BRITISH CONTROL
OF SEA FTRHER
Archibald Hurd. the Naval Expert, Says
That People Are Apt to Forget the
Importance Of the Navy.

London, june 22.-The necessity o.
keeping an eye upon the importance Of
sea power inNthe present conflict, despite
the close attention claimed by the land
battles, is emphasized by Archibald Hurd
the naval expert, writing in the Daily
Telegraph.
I'VE have been apt during the recent
oiiensives on the western front" Mr.
Hurd writes, "to overlook other aspects
of the war-notably the fundamental
factor, which is sea power. After pc
riod OF 10 months during which our
strength in ships has steadily declined.
the downward tendency has now been
definitely arrested. Not only is our sea
power increasing, but our grip on the
enemy is firmer than at any previous
period of the war.
Seven million tons of shipping enter
or leave our ports monthly. Each ship
is the target for enemy submarines, yet
there have been days in the present week
when the enemy has not secured 3 single
ship.
Twelve months ago we were with diff
hculty maintaining one stream of traffic.
namely, that which brought us food and
raw material. To-day supplies are flow
ing through this main artery IN greater
volume than a year ago. At the same
time another stream of traffic has started
and merchant shipping has been made
available for the greatest transport
movement which has ever been carried
out.
For three months past American
troops have been coming across the At
lantic by the tens of thousands, far fast
er than at one time was thought possible.
That means that the balance between
the allies and the central powers is being
adjusted in favor of the former.
Viewing the war in its various |
aspects, naval, military and economical |
ly, we have every reason for confidence.
The tide is distinctly turning, and turn
ing let us hope, for the last time. The
menace is being held. The
allied armies are increasing in relative
strength. The food position of this coun-
try, of France and of Italy is improv-
ing, and shpbuilding both in British and
American yards is proceeding at great
" accelerated pace. There is assurance
hat, by the end of December at least
100000 tons will have been put into
he water here and in the United States,
md that figure may be exceeded"
"on the other hand, the enemy's sink
ngs of British and allied tonnage have
'een so considerably reduced owing to
he activities of the allied nsvies and
he courage of their merchant seaman
hat it is practically certain there will be
balance of shipping on the right side. |
In a word the relative naval, mill !
airy and economic strength of the allies
) steadily increasing at a moment when
he enemy is feeling the cumulative eff. y
ects Of the blockade maintained over |
period of nearly four years with in.
reasing stringency and of the war on
md, which not only has resulted in
eavy casualties. but has drained the !
entral powers of industrial workers. I

PORTO RlCAN TOBACCO
CROP is CUT SHORT

San Juan, Porto Rico, July 6.-To-
bacco planters who have held their
crops to the present time in all pro-
liability will get as much for it as
the high prices realized last year when
prices made a new high record for
Porto Rico
Tobacco buyers during the past ten
days have suddenly realized that the
crop which originally they expected
would be the largest in the history Of
the Island had suddenly shrunk and
that instead of being $4,000, 900 or 40
100000 pounds 1t is not now estimated
to exceed 25,O0O,O0O pounds.
Prices have been advancing so that
a good many buyers now figure that
purchases made during the past week
have been on basis which will make
the price as high if not higher than
last years crop, which averaged in
many instances more than 40 cents a
pound or more.
