We know the l'hilippine Goyeru ment has never coked with any degree of favour upon the pro- poal of inviting Chinees labour into any of the Islande, although strange to say... no obj clion is raised to the ar- rival of Japanese: coming in as artisana and exercising all tha privileger enjoyed by the natives.

It is said that covoral of their new boats were to be of 1200 tons displacement, with four light disappearing guns, as well as su increased number of torpede-fir- ing tubes, some of them discharg ing on the broadside. These would be formidable vessels and may be available in the new cam- paige. The Admiralty, it may be safely assumed, do not disparage in any degree the threat madeby Germany. On the contrary, they will accept her warning and will take adequate measures to meet the new menaco. Obviously, the

extent and nature

of the defence cr counter- attack cannot be disclosed. Aathe First Lord told the House-

We shall be able to meet any new efforts with advantages and resources incomparably superior to those which we had at our disposal at the beginning of the
