Almost Cut OF.

France Is nov almost as completely
cut off from the privilege Of
with her neighbOfs by land as Is Great
Britain. To put Il in the reverse, she
is almost rs dependable on shipping
IS England. Before the war, accord
ing to the French ministry Of marine.
France imported by land 100000
tons annually, while last year her
imports by land amounted to only L.
100000. Inasmuch MS the total Of
imports in 1916 was 44,OOO,O 900 tons. the
proportion received by land Is very
small indeed. Inasmuch MS France is
ut present much less capable of liv-
Ing within itself than is England, by
reason OF h necessity particularly to
import metals and coal, it may fairly
be said that France Is even more de-
pendent upon maintaining her touch
with the sea than is England.
The French government Is co-operat-
ing with England in every possible
way to increase the production Of new
tonnage; but Frances contribution
must necessarily be small compared
to those of England and the United
States.
The French minister Of marine said
that Great Britain would shortly have
to recall n part of the 700 vessels
which she had lent to France. British
needs are increasing rapidly. and no
vessel will be recalled from the serv-
ice Of ar ally unless 1t is agreed be-
tween the two countries that It Is
more necessary to England than to the
ally.
The British nation before the war
was importing 5S,OOO.OOO tors Of goods
a year, which fell to 43,OOO,OO0 tons In
1916 and will be considerably further
reduced this year. Before the wal
foodstuffs represented less than 25 per
cent OF the imports; In 1916 ,wo-thirds
Of all imports consisted Of foodstuffs,
munitions OF war and the manufacture
Of war supplies.

Merchant Marine Is First Line of
Naval Defense in This
War.
ARE FEEDING MANY LANDS
English FreI0hters Fight U-Boats
While Neutral Craft Ply to Safe
zones-Half Tonnage Working
for France Sent by England.

LOndon.-An analysis or tho pres
ent status Of Great Britain's merchant
Heel as affected by the war will indi-
cate more clearly than n statement
heretofore issued the extent to which
tie merchant marine has been alb
sorbed into national service under The
Immediate control Of the government.
There is no or. semphatic proof
OF the measure In which England has
placed her resources at the disposal of
the war cause than this analysis Of the
merchant fleets disposition. British
ships are working for France. for Italy.
Tor the unfortunate neutral states that
would be threatened with starvation
X the allies did not help to keep them
alive. Troops, munitions, equipment,
Q supplies have been brought from
all quarters Of the world In British
ships, not exclusively for British CON
sumption, but for all of Brltain's al
lies and for neutrals. Without the
British merchant marine the worlds
international commerce would be al
most ut a standstill.
A famous authority on shipping and
navai affairs recently pointed out that
The merchant marine has become the
first line Of naval defense in this war;
and 1t Is literally true. A majority Of
merchant ships are now armed, and
therefore take the same chances as
warships. They are attacked by the
enemy on sight and they fight the en-
envy on sight.
Keep Out Of Danger.
Neutral vessels have sought the less
dangerous n Of operation and ply
their trade in waters far from the Ger
man submarine bases, where they may
reasonably be certain to remain un
mOlested. To the British merchant fleet
is left the uncomfortable duty OF serv-
ing In those waters where submarines
arc thickest, where mines are strewn,
where the Germans show the least con
Germ for humanity, where every hour
and every mile represents the serious
chance of death and destruction.
The French ministry of mercantile
marine has issued a statement which
sets forth the condition Of the French
merchant feet. 1t is stated that the
French merchant marine amounts to
$4, 1877 900 tons, of which 100000 tons
has been loaned to France by Great
Britain. Thus 1t appears that half the
tonnage working for France Is furnish
ed by Great Britain. This Is particu-
larry interesting In view Of the WELL
known fact that French shipping has
been dealt with rather tenderly by the
German submarines.
The greatest Of French shipping COR

to give ofense In this quarter. Second
ly, 1t Is q matter of frequent note that
