Ho complained that, whereas the German nation backed German shipping, British shipping was not backed similarly. Tho British public had too long been hypnotised by tho German Navy. It was really German commercial voracity that had created tho German Navy,
Mr Potter, manager of tho ShawSavill Company, stated that the British lines trading to Now Zealand wore acting in .complete concert. Ho Loped that the delicate- negotiations would soon make a conference with tho Germans possible, thereby rendering a rate •war impossible.
