Germany Doomed by
U. S. War Entry Was
Prediction of Ballin
London, April 17 -The following
interesting letter from the lateNHerr
Ballin is reprinted from the Regis
ter of Adelaide, South Australia:
The death of Herr Ballin, the
great German shipowner, who com
mitted suicide upon the signing of
"the armistice, might almost have
been foretold by those who were
ware of a letter written by him, a
copy of which was recently received
in SYdney. It is dated December 4,
1917, and was addressed "to my dear
Herr Geheimrat" (understood to
- mean Privy Councilor Dr. Rathenau
of Berlin). It proceeds:
"What sorry lies have been dished
up to our people on the subject of
shipping. One reads of resounding
strokes of riveters as thevwork at
the creation of new leviathans for
our overseas commerce. Our yards
are only , working for the navy, and
as for other ships, we have not
material or accommodations and
above all. we have not the necessary
labor, skilled and unskilled. I almost
despair when, I think how different
) It all might have been.
"You and I were never advocates
of this fatal policy of unrestricted
submarine warfare. Yorf will re
member how I went to Berlin to
seek to stay the hatid of the authori
ties. I begged them to reflect and
they told me the country insisted on
It. This was not true.
"I pointed out how it would in
evitably draw America into the con
flict, and they pooh-poohed me,
imiled at America and scorned her
Ihreat. JJo they smile now?
- "Let me tell you that it is my opin
ion the entry of the United States
into- this struggle may spell absolute
, disaster for us; but if I am concern
ed about bur relations with the
United States, I am still more anx-
ious about our relations with Great
Britain. I realize as never before
that all the increase in our wealth, all
. the success which attended our en
terprises in the years before the war,
was owing to our intercourse with
the British empire. Her home ports,
her dominions and colonies, were
freely opened to our shippers and
traders. Sometimes I wondered at
this generosity, and even called it
folly. Is it to be imagined for a
moment that these old relations will
return?
' I am not to be supposed as say
ing one word in favor of Britian's
policy in this war. I believe that
he entered it frm some base mo
tives; but I am now only dealing
with the fact that by our conduct of
this war," by the insensate folly of
our 'pan-Germans and our unspeak
able press, we have turned her in
born dislike of us into loathing, so
cold and fierce and lasting, as some
times to make me tremble for the
whole future ot our economic exist
mce. . . (
"With a hostile British empire
tailed and fretted with our military
luccess, raging us losses, Hope
lessly alienated, how are we to pro
Mir. the raw material which that em
pire alone can su'pply? That great
empire is self-contained, and we are
not; and all the military victories
and all the will-o'-the-wisps about
Hamburg? to Bagdad win not neip us,
