The question of the size and character of the Naval force which is to represent the British Empire in the Pacific should certainly engage the Imperial Conferenon in its sosterious debates. The present position is obviously a temporary one, and the agreement reached be. twoon the Mother Country, Australia, and Now Zealand at the last Congress deus not go nearly far enough. While Japan's navy was in embryo the

British Daval contingeat on the old China station was the main factor in the oval ritan- tion, but the development of to Japanese navy, by placing for the first time a greit fleet, in its own home waters, on the Pacific, would in

any caso have recessitated changes in our plans. The Anglo-Japanese treaty postponed the considera- tion of our relative positions in the Pacific, and the Home Government to concentrate, Sea, but it cannot be too clearly understood that this was tko problem.

From the point of view of such a body it is extremely doubtful whether the present distribution of the Pacifle flet would appear to be the best possible, and it is certain that its bere (as planned) would be condemned as wholly inadequate, The inital power of the British Empire in the Pacific must be of a strength commensurate with our interests. and ambitious, sunt it needs to be based ausomo pivoted point.
