"OUR OWN REQUIREMENTS." NEW PLANS FOR THE FUTURE Berlin, Tuesday.—On the heels of yester- day s categorical reaffirmation of the Ger- man Government's unwillingness to consider a naval understanding with England comes high official intimai-ion that the future has a new German naval programme in store. It emanates from an impcrtant otrcial in the Imperial .)¡ asy Office, Privy-Admiralty Councillor Koch, one of Admiral von TiT- pitz's principal coadjutors in the adminis- tration of the Kaiser s Fleet. Writing in the Zeitechrift fuer Politik on the new tendencies of naval policy," Councillor Koch may's Our naval law is based essentially upon oar own requirements. Our Fleet is in- tended to guarantee us that peace with honour amid which our Fatherland for thirty-eight years has been able to develop in quietude. Since the passage of the first naval law in 1898 we have done nothing but build our ships and train our oihcers and men strictly within the confines of that law. In continuance of this procedure we aha 11 not ailow ourselves to be disturbed. "• We shall, moreover, consider it nothing but our own affair if in the future we should perhaps widen the provisions of that law. England aud the United States and every- body else will simpiy have to make the best of it. To that degree we pursue only our own inclinations, but the fact that other nation° are adhering to the same policy re- assuioo us that our policy is correct." The Anglophobe Hamburger Nachrich- ten is alarmed over the semi-otiicial phrase that an understanding with England ha* not been achieved up to the present hour." The Bismarckian organ says :— Hitherto our attitude has been one of uncompromising refusal to allow our liands to be tied by armament agreements with j •iher Power?, least of all with England, because such a coarse is beneath the dignity of the great and mighty people which guards jealously the right to direct its own affairs according to its own free will. Things seem different now. If the apparent abandonment of our former attitude is due to the influence of Heir von Bethmann- Hollweg, the new Chancellor, we hope be will soon find out that the German nation is not willing to follow him aiong the path for conciliation with England, which he haf marked out." The Vossischo Zeitung says Al- though no diminution of the Gorman navai programme can be expected, an agreement' with England would be possible after 1917. I-M Meantime both countries should strive to settle amicably all differences in all parts of the world.—("Daily Mail.")
