POINTS TO SOUTH AFRICA
Says Great Danger to the State IN Hav-
ing Weak Forces Has Been GIa-ingly
Illustrated in Regard to the Army
by Campaign There-Oficers Have
HabitualIy to Threaten to Resign.

LONDON, June 20.-During discussion
Of the annual estimates for the navy in
the House Of Commons today, Rear
Admiral Lord Charles Beresford. Con
servative Member OF Parliament for
Woolwich. called attention to the def
cieneies which, he contends. exist IN the
British navy.
He admitted that the government was
doing all it could, but the whole system,
he declared, was rotten. Every increase
Of the feet and every Improvement ef-
fected was the result of outside agita-
ton He asserted that the engine room
department was thousands Of men short
OF its proper complement.
Ineffciency in this and other respects
was due to nobody at the admiralty; the
responsibility lay with politicians who
ignored expert opinion.
Fleet Is Still Weak.
His lordship complained that the
Mediterranean feet was still weak al
though it was stronger than last year.
1t now comprised thirteen battleships as
against ten in 1901 and Of these six were
vessels Of modern type. All the thir-
teen were ready to go out and fight,
while last year there were never more
than eight ready TO take the sea. against
an enemy. The torpedo boat destroyer
section Of the feet was double the
strength that it was in 1901. while the
department OF stores was so per cent
better.
This was something toward improve
mont for when he was second in COM
mand Of the Mediterranean feet he
found difficulty even in getting coal
Il was remarkable thing that officers
OF the British army and navy had ha-
bituaily to threaten TO resign in order
to get things put right His experience
IN the navy, which extended over fortv.
three years, had taught him that the
commander-in-chief OF a feet spen;
more than half OF his time writing home
for material essential TO the efHeiency
OF his squadron In regard TO reserves
they had only 2O.OOe men. instead Of tn,
S0,ooo that they needed.
Wants Thinking Department.
Lord Charles Beresford further SAID
that what he wanted was a thinking de-
partment at the admiralty. There should
be general staff to make out the re.
Quirements Of the case and to present II
to the political and financial depart
ment.
He wanted business board Of the ad.
miraity separate from that on which the
fighting efficiency of the fleet depended
They needed reality, not farce. Con
troll by the treasury was fatal to eff
cheney. The great danger to the stat,
in having weak forces had been gIaring
y illustrated in regard to the army b.
the campaign IN South Africa. He urged
strongly that the question Of reorganiza
ton Of the navy needed immediate CON
sideration.
Sir Charles Dixie. Member Of Parlia
ment for the Forest Of Dean division
who has studied and written upon tn,
question of imperial defense, foIiowet
IN the debate and urged that the expert
element should have fuller powers.
