CHURCHILL PREDICTS
DARDANELLES VICTORY
Former First Lord of Admir-
atty Deprecates Talk of Con-
scription for Britain.

LONDON, June (By MaID D-winston
mIralty In remarkable speech to his
constituents at Dundee today strongly de-
Tended his conduct of the Admiralty and
made strong plea for combined action
on the part Of Engllshmen at home to
rally TO the support OF their brothers on
sea and land who are fighting the great
est war the world has ever known.
Probably the most striking part of Mr..
Churchill's speech was that in which he
predicted victory in the Dardanelles.
when he said that only a few miles sepa-
rated the Anglo French forces from a
victory that would have further reaching
consequences than any action heretofore
contemplated.
Mr.. Churchill, in speaking of the great
volunteer army that Lord Kitchener has
organized, numbering now more than
100000 men, declared that II Englshmen
could do this, more than America could
do in her great civil war, then the time
wns far off when Britain would have to
resort to compulsiOn to reach the highest
efficiency of her fighting forces at home
and abroad
Concerning the naval situation Mr.
Churchill said:
THE terrible dangers of the beginning
of the war are over. The seas have been
swept clear; the submarine menace has
been fixed within definite limits; the per-
sonal ascendency of our men, the superior
quality of our ships on the high seas
have been established beyond doubt or
question: our strength has greatly in
creased actually and relatively, from
what 1t was in the beginning of the war,
and 1t grows continually every day by
leaps and bounds in all the classes of
vessels needed for the special purpose Of
the war. Between now and the end or
the year the British navy will receive re-
Inducements which would be incredible

The operations In Alsace. although
covered with some mystery by the

contrary, the War Office insists that the
French have made additional gains in
their drive on Lens and Virny and
that fierce German counter-attacks
have been successfully repulsed at

In referring to the announcement OF a

Doty said: up until the time Of tho
announcement II was the consensus Of
opinion among the big dealers that there
could be no change in prices for the new
season. We had all practically received
double our allotment during the last six
months and the comparative value we
have been able 10 give the public IN a

mand, led us all TO believe that the limit
In price had been reached. The new

bona fide. Instead OF offering a smaller
car and cheapening the quality. we arc
actually able 20 give a better car than
the Chevrolet factory ever turned out
before. The best evidence OF the genu-
ineness OF the reduction in price is In the
fact that the car remains unchanged.
This means that we are able 10 offer
