AMSTERDAM. Nov. so. - Ger
mans are attempting to secure en-
tire control of the Dutch mercantile
marine during and after the war.
Holland having no iron and steel
for ship construction or repair is
obliged 10 obtain these materials
from Germany, writes the special
correspondent here or the London
Times. The conditions imposed by
Germany for supplying iron and
steel place Dutch shipbuilders at
the mercy OF the Germans, he as
serts.
All the Dutch shipyards receiving
German iron and steel are under
contract TO the Germans 70 make a
return Of all details connected with
ship construction and repair and
with the ultimate destination OF the
vessel, such as the person to whom
the shipbuilder contemplates selling
These particulars, which ar OF the
most comprehensive cha-~-cter are
exacted not only concerning seas
going vessels, but also in the case OF
the smallest boats for inland water
traffic. Any dispute arising has to
be settled by a German court at
Essen.
