HELLOLAND AND KIEL.
AMERICANS AND THE HUNS. (Australian and N.Z. Cable Association) (Received Feb. 25. 9.35 a.m.) NEW YORK, Febk 12. The World's Paris correspondent states: "I learn that the report that Heligoland and Kiel must be dismantled is not soundly based. Americans tike the view that Germany's right of defence would be' interfered with regarding these two points. The Americans also feel that Kiel was' built by Germans and rund through Germany, and that it should therefore be left to the German Government to decide whether they wish it to be 'fortified.- Regarding Heligoland, Americans further disagree with Britain, contending that so long as the island remains German, if ' Ger.many wishes to fortify it, it is difficult to find justification against such action."
