MUTUAL 4581ATANCE,

Hr. Churchill regarding the question of Courts Martial and Courts of Enquiry, emphasised that the circumstances and conditions of modern naval war were entirely different from previous experiences. The mine and wab marine created entirely novel conditions and presented to naval officers problems of incomparable hazard and difficulty.

The Russian Government in return would fuciliate the export of produce of every kind required by the Allies. This, he thought, would be one of the most fruitful parts of the arrangement.
