London, Dec. 3. (British Wireless.) A scathing denunciation of the per sonnel of the German navy was made by Admiral Sir David Beatty, commander-in-chief of the British grand fleet, in a speech addressed to a gathering of representatives of the first battle cruiser squadron on board the battle cruiser Lion, prior to its'departure for the Scape. Flow as an escort to the surrendered ships of the German high seas fleet. "We had expected them," said Ad miral Beatty, "to have the courage that we looked for from those whose work lies upon the great waters, and I am sure that the sides of this gal lant old ship, which have been wll hammered in the past, must have ach ed as I ached and as you ached, to give them another taste of what we had intended for them. "Their humiliating end was the proper end 'for an enemy who has proved himself sq lacking in chivalry. At sea his strategy, his tactics, and his behavior has been beneath contempt and! worthy of" a. nation which has waged war in the manner in which the enemy has waged war. "We know that the British sailor has a large heart and a short mem ory.' Try' to harden the heart and lengthen the -memory; and remember that the epemy which you, are looking after is a .despicable beast, neither more nor less. He is not worthy the sacrifice of the life of one bluejacket in the grand fleet, and that is the one bright spot in the fact that he did not come out."
