BRITAIN'S NAVY,
Premier Balfour Admits Mag
nitude of the Estimates,
But Far Eastern Situation Justifie.
the Expenditure.
Reluctant to Mention the Possibility OF
War.

London, March LIN the course Of {;
discussion of the naval estimates ir
the House of Commons, this evening
Premier Balfour, while admitting tn
magnitude of the estimates, said tn
House SHOULD not only consider the
amount, but should watch the genera
European and Asiatic situation, which
alone could justify what the cOuntr!
was asked to eXpend. The countr.
should not lose sight of the possibilit!
of war between Great Britain and two
great maritime powers, which cou!'
hardly and without great losses on th
part of both the enemies and Grea
britain. i'll Which event the other navle
would lie intact and in Il maritime pc
sition which they did not now hold.
Continuing, Mr.. Balfour said he wa:
reluctant to mention the possibility
war. He did not think such dreadful
contingency was one which they 4
present had any reason to apprehend
But when talking of the navy the.
must always be talking of the posi-
blity of war, and he was forced whe:
indicating the general outlines of tn
reasons which compelled the govern
dictate possibilities which did not eX
ist % years ago. There was no posi-
bic comparison between the depend
enoe Great Britain placed on her navy
which WAS defensive. and the depend
cnce placed by America or any Euro
pc2n country on their navies, which
were offensive. Grea: l:ritain'S policy
had been to see what other nation:
were doing in the way of laying dow
ships and to Immediately make Il reply
SO Ions, us the admiralty was careful
not to anticipate or force other coun.
tries in, but simply to follow suit il
insuring the other countries did no
outstrip Great Britain in the race fol
superiority, Mr.. Balfour believed the
country would support Parliament il
the expenditure.
The vote for the effectiveness Of the
navy was then agreed to.
