ed plans of the refitting of war ships. At the same time, the main tenance of the Fleet, which is the primary role of the Royal Dock- yards, can never be calculated in precise terms, since there is always the possibility of big mishaps or unexpected defects to be dealt with, For this reason it is inevitable that a certain degree of elasticity should be allowed in the labour conditions of the Government yards.
We can only assume the policy of the Admiralty in this matter from events as they happen, since no sort of enlightenment is vouch- safed by Whitehall these days. But it seems reasonable to conclude that the principle of making the Fleet
