that can possibly happen to us in the way of diff culties as the result of the inter- vention of another state, and all the possible economic losses of Ger many, do not weigh against the pos sibility of bring down England. Our bitterest enemy, who made the war into world-economic war, is now himself feeling the consequences In this economic war we are now talk ing the offensive, while England Is put on the defensive, and Lloyd George has to announce what foods, hitherto regarded in England as in dispensable, can no longer be i'm ported.
 England is now experiencing, more acuttely and more rapidly the difficulties which we experienced. Herr Zimmerman expressed in a conversation firm confidence that the submarine weapon would soon bring us peace, and bring it this summer. That is no mere senti- ment of the moment. England is much more defenseless against such an offensive blockade than Ger many was against the economic war. Nothing can go to England
