Mr. Herbert Samuel, speaking at Saltimm, said that the increase in the Naval Estimates was a most unfortunate necessity. Britain's position was absolutely clear, and if the other countries agreed with us in checking the increase, nothing would give the Government greater pleasure. He added that compulsory military service was unnecessary, because there was no risk of invasion as long as the navy was maintained at its overwhelming strength. Moreover, the, expense of such a service would be colossal.
