South China Morning Post. The Fow Furtive Submarines, The news about German marines to-day is pretty good for as though rather disconcerting perhape for the enemy. It is noW a certainty that for some months past the German submarine polioy bus failed. No fees a person than Captain Persius, the German naval expert, he confessed in the Berliner Tageblatt that the eabmarine campaign has not been the success hoped for, though he declared that the German publio ought to be satisfied in view of the many difficulties attending such warfare, The German public, it seems sro far from satisfied. They appear to find the sinking of passenger ships not nearly no mach to their liking as the destruc- tion of warships, and have not been keeping their opinions to themselves. Therefore Captain Persius has reproved them in this fashion: "Only a child would accuse the British of being bad Komen. They know how to de. fend themselves, so they devised many kinds of protective mea- mures. It becomes moro and more difioult for U boats to get near hostile ships and launch a tor pedo. Almost fabulous skill is required to avoid all the pitfalls, get away from torpedo destroyera and nevertheless make a success-' ful attack,"

The Press Censorship. Despite the repeated assurances of the Government that there has not been any attempt to conceal the true situation of affaire from the public, there is a steadily grow- ing distra-t of the Press Censor- ship in England. Introduced as soon as the necessary repressive legialation coald oarried through Parliament after the. outbreak of war, the people accepted it in a spirit of patriotio <elf-aaorifice under the impression that it was essential to the overthrow of a particularly astute foe. This attitude on the part of the nation" was at once a sign of ita earnestness and of its readine.. to reposs complete confidence in those entrusted with the heavy harden of directing the affairs of State at a time of grave peril. But, as invariably happens when freedom in any form is surren- dered, the new powers with which Authority was invested wore based. The nation was kept in Cimmerean darkuess as to the events which were taking place in the field of war. Newspaper correspondents

prevent- ed from approaching the front, and only the most colourless and laconic dispatches were issued for publication from the Commander- in-Chief. Weeks elapsed before any intelligible or connected Becount of engagements found their way into print, and the beroic deeds of our gallant soldiers in the greatest war that han ever scourged the World were allowed to "unhonoar.
