SUGGESTION
GERMANY AND STATES SHOULD COMBINE
T0 CURB GREAT BRiTAiN’S CONTROL OF THE SEA
(Special to the Guardian.) iffnnal, hc said. It commences witll
MINNEAPOLIS, Fell. 1.--The sug-
gestion that the combined fleets of Germany and the United States could curb Great Britain in her arrogant policy of controlling the seas, was made hero to-day by Dr Bernharrd Dernsurge, former Colonial Secretary of the German Empire, in un address at the lunclleon of 'the Civic Associa- tion. Through a far flung line of naval stations, Great Britain, he said, made the world's shipping depend upoll her will, and through fortified points in Canada and island posses- sion:-vcontrollell the entrance to the harbours of the lllllted States. A nlarvellous chain ol’ British fortified cooling stations blocks up absolutely the Gulf of Mexico and the Panama
Bermuda, just about opposite Charles- ton, S.t?., the Bahamas commanding the straits betweell Key West and Havana, .lanluica the entrance to the (‘urribbean Seo, ami then you have Barbadoes. Trinidad, etc., that ships froln the United States nlust. pass on their way to South America, and it is not much better on the West side, where from the port of Vancollver tae whole Anlericall west coast is skirted. While it may be said that the world is doillg now its overseu trade on British colnmerce, there is a certainty that it can in future only do it by British permission if the British pro- gramme of destroying Germany and its fleet ill the long struggle is realised.

MONTill'l/\L, Jan. 30.-~/t llllondou
cubic, says:
ln leading fimllloial circles here the
prediction is being laude that the war will end lnuoh sooner than is comlllon- ly believed, owing to Gcrnlany's in- ability to support the financial strain. Next May is mentioned as the proba- ble date of thc ilcrman collapse.
These predictions arc based llpoll
deductions. Clutllccllor of the Exclle- quer, Lloyd George, as wus recently announced ill thc Lolldou papers. will soon go to I<`l'allcc to hold a conference with thc l'~‘rcu<'ll and Russian Minis- ters of l“inllln~e. lt. is generally uu- dcrstood tllat ll result of the confer- ence will be that Great Britain will undertake thellnancing of the Allies to an even greater degree than she has already done. though, ill respect to Russia particularly, she has already put her hand ill her pocket to no ill- cousiderablc extent.
The :lrgumelltxof those flnanciors
wllo predict an early conclusion of the war is that, when the three great al- `lied Powers limi -it necessary to com- bine in order to-meet from their com- mon resourccs the immense outlay re- quired to carry on thc war, Germany und Austria together cannot much loll- ger continue to find the sinews of war.
Germany, it is added, cannot hope
to obtain financial assistance.
in conversation yesterday with the
Ambassador of a great Power accre- dited to the Court ot' St. James, a cor- respondent lnentioned these financial predictions-. The Ambassador express- sd no opinion on this phase of the sub- ject, but nlade this remarkable state- nlcnt:
“I shall not bc surprised to find the
'l`eutonic Powers collapsing t’roln luck of amlnunllion. Frolll the lnfornlution at my disposal, l llln of' the opillion that Gcrnluny lnzlde only ont- great luistakc in her pl-eparntiolls fur this war. _
“it wus, however, ll cardinal one.
She undcr cstilllatcd the expenditure on ammunition which the contest would entail. lier preparations were enormous. My information is tllat the .whole of the last capital loan she rais- ed before the war was exnenflfvl “'~‘ in railway construction, as was assert- ed, but in the purchase of stocks of nlnlnunitloll, and she employed every possible means ,to prepare herself in this wa "
3.
“Just what the German prepara-
tions were, however, they were inode quote to the needs of this war, und there is cumlllativo evidence to_beal out thc reports that Germany ls ul- rcndy feeling the pinch and is hus- banding unlnlullllion."
in this connection, un interesting
story is being told. ill the early stages of thc war the Germans' lavish expenditure of shells was notorious. A single motor car observed on a road back ol’ the Allies' line was the target for ll terrific tornado lrolll Ger-
nlun guns.
A Ilritlsh officer who underwent the
experience oi` being thus sliellell, men- tioned the incident. to Lord hltchsner in the course of a visit I0 U10 WM' Office. Lord Kitchener, according t0 the story, merely observed:
"i would like to plli motor cars in
every road in Frallcc for litem to waste their money on."

1,oNnoN,' Feb. 1.-special orders
were issued by the police shortly be- fore eight o'clock to-night which caused the blinds to be drawn down all over London and the reports spread that five Zeppelin diriglble balloons were sighted over Dover making inland. Parts of the City ol’ London waited more than (wg ima;-5 with blinds drawn. but nothing hap- pened.
Inquiries elicited from the police
tllat orders to prepare for an air raid had been issued by the War Office. but
whether because the air craft were really sighted it is impossible to ascer- tain. A message from Dover reported that the ruiders had been driven off by gun fire from the f'orts. No details.
'l‘hin flurry served to break the
monotony of the news from thc battle fronts, where none of the armies elihcr in the east or west had been able to deliver tl blow sufficient to :suse u shift. '
Gel-man submarine attacks on Brit-
ish lnerchant ships continue to be the
paramount topic of discussion and pre- dictions are made that food prices which are already soaring will go still higher lf any more raids are accom- plisllcd. - Shipping on the West coast. is still somewhat upset, the Dublin Steam .Packet Co. announcing a temporary abandonment. of all sallings from Bel- Jast, to Liverpool and Glasgow. On the other hand the Dublin Co. also suspended sailings but other schedules are maintained. The chief Failma Great Britain finds ill the German sub- marine attacks is that the craft thus used cannot take part in regular naval operations. Out of the confllsefdgbt- .ng in the Csrpatllians which conti- nues comes nothing by way of decisive .onfiict and perhaps the most signffff cant news from the Eastern theatre
ls the theory from Petrograd that Field Marshal Von Hindenburg is planning another onslaught on the Russian .ines, first at Warsaw. Artillery duels have almost exclusively been the mea- sure of recent fighting in France and Belgium.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The indi-
an Bureau has given out an article by
cent assertion of Cato Sells, United .States Commissioner of llldlan Af-
,l'alrs, tlult the North American indian was not a. Mongolian was sustained. Mr. Parker ill his article says:
“There were native indians, Ameri-
can Indians, in America thousands of years before there were such races as the Chinese or Turtars. Mancllus or Turanians."
Continuing, he says: “There have been theories that the
indians were the lost Welsh colonists. that they were shipwrecked Japanese, and eyen the Ten Lost Tribes. Science has proved beyond question the fool- ishness of these theories and any text book used in school or college that re- peats these errors is now relegated to the heap of' out-of-date books.
“No ethnologlsts known to the writ-
el' believes that the indian is a sort of '/acclilnated Cllillalnell or a descendant ofthe Mongols of Asia, but we may be- lieve, and likely does, that the indian descendad from some parent stock .that produced the Mongol, and for that matter the Caucasian and negro.
"The American lndlall is the aborig-
inal American, and in his vrlous divi- sions constitutes what is known to scientists as the American race, the most widely distributed race lu the world. As such it inhabited two coa- tlnents, which is to say the entire New World of the Western iiemispllere."
DOMINION TRUST AFFAIRS.
VANCOUVER, B. C., Jan. 30.--Mr.
Andrew Stewart, liquidator for the Dominion Trust, was to-day named as llquidator for the British Columbia Se- curities Company, a subsidiary con- loern. It was stated in -court that the .Dominion Trust was supposed to have paid $250,000 cash for the capital ,stock of the British Columbia Securi- ties Company. lt is true that check for that amount was received, pur- porting to' be paid for the shares, but no further trace of the money can be found in the bank account or books ol' the company, except that on thc l`ol- lowing day the $250,000 check was re- ceived, a check for the same amount was paid back io the Dominion Trust Company purporting to be for some property. The suggestion is made that the whole transaction was a bo- gus one and the checks paid forward one day was passed back on the next. The Donlinioll Trust Company never have paid a cent for their stock.
