NAVY HAS SAVED
EUROPE He SAYS
LLOYD. TELLS HOW
GREAT BRITAIN'S NAVAL FOR
CES HAVE PREVENTED THE
GERMANS FROM WINNING WAR.

LONDON, Nov. 3,-Parliament re.
Gently adopted resolution presented
by Premier Lloyd-George, express
ins the thanks of the parliament to
the navy and the army, including the
overseas troops and the mercantile
marine, for their services in the war
and to thewomen in the medical and
other auxiliary services, and express
ing sympathy to the relatives and
friends of those who have given their
lives TO their country Premier Lloyd
George, in moving the resolution, said
that even if he had the leisure in these
times, especially the anxiety of the
last two or three days, he felt he could
not do Justice to this great theme.
The deeds mentioned in the resolu-
tions were known to and had won
the admiration of every subject of
of the kind.
The British navy was alike one OF
those internal organs essential to life,
of which we are unconscious until
something goes grown. In this war,
said the premier, the navy had been
the anchor of the allied cause. If i
loist it's hold, the hopes of the alliance
would be shattered.
The premier told how the navy
had guaranteed supplies to the army
abroad and material which it had en-
abled the allies to get from abroad
adding:
But for the navy disaster would
have fallen upon the allied cause.
Prussia would be mistress of Europe
and, through Europe of the warld. De-
spite hidden foes, despite illegitimate
naval warfare, despite black piracy,
the navy has preserved the highways
OF the seas for British and her allies
l3.OOO.O0O Men Transported.
Since the beginning of the war,
the navy has ensured the safe trans
portation to the British and allied
armies of thirteen million men, two
million horses, twenty-five million
tons of coal and oil The losses of
men out of the whole thirteen million
wereonly $500. of which only 400
were lost through the action of the
enemy Altogether, 130000,0O0 tons
have been transported by British
ships
1t was too early to summarize the
effect of the blockade by the British
navy. which would be complete, de-
clared the premier, if It had not left
the gate to the Balkans unlocked.
II was not the fault of the grand fleet
If it had not the many opportunities;
that was due to the enemy's knowl-
edge of its efficiency Since the bat
tie of Jutland the Germans had never
seen fit to challenge it.

found in all seas. being numbered

Dear Mamma and julie:
Have been having fine sea yoy
age and feel like new man. We
have now been out for ten days, and
the weather, with the exception of two
or three stormy days, has been fine.
The food on the ship is fine, and
have been enjoying all my meals, IS
have not been in the least sea-sick
SC far Guess l am in luck, as quite
a few of the boys have been. We
have very nice bunch on board and
have been passing away the time play
ing cards and reading l have no du-
ties to perform while on board ship,
and my time is all my 6wne. iWll be
sorry when the trip is over, as l am
very fond of the water.
Dropped you card from Halifax,
Nova Scotia, where we were at an
Choir for several days, but could not
say at the time where I was, as the
censor rules are very strict, and we
ARE not permitted to write anything
that would convey information of any
kind Of course, this letter will not
be mailed until we get across, so can
write anything l care to regarding
my trip.
The weather is getting very cold, as
we are now off the coast of ireland,
but am well prepared for it. Have
heavy wooden underwear, wooden uni
form and wooden shirts, and an over
coat and gloves, so there is not much
chance of getting very cold, even il
zero weather.
When ] first wrote you, l told yod
not to mention to anyone that I was
going abroad. By the time you re-
ceive this letter / will have reached
nay destination, so it won't make any
difference whether you say anything
about it or not In case you should
mention 1t to anyone, simply say l
am in foreign service, but don't say III
what capacity. Won't be able to write
much about what l am doing while
abroad, as every letter is censored,
but will write as often as can.

of the general staff, he said:
Success Largely Haig's.
Splendid as the fighting qualities
of the troops have been, the success
has been due in large measures to
the power of organization, the pf'
sistence and forethought of Haig."
Seventy-fve per cent of the con-
tribution in men, said the premier

Ireland had made a DISTINGUISHED con-

Wales had beaten the record by a
