GERMAN NEED OF BELGIUM.
VIEWS OF VON TIRPITZ. BASE FOR SUBMARINES. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Eecd. 8.15 p.m.) AMSTERDAM, Jan, 29. Admiral von Tirpitz said in a newspaper interview that Germany required the military occupation of Belgium to establish submarine bases there, and prevent the British and Americans from renewing their attacks. The world, in future, would be divided between Continental Europe in one camp, and England and America in an opposing camp. "We must force England to give us what we need," he said. "We can hold out longer than England and her friends."
