MI Balfour's first and most Important speech
at Manchester was on Naval Defence. lie took
high ground. He would hear nothing of party.
and disciamed with evident sincerity all thought
OF party advantage. He spoke as an English
man to Englishmen. and offered to support the
Government hcarty in any policy adapted to
maintain the naval supremacy Of England. OF

pire has the broalest and Ieast defensibe from
