BRITISH premier denies ARMIES
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES MUNITIONS.

amount OF ammunition which they had
expended.
In and around Neuye Chapelle al !,
most as much ammunition was spent by
our artillery In fortnight as during
the whole ? "a years of the B0er
war. and yet there was a reserve at
present
Organizing Our Resources.
A report rs to what was being done
in France was presented 10 the war
office. and committee OF the cabinet
decided 10 organize the resources OF
this country. Experts advised that
the best method of doing that was. In
the first instance, to extend the sys-
tenn of sub.eontracting. II was thought
that the experienced ornaments firms
should parcel out the work which could
be done by less experienced firms. leay-
ing 10 themselves the more difficult
and delicate work and the putting to-
gether OF the parts.
This involved the employment OF
$500 to 5000 firms in the production
OF munitions OF war. either In the form
of direct contracts or sub-contracts.
Labor Deficiencies.
II was discovered In december that
the supply would be inadequate, and
the war office endeayored to al up the
labor deficiencies In the ornaments
firms by means of the labor exchanges.
BY March It was clear that the def
ciences could not be made up, and that
was why the government were driven
to ask the house to pass the defense
OF the realm act to equip the war offioef
and the admiralty with powers to take
over engineering works. II was the
next best course. and the government
hesltated to take It until they found
Il was inevitable in order to get the
necessary supplies.
The amount Of ammunition required
depended on the policy adopted at the
front. and when the time came for In
creasing the armies. and the policy
must be more aggressive. the amount
of ammunition required would enor-
mously increase. Therefore In order
to supply, not any deficiency at the
present. but munitions for the inevit-
able forward policy of our generals. 4
was necessary to adopt some policy
such as that sketched In the resolu.
ton. That was the line on which the
government had been working for the
last few weeks.
Take the figure OF 20 rs represent
ing the output In September, by Oeto-
Der 1t went UP TO 80. In November It
was 90 again. because new machinery
which had been laid down did not
come into operation until month Ia
ter. In December II went up to t66.
January 1856, February 256. and March
3sS. lLond ministerial cheers.1 That
was purely for artillery.
Comparing March with September,
therefore, the output was multiplied
nineteenfold. and he had no hesitation
in saying that in April the increase
would correspond with the increase
that had taken place in the preceding
months.
He assured the house that the prob
lem was being tackled in serious earn
est. and great things indeed. wonder
/ full ,things-were being done: and the
house might feel confident that the
production of munitions OF war would
be adequate for the great armies
which had been raised and would en-
able assistance to be given to our
/ allies.
