GERMANY’S PEACE FLEET
To the amazenment of the world the Germans, after only three years’ work, we are told, have an almost brand-new fleet of some two and three-quarter million tons afloat, which is said to be practically one-half of the total shipping 1 they- possessed before the. war. This new fleet, which is designed to wage a relentless trade warfare against all others, is des'-ibed as being splendidly organised on a system of national cc-operation never before seen and it is '‘backed by the whole pha!ax of Germany’s groat industrial trusts.” The two most important German shipping lines, the Hamburg-Amerika and the North German Lloyd, are said to be loaders in the remarkable new system of highly organised trusts which characterises the new Germany, and its watchword is cited as being “national industrial co-operation-” Around them are grouped a score, of other German shipping Anns, we are told, and thev all recognise tbo principle of “national collaboration in a united effort to bring Germane to the front again,’’—Timaru Herald.
