This necessarily menus that the navy must be in a posi­ tion not only to guard home waters, bat also to undertake extensive operations, offensive as w ell as defensive, upon ev­ illy sea. Any serious interruption of our trade would entail consequences almost sa disastrous as the complete stoppage of our food supply. Whether the British navy is or Is not sufficiently strong not only to” guarantee the United Kingdom against actual invasion, bnt also to pro­ tect adequately our immense volume of foreign trado, is a m atter of opinion. Bnt even assuming that the desired con­ ditions can be acoepted as actually ex­ isting it w ill scarcely be denied that ev­ ery ship set free from the task of guard­ ing our own shores must add an addi­ tional guarantee to the safety of our merchant ships abroad.
