British Naval Strength. According to the London Daily Express a mighty addition is to be made to the British Fleet in January next, when no fewer than fourteen super-dreadnoughts will join the great armada." In- formation concerning the com- position of the British Navy is most carefully guarded nowadays, but this we know, that the sis of British navy supremacy |was never in greater ascendancy than it is to-day. The Empire depends, under God, upon the British navy for its existence. Were the fleet to lose command of the seas, within three months Britain's workshops would be empty, the British mercantile marine would be harried to death, the British people and their Allies would be starving and the British armies over the sess would be compelled to surrender for lack of supplies.

view of the British nation during the South African war, and it is evidently held by them to-day. Since hostilities broke out fifteen months ago we have seen many important changes in the ranks of those charged with the direc tion of affaire. First there was the resignation of Prince Louis of Battenburg 88 Firat Sea Lord for reasons with which everyone sympathised, followed ut a later date by the retirement of his successor, Lord Fisher, owing to disapproval of the meth- od of conducting the operations in the Dardanelles. Then we saw the sudden reconstruction of: the Government owing to the ex-) posure by The Times of the muni- tions scandal, and recently we bave learned' of the retorn to England of General Sir Ion?

Is Conscription for Britain

Coming?

The extremely important state- ment made by Lord Derby, on

j

80 the authority of the Prime Minis- ter, once more brings into prom. 4.00 inence the question of con- scription for Great Britain, To

and coming within a very short all appearance it is at last coming

Les period. In his capacity as Direc

tor of Recruiting Lord Derby 2,75 states definitely that "if s auth. cient number of young men, not 1.75 indispensable to business of national importance do not volunteer before the 30th inst,, the Government will there- after take etape to redeem Mr. Asquith's pledge to the House of Commons on the 2nd inat, and that in that event compulsory means would be taken before mar ried men are required to fulfil their engagement to serve." This announcement comes somewhat in the nature of s surprise in view of the fact that recently the res eruiting has been exceptionally good, particularly immediately subsequent to the wave of horror that passed over the world on the announcement of the, strocious death of Mies Cavell and the stirring appeal of Elis Majesty the King,
