AN EASTERN NÁVY.
THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH FRIDAY, APRIL 3, 1903.
cut for the conversion of the Royal Indian Marine into such a farce. We have ourselves
A year ago Mr. Demetrius Boulger contri-repeatedly urged that the time has come when buted to the Contemporary Review an article entitled." An Eastern Navy," in which he in- cidentally, suggested that India might "create and possess an efficient Navy of her own." But the main purpose of the article was to urge that from among the lascars of Western India, and the maritime population of the Mainy Peninsula and Southern China, a force of sailors might be created to make good the alarming deficiency of men in the Royal Navy. If we remember aright, Mr. Boulger proposed that the force should in the first in stance he utilised na stokers in our warships in the East; but he also contemplated their ultimate training in all the duties of an; able sexman.. The proposal, in the form in which it was at first advanced, was certainly not deserving of light dismissal. There are many objections in it, and some of Mr. Boulger's large assump tions reed much qualification; but there is considerable force in his broad contention that we are leaving unutilised
A LARGE BODY OF SEAFARING MEN specially Gtted to perform certain duties on
board ships stationed in the tropics. We would except, however, the Chinese; we hope the day
may never come when Grent Britain will rely unan Chinese to make up the complement of a single warship. They are too dangerous a me to introduce into the Navy. Nor is Mr. Roulger's contention regarding lancars admissible as he thinks it is. A journal which has so often pleaded
the cause of that honest and hardy race of sea- faring men need not fear that it will be accused of injustice towards them when it frankly ex- presses a belief that the Royal Navy should continue to be manned exclusively by English. men. The Royal Navy is "the salt of the earth;" it is Great Britain's first line of defence; upon it the existence of the Empire depends; and the burden of manning it should fall on Britonsalone, It will be a bad day for England when her own marine have to rely for help in manning the Fleet upon any other race. There are other and more practical difficulties which Mr. Boulger has not stopped to consider. He recognise, as all Imperialists must do, the splendid place which the Native Army of India holds in the military forces of the Empira and he sees no reason why the same principle should not he applied to the Navy also. He- forgets that native regiments, though they fight shoulder to shoulder with British tmaps, remain
it is necessary to consider whether the patroll- ing of the Persian Gulf should not be handed over to the Royal Indian Marine. The Gulfin the hot weather is no place for British bluejackets, as the sick lists show very forcibly. But before such a question enn be considered, the objec- tions of the Admiralty must be overcome, for at present the Royal Indian Marine is neither fish, flesh, nor fowl. The financial aspect is even more insistent. If Mr. Boulger wants money for the maintenance of a cruiser, he might have asked, not for help from the depleted. coffers of Indian princes, but for the £65,000 which the Government of India continue to Defence Squadron spend annually upon a which has ceased to fulfil modern naval requirements. But the sum spent on the Defence Squadron will not suffice to convert the Royal Indian Marine into a combatant service. New ships would be required, and it is not very clear where the money could be obtained. India, which at ́present has her interests in the Gulf protected by the
Royal Navy at very moderate cost to herself, would not be very eager to create a Navy to do work which the Admiralty at present perform fairly cheaply. The Lords of the Ad- miralty would probably object to a grant from the British Exchequer for the maintenance of A Navy in the Indian Ocean; and the plea that

House of Commons complaisant. The whole question, it will be perceived, bristles with difficulties; for if India's contribution to the Royal Navy is small, her contribution to the and forces of the Empire is disproportionately large in comparison with the Colonies. All that we are inclined to say at present is that while Mr. Boulger's proposal for the utilisation of lascars is sound enough, it should be carried out, if at all, in conjunction with a develop. meat of the Royal Indian Marine; and we are still hopeful that the potentialities of the Marine will be eventually recognised. the scheme must be financed by Government ; we want no begging from princes for such a purpose.

..men.
We hald, for these and other reasons, that the introduction of lascar seamen into the Royal 'Navy is at preset neither practicable nor desir. able. But another part of Mr. Boulger's pro- posal is the creation of a separate Eastern Navy, and he elaborates this scheme in a brief article in the curren' number of East and West.
His idea is that the nucleus of such a Navy should be formed by the ruling princes of India. He appeals to them to subscribe half a million sterling for the purchase of a second class cruiser, to serve ny” a training ship for Indian Naval officers and bluejackets." The ruling princes of India, in spite of all their loyalty, are not likely to take very much notice of Mr. Boulger's appeal; but we sincerely hope that no other misguided enthusiasts will take upon themselves the advocacy of such a proposal. The practice of appealing to the princes of India on all sorts of occhelons, reasonable and unreasonable, has in these days become very much overdone.

Those princes who have not already done so can find a suitable opportunity by adding to the land forces of India. They are' not, as a rule, enamoured of the sea; and participation in naval warfare is foreign to their ambitions and traditions. If the creation: of an Eastern Navy is desirable, it should be the function of Government to undertake it.
We function faith in travies raised by the sub- scriptions of princes and populace. The obvious nucleus for an Eastern Navy is not to be found in cruisers built from the contributions of the, princas of India and the Chinese merchants of Singapore and Hongkong. It exists already in the Royal Indian Marine, whose fine traditions: as a fighting service are forgotten in England, and only dimly rémiensbered in India. If there fu to be'n focal Navy in the East, the Royal Indian Marine can provide an organisation ready made, with officers who have undergone considerable training in naval duties. But before an Eastern Navy, becomes a practical, question, Mr. Boulger and those who think with him will have to face the determined op- position of the Admiralty. The vessels of the Royal Indian Marine cannot carry guns at present, because according to Admiralty theor les they would thereby become "pirates. The
