W. C. Amaruett llnlgflng ldltor.... .. ...... R-Burnett I WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 17» 1915 IS- TIIIS A “FAKE”? It will have been seen from what we had to say yester- day that Germany received with the utmost satisfaction the decision of Sir Wilfrid Laurler's henchmen in the Senate, to turn down Sir Robert Borden‘s proposal OI naval assistance. It will be now .ln order to quote the authority on which Sir Robert Borden acted. It is to be found in a communication from the Secretary of State for the Colonies, the Right Hon. L. Harcourt, to His Royal Highness the Governor General, and ls in the followIn8 termsz- “nownlng st., 25tli oct.. lolz. “Sir,--I have the honour to transmit to Your Royal Iligll- _ ness the accompanying copy of fl memorandum relating to the REQUIREMENTS of the Naval Defence of the Empire, “2. This document has been prepared by the Admiral- ty ON TI-IE INSTRUCTIONS OF HIS Z\IAJES'I`Y'S GOV- ERNMENT in compliance with the request of Mr. Borden with a view to presentation to the Dominion Parliament if, and when, the Dominion Ministers deem it necessary." The Patriot clalnls that Sir Robert Borden “faked” lilo emergency requirclnents of 1912. lit-.rc is first llund evi- dcnre tllat Sir Robert nctctl ill conjunction with l\Ir. As- qnitll's Government. and it follows if Sir Robert is n "faker" so also are ;\Ir. Asquith, Sir Edward Grey, Mr. Winston Churchill, hir. Lloyd George and ;\Ir. Lewis liar- court. \\'ould not our readers rather be "fakers" in such good company than “neutrals" in the company' of the Patriot, Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his Senator henchmen? What were thc terms of this all-important memorandum which Sir Wilfrid treated with the contempt of a "scrap of paper?" Here they arc, and we are sure thc re-reading of them will bring tl flush of shame to the face of many when tllcy recall how, in the name of Canada, the Senate retorted “to blazes with you and your REQUIRELIENTS for naval defence! They are a fake!" "1. The Prime Minister of the Dominion of Canada has Invited Ilis I\Iajesty's Government through the Board at Admiralty' to prepare a statclllent of tile present and im- mediately prospective requlrenlcuts of the naval dcfellt-ti of the Empire for prcsclltution to the Canadian `U.lrlian`.e:lt if the Dominion Cabinet deem it llecessaly. “Tile Lords Colnlnissiollcrs of the Admiralty arc- pru- pured to comply and to supplelnent, ill n form wnich can be made public, the confidential eolnmullieatior-.-s and con- versations wllicil llave passed between the Atlmiraltv and Ministers of the Dominion Parliament during the rocellt visit to the United liingdonl. "The Admiralty set the greatest store by the important materal and still nlore important moral assistance which it is within the power of Canada to give to maintaing Bri- tish Naval supremacy on the high seas, but they think it necessary to disclaim any intention, llowever, indirect, of putting pressure upoll Canadian public opinion, or of seek- ing to llllluence the Donlilliou Parliament in tt decision which clearly belongssolely to Canada. “The Admiralty therefore confine themselves i.ll this statement exclusively to facts, and it is for the Dominion Government and Parliament to draw their own conclusions lllerefronl. "2. The power of tile Iiritlsh Empire to nlaillinin the superiority on the sea, which is essential to its security. lnust obviously be measured from tilne to time by refer- ence to thc other naval forces of the world, and such a comparison does not imply anything unfriendly lu inten- tion or in spirit to ally other Power or group of Powers. From this point of view thc development of the German Fleet during the last fifteen years is the nlost striking feature of the naval situation today. That developlnent has been authorized by five successive legislative enact- ments, viz.. the Fleet Laws of 1898, 1900, 1906, 1908 and 1912. These laws cover the period up to 1920. "Whereas in 1898 the German Fleet consisted of:- 9 battlcshlps (excluding const defence vessels). 3 large cruisers, I 28 small cruisers, 113 torpedo boats, and 25.000 nlen. maintained at all annual cost of 6.000.000l.. thc full I-‘lcet of 1920 will consist of:- 41 battlesllips. 20 large cruisers, 40 snlall cruisers. 144 torpedo boats. '72 submarines ami 101,500 men. estimated to be malntnlnctl at an annual cost of 2:i.000,- 000l. These figures. however, give no real idea of thc advance, for the size and cost of ships Ilns risen contin- ually during-the period, und. npart from increasing their total numbers, Germany has systematically replaced old and small ships. which counted as units in her earlier Fleet. by the most powerful and costly luodcru vessels. Neither does the money provided by the estimates for the completed lnw, represent the increase in cost properly attributed to tile' Gcrlunn Navy, for many charges borne on British naval funds arc otherwise defrayed in Germany; and the German Navy comprises such a large proportion of new ships that the cost of maintenance and repair is considerably less than in navies which have been longer oltahlilhed. "ll, The naval expansion of-Germany has not been pro- voked. by British naval increases. The German Govern- mont have repeatedly declared that their naval policy has hot been influenced by British action, and the following ISIN! weak for tbemselvcs:- In IMI Great Britain was building 4 capital ships. and Germany z. - ~ . -In 1900 Great Britain reduced to 3 capital ships. and lhctllaod I. ` _ _ ` bg: _ -erm pt-natlr wilt- a cnplm .lun mn otimany jfs- tan once llfltaln mnhu- recom to 2 capital mpp, Intl- Germany further increased to 4.

In the spring of the present year.‘tho fifth German Navy Law was assented to by the Relchstag. The main feature of that law is not tho increase In the new construc- tion of capital ships.~though that is Important, bug rather THE INCREASE iN THE STRIKING FORCE OF SHIPS OF ALL CLASSES which will be immediately available at all/seasons of the year. o a o 0 _ n U “The new construction under _the law prescribes the building of 3 additional bnttleshlps'-1 to be begun next year, 1 in 1916-and 2 small cruisers, of which the date .has not yet been fixed. The date of the third battleship has 'not been fixed. It has been presumed to be later than the sixi yearswhicb are in view. The cost of these increases in men and in material is estimated as 10.500,- 000l., spread over that period 'above the previous esti- mates. ‘ “The facts set forth above were laid before the‘Houso of Communson the 22nd July, 1912, by the First Lord of the Admiralty. _,_ "5. The effect bf the new German Navy Law is to pro- duce a remalrkablc expansion ofstrength and readiness. The number of battleships and large armoured cruisers which WILL _BE KEPT CONSTANTLY READY AND IN FULL QQMMISSION will be raised by the law from 21. the present figure, to 33-an addition of 12, or an increase of about 57 per cent. “Thls great fieet`is not dispersed all over the world for duties of commerce protection or in discharge of Colonial responsibilities; nor are its composition and character adapted to those purposes. IT IS CONCENTRATED AND KEPT CONCENTRATED IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE GERMAN AND BRITISH COASTS. "Whereas, in the present year, (1912), Great Britain pos- sesses 18 battleships and battle cruisers of`the Dread- nought. class against 19 of that class possessed by the other Powers of Europe, and will possess in 1913 24 to 21, thc figures in 1914 will he 31 to 33; and In the year 1915, 35 to 51. ` ‘ “The existence of a number of navies all colnprlslng ships of high quality must be considered in so far as it affects the possibilities of adverse combltlatiolls belug suddenly formed. Larger margins of superiority at llonle would, among other things, restore a greater fret-dom to the movements of the British Sqlladroll-s in every sea, and directly pronlotc the security of the Ilomlnions. “ANYTIIING VVIIICII INCREASES OUR M.\li.GIN IN TIIE NEIVI-JST SHIPS DIMINISIIES THE STRAIN AND AIIGMENTS Olfit SECURITY ANI) OUR CIIANCES OF IIEING LEFT UNIHOLESTED. \\'ll.l'rr“.'ls»l may be the tl...-mini. or tt.\N.\nA ut the present juncture, GREAT BRITAIN VVILL NOT IN ANY (_‘IRCi'I\'S'l‘.»\i‘t'\“I~.'S FAIL IN IIER l)U'I`Y T0 THE OVERSEA D(li\I.I.\IIi'.‘;\`S OF THQ f.‘l`tU\\'.\I. “She has before now successfully made Ilead alone und unaided against the most formidable combinations and she has not lost llcr capacity by n wisc policy' alld strenuous exertions to watch over and preserve thc vital interests ot' the Empire. _ The Admiralty are assured that His l\Iajesty‘s Govern- 1110111 Will 110'- l\€Sllale to ask the House of Commons for whatever provision the circumstances of each year may require.

The Canadians here were very interested In the fight when they knew the Princess Royal and Tiger were In it, as the former was our protection across the Atlantic, and the latter was at Devonport when we landed there.
