SINKING GERMAN SHIPS.
DESIRE OF AMERICA.
PRESIDENT'S ENDORSEMENT.
Australian and N-Z- Cable Association. (Reed. 9.15 p.m.) NEW YORK. Doc. 21.
The Paris correspondent of the Now York Sun slates that Mr. Wilson favours the destruction of the surrendered German Navy, and will insist that the United States Navy shall ho eotial to the greatest navy in the world. . The United States desires the sinking of the German Navv for two reasons. The first is that it will be a great moral act, and the second that the division of the German fleet among the Allies according to their naval losses will give Britain the lion's share, thus compelling the United States to build 16 more warshios in order to carry out the contemplated programme for a navy equalling the greatest navy in the world.
