Berlin—The fall of (irand Admiral von Tir- i
pitz was the chief event in the German navy i
during the last twelve months of the war.
The changes this event brdught in the per- 1
sonnel of the navy, in the navy's influence in i
politic.* arid in the giving up of the submarine
war against merchant ships amount to a rev-
olution. But the chief thing von Tirpitz
pounded into the thought and action of every- J
one connected with the navy remained. That
was his aggressiveness. "Strike first and
strike hard was his motto and although the
chief has fallen, this motto remains.
Von Tirpitz was the originator of the sub-
marine warfare against merchantmen. His
chief opponent was the Chancellor von Beth-
mann-Hullweg. When the original change in
the submarine policy was made last fall von
I irpitz, whu wanted to resign, remained al-
;hough all his friends a section chiefs in the
navy were removed. T tie successors were sup-
po:-ed to be "anti-Tirpitzes".
One nl these new officer1 1 knew very well
through per onal contact every day in the
pre department. He came in, inspired with
man.v oI von i irpitz ideas, but because he was
bjought, in by a new regime fie was not overly
frendly to the grand admiral. Last March,
when von Tirpitz' resignation was accepted by
the Kai er, 1 wa? in the navy department talk-
■::i' 'o thi• oflicial. \ Mil I irpitz telephoned
end a «ed him to go for a walk in the Tier-
gdi'ten. A few weeks contact had made the
tv u intimate friends. I h. next day, I saw von
i irpitz. I here was nothing to indicate be had

year lor a principle a strong, agressive
'ia • . and he bad been . nee---•■!ul. lie was
confident that the spirit he iiad hammered, into
everyone connected with the navy would re-
main.
l! would be a mistake to say because von
I irpitz fell the navy fell with him. The navy
as strong and aggn- ive a Weapon as ever.
