A DEMOCRATIC SYSTEM.

[HC. Bywater In "The Observer.") London, September 12: Recent messages from Berlin telling of] naval manovres in the Baltic, together with photographs of ships taking part which have appeared in the London papers, serve as a reminder that Germany still has a navy, Compared with the major Acets it may seem insignificant, but there are clear indications that this small force is being developed to a high state of efficiency. The manceuvres that took place early in the present month are the third which have been held since the peace, and more ships were engag, ed this time than on either of the previous occasions. Under the Versailles Treaty the dimensions. In unveiling s cenotaph at Hull of the active fleet are rigidly Field-Marshal Sir William Robert- limited.

Hitherto, from motives economy, only a

part of this force has been maintained in com- mission. but the active fleet bas doubled in size since 1921, and will probably be at full strength A year or two hence. Its material is obsolete; all the battleships are pre-Dreadnoughts, averaging twenty years of age, and they are armed with 11-inch guns of an old pattern. Incidentally, a squadron of these ships fought at Jutland, and was hotly engaged for a brief period with Admiral Beatty's battle cruisers. Considering their feeble armament and poor profec tion, it is amazing that they should have escaped without serious damage...
