Secretary.
Special DespdtcA TO The SrS.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The subma-
rtne has ceased to be a determining
factor in the war. 1t Ia menace and
will remain a menace SO long as even
one ship Is sunk. bur 1t no longer is a
factor which can have a determining
effect on the final issue"
Secretary OF the Navy Daniels made
ton was called to the Kaiser's boastful
statement to the German people con-
corning the C-poats and their ability.
Mr.. Daniels admitted that there was
time when the United States ard the
Allies were seriously alarmed about the
ravages of the U-boats. This referred
presumably to the spring OF last year.
when s.nkings during April and May
were nearly million tons a month,
and difficulties in coping with the sub
marines as well as initial difficulties in
speeding up shipbuilding al! were to
, the advantage Of the enemy.
But this condition has steadily
changed 10 the advantage OF the United
States and the Allies. The s!nkings
have steadily fallen OF. the means for
coping with the submarines have proved
more and more efficient. and sh!pbuld-
IIIk mas progressed even more speedily
than was hoped for.
1t is admitted here that the subma-
rines are almost certain to infiict incon-
sequent!al losses for some time to come
but even the isolated cases where large
ships may be sunk will not be OF real
importance when viewed with regard to
the magnitude of the war programme

The German Crown Prince has used
practically all his reserve troops, some
of them twice. and Crown Prince Rup-
prechts reserves have been diminished

10 the necessity to reinforce the Ger
man Crown Prince.
The total German force on the battle
front IL now estimated at 20l divisions
OF q probable maximum strength q
1880 each, which means about 1900
fighting men to division. 1t is esti-
mated to-day that half Of the German
reserves have been used up
While having a superiority of reserves.
II is not meant that the Allies are nu-
merically superior Since July Is the
Germans have thrown seventy-one divi-
sions into the Marine battle and they
were hurled back almost half the dis
lance TO the Aisne. Their positions seem
to be In great danger at present, espe-
cially their communications to the Aisne
and In the pocket" where all roads
continue to be swept by allied FIRE.
From the point Of view OF the allied
commanders the longer the enemy delays
his retirement from the salient the Verso
u will be for him. since keeping men
there simply means an opportunity for
allied sunners to slaughter them.

the German position II TO he found In
the German press. which now refers 70
the unprecedented activity of tho allied
air forces. which the newspapers say are
nienacing tho German lines Of conimuni-
cation in tho Marine pocket and also

The Germans have not yet lost the
initiative entirely. and It 10 not outside
the bounds Of probability that they may
undertake a fresh offensive on the west

kans But every day that passes re-
duces the chances for such an offensive

more vote would be necessary before

The vote asked Is the largest In ths
history OF the country. It is intended
for the carrying on OF the war until the
end Of October.
The Chancellor said the expenditure on

the last financial year was 81 1892. ooo. 900
from allies and fI94,00o. 900 from the

the assistance given to Italy said the
Chancellor, because the German Gov
eminent has spared no effort TO create
the impression that italy is being util-
lied and exploited by all the alliance,
especially Great Britain.
IN 1916 Great Britain agreed to give
the Italian Exchequer n monthly credit
to be used to help Italian exchange. A
similar contribution is being made BY
America. and France will also help
