An article by Lieut. Col. Rousset, a well- known French military writer, appears in the Daily Mail. Colonel Roast roscludos as follows:-German strategy has been watered down till now it represents a series of expediasta anggested by circumstances and which in swaged by events which it cannot control. The war of trench-digging to which the autoy has condemned himself, ia default of the realisation of his raster projects, is the negation of that military activity which alone can bring decisiva Tictory. By its persistence it shows
that the Germans have lost the strategic initia tive and that they are powerless to regnin it. The Germans, however, are not yet at the death-map. Germany's armour was too well tempered for us to hope to break it at one blow, Bat after six months of fighting we see it cracking and bending.

beginning of this campaign I spoke to the chiefs of year Navy, and when, we had made all neessary arrangements I said to them: Malte will be your base. You cau consider Malis to be a second Toulon." It is essential that the public should remember the motive which underlines all the policy of Grand Admiral von Tirpitz. The dominating factor in the war is the power of the Britian Navy, and the primary parpose of every fresh attempt the inva aion threat, raida by ses and air, and now the submarine bicckade, is to hamper the British Admiralty, and bring about, if possible, an alteration in the disposition of the Flect. As Captain Persius aid in connection with the new plan to use sub- marises against merebant vessels, it is it tended to saxist in digging the British Navy's grave. Therefore, it is necessary in this matter to contious to exercise patience and restraint.
