utterly inadequate, utterly inefficient
for the purpose of securing real coor.

permanent body constantly watching
these things, constantly advising upon
them, and constantly reporting on them

French, Italian, or Russian front.
Navy Has Needs ........ ..
with regard to the navy, can as q,
sure my right honorable friend that
representation of the navy is not an
afterthought; it is essential that all in.
formation regarding naval operations
should be known to these military adj
visers. That is different thing to the
establishment of naval council and
to coordinating naval strategy. A good
deal can be said for that. We are suf-
fering from lack of it now, anybody
who knows what is, happening in the
Mediterranean could tell that. There
is a great deal to be said for SINH
lar council dealing with naval strategy
