There is only one person in the Empire who has the power to begin it, and that person is the Frinio Minister, not necessarily this Prime Minister, but a Prime Minister. Until a Minister be found who is sufficiently well informed to know, and suf ficiently interested to care about this question the proscut Prime Minister, or any of his these qualities, then no doubt a beginning could be made, and the work of planning the defence
