Lovat Fraser's recent article critics.
Ing the British military organization

OF the press representing the military
element. Fraser to-day replies to his
critics. saying it is absolutely necessary
for the most free and full criticism to
be- permitted. intimating that the opin-
ions of the civil authorities too often
have been overridden by the military,
which he holds is unconstitutional and
dangerous
