TIMES DENOUNCES
 BRITISH IMPATIENCE
A. P. A. Service.

LONDON, March 3. - The Times comes out with a strong article denouncing the present manifestations of impatience re- garding the inactivities of the Brit ish forces while the French are battling for life along the eastern reaches of the western battle front. The Times statement is evi- dentlv government inspired and is an effective answer to the recent attacks on the government for idly waiting while the Germans tore the French defense of Yer dun to fraornents. The Tines after cautioning the public to al- low the war authorities 10 han. dle the situations concludes with the following: We are fretting because the British trops are not engaged in the fight.
 We need not fret for the reason that everything is being conduct ed in accordance with we'll ar ranged plan which is fully con cured in by the French author ities. The British are acting closely with French and Bel gian allies and when the hour strikes they will take their part. "

LONDON, oct. 2S.-"The war would
have teen over long ago had the grand
fleet during the first year OF the war
been able to destroy the German high
seas fleet"
"Our strategy in the North sea
throughout has been defensive"
The first of these statements is at
tributed to Lord Fisher, the old sea-
dog who was forced to relinqush his
place as first lord of the admiralty by
his feud with Winston Churchill. The
second remark was made ty Arthur
Pollen, the most brilliant and best in
formed Of British naval critics.
Both declarations would he accept
ed by expert opinion anywhere as
mere statements of evident truths. and
yet, taken together, they amount to
this, that the strongest navy in the
world has failed to force an issue with
q fleet of less than half Its strength,
although the results of complete VIC
tory would determine the issue Of the
whole. European struggle in favor of
Britain and her allies.
II follows that the view of the naval
situation current among civilians all
over the world, but nowhere so
strongly held as in these islands, is en-
tirely false The man-in the street
regards automatic his belief that the
German fleet might as well be at the
bottom OF the sea as skulkins In its
harbors or in the Kiel canal. and that
the full benefit of triumphant sea
power is now being reaped by Great
Britain and her allies.
So far is this from the truth that

tary power OF Russia would be
tripled.
So much for what would certainly
happen II the German fleet were an
initiated; II can scarcely be denied
that the combination OF events just
mentioned would insure the certain
and probably rapid defeat Of Ger
many on land. Nor can it be regard
cd as surprising, in view of these trc-
mondous stakes, that opinion is
growing here IN favor OF II change of
naval policy which would abandon
