His Excellency, however, did more than that, for he signed an application and paid his membership fees to become an active member of the Ottawa Branch, and is now Comrade Bessborough in very truth, The Legion's Grand Patron "WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE NAVY?" London --"What's wrong with the Navy?" Commander Stephen King- Hall has been asked by The New Statesman and Nation to answer this question in a series of articles it is publishing concerning alleged short-comings of different profes- sions. Commander King-Hall describes the Navy of today as an vgsheltered and depressed industry. 'If ir were not for the Washington Conference there might only be one large navy in the world instead of two-and-a- half, and that expensive abortion, the 10,000-ton cruiser -would have cumbered t7e seas. Person ally, having had my war, I'm a pa cifist. Like Jurgen I believe in try- ing every drink once; but one war was enough. "From the point of view of the lower-deck rating, there is nothing wrong with the Navy. The sailor 15 admirably educated, clothed, paid, housed, fed and pensioned after 22 years' service, and if he has made reasonable use of his chances of be- coming a skilled technician he can obtain excellent civil employment. "Now let us consider whether there .is anything wrong with the Navy from the point of view of its function, which--we might as well be frank--is not to police the seas or go to the rescue when earth- quakes destroy coastal towns, or visit Margate during Civic Week, but is to destroy other navies in battle should this action seem desir- able to the British Cabinet. The only thing wrong here is lack of money for practising the said busi- ness of destroying enemy vessels, and lack of money with which 'to pay for sufficient new construction to make it quite certain that we should win even if we made mis- takes. Nevertheless, the Navy spends what it gets to great advan- tage, and leads the world in. excel: lence of submarine warfare and in naval airwork. The British Admir- alty has its defects, but is no worse and a good deal more cunning than never | T. B. MITCHELL Ex-Mayor of Oshawa, and the only Honorary Member, up to the pre- sent, of the Oshawa Branch of the Legion. He was given this honor in recognition of his splendid ser- vice on behalf of the wives and dependents of Oshawa's soldiers during the war. other Government Departments. "Considering that the Navy exists for war and that war has been re- nounced by all Powers, I must hon- estly say that I believe our Navy is more cfficient and reddy to do some- thing we have all promised not to do than are the navies of the other powers whose promises we don't be- lievei...i "In a sentence the -naval officer takes it for granted that the law of progress is co-operation rather than selfish competition, I say selfish competition because competition as a means to the end of co-operation is immensely strong in the Navy Ships compete at battle-practice in order to make a more battle-worthy eet, * "Let the reader now suppose that this strange outlook on life could become the outlook on life of the average director, the Trade Union leader, and the politician, I submits that half our social problems would disappear over night."
