BERLIN, June 5, by wireless
to Sayville. —An authoritative ac-l
count of the North Sea battle
which was issued here today
gives the first detailed picture of
the progress of the great engage.
ment between the German HighI
Sea Fleet and that of the British.
Many details of the engagement‘
are suppressed for strategic reag
sons. The recital. however, meets
clearly what is characterized as‘
the British attempt to explain de-
feat by the statement that the
German sea forces in the action
were much larger than those
which thme British were able to
bring into play.
This account. as given out to-'
day by the Overseas News
Agency. declares explicitly. that
26 of Admiral jellicoe's most pow-
erful battleships. including six of
the most modern Queen Eliza-
beth class and the entire British
flying wing. composed- of battle
cruisers equal in every respect ex-
cept armor protection to dread-
noughts were engaged in all but
the early stages of the day battle.
The fleet thus assembled surpass-
ed in tonnage and weight
broadside: the German force en-
gaged. was at least equally mod-
ern and was far speedier than, the
squadron of German pre—dread-
noughts which. lumbering along
at 18 or 19 knots. were soon left
far 10 the rear by their swifter;
consorts. out of the main action.l
For obvious reasons the recital I
leaves untold the tale of damages I
sustained by German units and
the losses in personnel. 1
It says nothing of the bril-r

It is shown that the Germans;

the modern British giants are
armed Furthermore. they are far
superior in rapidity of ‘fire. Naval
experts have intimated to The
’Associated Press that this was
. one of the most decisive factors in
the titanic struggle. German
battleships and battle cruisers
were able to shower the British
with a hail of shell which, at a
range of eight miles and some-
times even closer. smashed and
riddled British armor belts and
wrought havoc to ships’ vital.
The ponderous British projectiles
naturally were no less effective. .
