Russia has some German destroyere, and might have had more but for the out- break of hostilities. Greece also has one or two, and so has Tar- key. But in no navyexcept, of course, that whose insotion Admiral von Tirpita directa is there a modern German built light cruiser or armoored ship. All the foreign Admiralties who desired craft of these types have come to as, except_the Ar- gentina and, latterly, Greece, Greece has a battleship building in France, as well as two light araisore and some destroyers in' Great Britain, It never was' difficult, of course, to see why German ships were unpopular with foreignere, Navel anthorities abroad do not, perhaps, distrust German naval shipbuilders; but they have naturally very great faith in our people-whose ex perience is, they realise, vast. The facts of the naval warfare to date can only have the effect of strengthening the confidence of |foreign_ Admiralties in British naval shipbuilding, for German craft of practically all the types which have been tried have proved to be far from strikingly efficient units. The destroyers are neither faster nor more pow erfully armed than our own. Our light ornisers have higher speed, longer range, and greater de atractive power than the corr sponding units in the German Nary. So bave our battle cruir- ers, as the recent running fight scross the North Sea demonstra}- ed. Most of us know that, of course. We did not give any more heed to the German tales of their speed and powers of de straction than we did to the similar boastings from the same" quarter phout other alleged miracles of "German" naval architecture. Probably, if our people had taken the trouble to put the truth before foreign conn tries, they would have been dis believed. Their motive would have been regarded as suspect, The recent North Sea test will, however, put the matter right, for it is exactly that sort of evidence: which outsiders prefer. Judging from the official account, the British battle oruisers were highly efficient, for they bore & preponderating striking power at a superior speed to the decisive point.
