United Press Association. Copyright
. LONDON, July 8. Tho “Standard” states that Lord Charles Beresford inquired why Admiral Seott disobeyed tho signal, and was informed that it might have been dangerous. Lord Berestord signalled “Quito correct to disobey,” and it. is generally hoped this incident will lead to a reconciliation and terminate the naval scandal. The “Times” says that unless Air. McKenna is able to assure tho House that the naval discussion is greatly exaggerated and there is no disunion in the navy, ho is bound to apply a drastic remedy, regardless of individual personal susceptibilities. In other words, Lord Beresford must . submit or resign. It was his para- > mount duty to act ns a shining example of discipline and subordination to constituted authority.
