The following memorandum- has hoon finally agreed upon by "You are a motor-driver, are the Executive Committee ob you not?" "No, I am e Ford Naval Policy of the Navy League," | driver.”—At Greenwich. and is issued by Rear-Admigal §. Ronaid A. Hopwood, gañeral The Mayor-Was it a light secretary of the League, for night?"

I. For twenty years before the war the Navy League continually impressed upon the public the necessity of maintaining a strong Navy for the defence of the Empire, more especially as the German menace to civilisation became apparent.
2. With the disappearance of the German Flost, the world's aaval position is changed.
3. To-day civilisation is not threatened by any maritime Power.
4. There is no alternative to competitive building of ships of war except an international naval agreement, and this applies to whatever type of ship is con- sidered to dominate the sea pasi- tion for the moment, for there is increasing certainty that new in- ventions will render obsolete, ati shorter notice, all existing or contemplated ships, but this will simply divert competition into new channels, as it alwaye has
done.
5. The term "command of the Бедн convoys to an ill-inform- ed public simply the possession at any time, of the greatest num- ber of ships; but the embracing of the doctrine by any country either invites competition by, or demands acquiescence from, other Countries, since the High Seas are neutral in times of peace.
6. The use of the terms "defence," "security." and adequate Navy" necessitates comparison with other navies, and must result in competition.
7. In the spring of 1917, when the danger from the U-boats was at its highest, there was given the English and American
