BRITISH ARE GRAT|F|ED
OVER CHANGES IN NAVY
Hope, Not Confidence, Voiced That
Arrangement Will
Work Well.

LONDON, November Standardization
and hopeful expectation generally are
expressed in the London morning pa
pers at the naval changes. although not
without certain qualifications. 1t is
universally admitted that the new ap-
pointments will be popular, but there
is a disposition rather to hope than to
be confident that the arrangement will
work well.
The Times. for instance, while dis
avowing an intention to suggest that
the appointments. because popular. are
not necessarily sound, says: Comment
must necessarily be restrained If 1t is
not to be mere ignorant enthusiasm.
The changes cannot possibly be tested
except by the result We do not doubt
that the decision. which perhaps is
more serious than any taken in the
war. has been as anxiously considered
by its authors as 1t will be widely dis
cussed. 1t remains to be seen
whether Admiral Jellicoe possesses the
driving power. ruthlessness. ability to
impress his colleagues and the clear
vision which is SO sorely needed in the
war committee"

Through Ambassador Rernstorf the
German government has protested to
the United States against the election
Of the German, Austrian and Turkish
