The council of the association, the hon secretary points out, sympathise with what they believe to be the objects of the bill, but view with grave apprehension the ambiguous and uncertain character of its termed The widsress and indefiniteness of the words in the first clause are especially insisted on.

might desire to make the contents public, while the War Office might désire to treat it as a secret document. The Act in its present form would enable the naval and military authorities to suppress practically all reference in the newspaper Prem to naval or military mate ters. The word "communication" is not limit ed to written communications, nor does it ap pear whether the term "reigning sove reigo" includes the Ministers and agents of the Crown, or whether the Act would apply only to communications directed per sonally to the Crown. If the statute would be capable of the former construction, as the council of the association think it might be, it is obvious that the effect would be very serious aud far-reaching.

The bill, it is further pointed out, contains no provision which would justify the publication of communications to the sovereign which had. already been published in a foreign country, Take the case of the publication in Germany
