IMPERIAL DEFENCE AND NATI- ONAL SERVICE.
(To the Editor of the China" "Mail.)" SIB, The Prime Minister's recent speech on the problem of Imperial Defence is of such importance, and the complacent acceptance by the nation of some of the con" clusions indicated therein would, in the opinion of the National Service League, be fraught with so much danger that it asks the courtesy of your columus is which to' offer a few words of criticism and protest.
The main points in Mr Balfour's speech were (1.) that the landing of 70,000 troops in this country is impossible under cor- tain cofiditions described by him as present- ing the problem in a very concrete and very moderate shape. (2) That, while no. surprise is possible in the case of India" we should requiro eight divislons of in fantry and other corresponding arnis on the outbreak of war with Russia and that, in order to guard ́against the possibility of sach war, we must let Russia úndorstand that the building of railways in Af- ghanistan will be looked upon by us as a casus belli.
■
Mr Balfour believes that if we adopt this precaution it is not at all beyond the mill- tary power of this country without any fun- damental reorganisation of its forces....
•

Wo have been compelled briefly to touch upon the two salient points in Mr Balfour's speech. But we are more concerned to draw attention to what that speech omitted than to criticiso what it contained. For the first time in history a Prime Minister of England has dealt with perial Dofence on broad lines, and we welcome a step which shows that at last we are coming to regard the problem of National Defence as a matter of paramount national interest.. But we look in vain in this long and able speech for any hint to the nation of the duties and responsibilities which our vast Empire imposes upon us as citizena, any suggestion as to the need for national self- Borifico and for the subordination of individual interests to the needs of the

PROGRESS AT HANKOW.
The Prevention of Floods.
The Hankow correspondent of the Shanghai Mercury, writing on June 27, Bays:---
For the past few months, people taking a view across the plains at the back of Hankow, have noticed in the distance certain little red flags fluttering in the breczo. Later on, when folk were expect. ing to find the usual inundation, they were surprised to find that although the River Yangtze had risen to 36 feet, there was no sign of the floors appearing. During the past winter there has been a good deal of discussion in high quarters, 8 to the ndvikatility, possibility of building a dani from the Seven Mile Creek to the Han River.
Plans were put forward by a well known firm in Hankow, but the Viceroy evidently thought that he was as good as the best. He therefore passed the order round that the dam had to be built, and in time to
prevent the floods this year.
An army of some 25,000 coolies were
imported from the neighbouring districts,
