BRITISH FLEET

for Use II Desired,

LONDON, April ls-The British
naval success against German mine
sweepers in the Cattegat recently, says
the Daily Telegraph, is sufficient
answer to the Germans, who say that
the British grand fleet Is in hiding.
Following the British fleet in the
Cattegat with the German raids in the
straits OF Dover, the Daily Telegraph
points out that while the Germans in
their bases on the Belgian coast are
only twenty miles from the straits, the
exploit in the Ca,teeat as a carefully
planned operation conducted more than
500 miles from the nearest point on
the British coast
Shows Real Control.
"Such a sweep" Il adds, "can be made
only by power In real control OF tho
sea confronted by an enemy who will
not risk protecting his small craft. sus.
pecting that such Intervention might be
the prelude 10 a'general action which
he desires TO avoid. The Germans had
large naval forces near the scene on
this particular Monday. They did moi
send them out but on the contrary, per
mited ten Iawlers TO be destroyed virtu-
ally under their very eyes"
The newspaper then discusses the
theory that the German might be invit.
ing naval action near their mine field,
and coast defenses and says that ali
such suggestions have no foundation
among those who have knowledge Of tn,
naval conditions
