British Sea Power.
("Times" Service). LONDON, Oct. 4. "The Times' " correspondent at Amsterdam states that the German press is pointing out that the campaign which smashed Serbia and opened up Constantinople caused Germany to under-estimate the influence of British sea power o the Continental war. The "Tages Zeitung" declares that the Germans are now realising how British sea power holds the Allies together, enabling the victorious prosecution of the war. The "Volk Zeitung," similarly commenting, adds: "Germans never rightly estimated the strength of the British Empire. Now they are unfortunately compelled to do so."
