LORD ROBERTS SOUNDS
ALARM ON PEACE PLAN
Refers to Speech Of German Chancel-
Tor and Demands That Great Brit

LONDON, April 4.--During the de-
bate on national defense In the house
OF lords last night, Field Marshal
Lord Roberts moved a resolution de.
claring that the house views with
grave concern the inadequate mill
tary arrangements of the government
for the defense of this country and
his majesty's oversee dominions."
In speaking to his resolution Lord
Roberts said II required especial
courage to introduce such a motion at
a time when there was 80 much talk
of disarmament and peace, but total
~ unexpected incident had encour-
aged him. He referred to the speech
of Imperial Chancellor Won Beth
mann-Hollweg in the German reich
stag last week.
The manly sense of this speech,
Lord Roberts said, appealed to him
in way which he found difficult TO
express. The German chancellor had
defined what was the true relation
OF a nation to its armed forces and
had put into words a principle which
during the last few months had been
in his Q.ord Roberts) own mind.
LOrU hODeTtS aIHTIneu lHdl bIedt
Britain's existing forces did not rep
resent either her resources or the
spirit which animated the nation be
cause IL had neither an army such
as was needed for home defense nor
an effective army to protect the ter
ritories abroad.
After referring to the costly ex-
periences Of the South African war,
which occurred principally through
insufficiently trained troops, Lord
Roberts asserted that the army needs
an additional million trained men.
The condition of the army, said Lord
Roberts in conclusion, ought TO be
examined into by experts who had
no axe to grind.
Viscount Haldane, the secretary OF
war, in reply. said Lord Roberts sue-
gested war for which Great Britain
must prepare, must be for the de
tense of either India against Russia,
or OF Canada against the United
States or of Egypt and for the main
tenance OF the balance OF power IN
Europe He QLord Haldane) feared that
Lord Roberts short-service army or
a million would bring the nation 10
the verge OF bankruptcy. The war
secretary said he could not admit that
Great Britain's army was in a bad
position.

September has not yet brought such

August performance may have been
due to one of the moderate waves in
demand which throughout 1911 have
alternated that short period in which
the market has halted.

Efficiency Increased,
Waste Prevented

The proposed arrangement between
the Western Union, the Anglo-Amer
lean and the Direct u. S. companies
will bring the eight cables of the three
companies under one operating con-
troll. The consequent increase in
effectiveness and economy will place
the Western Union in position to
offer certain advantages in cable
service not now enjoyed by the public.
The other way open to enable
the Western Union to make such i'm
provements and introduce such new
services as il proposes to do, would
be TO lay new cables. This would
seem to be the height of folly.
Duplication of the existing trans
Atlantic cable facilities at a cost of
many millions, when there are more
than ample facilities for all business,
would put an unnecessary financial
burden upon an already fully burdened
business and would probably postpone
the reduction Of rates or introduction
of new services

Efficient Service Requires
Sufficient Facilities

To meet these requirements n "
essential not only that there be at all
times sufficient cable facilities, under
one control, but that they should be
operated interchangeably with each
other and in close physical conuec-
ton with land lines as one system.
Ample spare facilities are necessary
to provide against the very frequent
cable Interruptions.
Neither the Western Union nor any
one of the companies of the Western
Union group has, independently Of the
others, facilities. enough to handle
the business which at times any QUE
company might be called upon to take
care of, because of some particular
rush of business, or because of some
cable interruption. Nor could any one
company furnish all the direct circuits
necessary for efficient service, al
though the combined facilities of
these companies are ample if they
could be used supplementary to each
other and interehangeably.
As il is, each company operates its
own cables through separate and dis
tinct Offices and under separate and
distinct management. Aninterchange
of business is by actu al transfer of the
business from one company to the
other, with the consequent delay and
interruption of a service In which
seconds are vzlu able..
