GERMANY AND ENGLAND

PRINCE BULOW ON THEIR RELATIONS.

AN INTERESTING BOOK. (By Cable.—Press Association—Cooyrigbt.) (Received November 30th, 5.5 p.m.) BERLIN, November 29. The most interesting part of Prince Bulow . forthcoming work, "Germany Under William tho Second," relates to the attitude of Britain and France towards Germany. France, the Prince says, would attack Germany if and when strong enough. England would only attack Germany if she concluded she could oarry through vital economical and political «interests against Germany by force. The mainspring of England's political attitude is national egotism; France's national idealism. "Now," proceeds the Prince, "with Germany possessed of sufficient powerful naval defence, her relations with England can bo genuinely and unreservedly friendly. The Kaiser has laboured whole-heartedly to establish a good relationship between the two countries. "Germany's position is changed, compared with fifteen years ago. Then the problem was how to avoid a conflict with. England until the fleet was built. In those days, Germany _ foreign policy was subserved to the- armaments problem. Now, a correct relationship ha., been, re-established, and armaments subserve to foreign policy. She needs no longer to anxiously avoid injury to her safety, either by land or sea, at tho bands of England, but may throw her power into the scales for the defence of her honour and interests against England at sea; as she did for centuries against Continental Powers on land." Prince Bulow attributes to William 11. personally, in 1897, tho conception of a great fleet.
