JUTLAND.
SECRECY CONDEMNED. PUBLIC WANTS THE FACTS. ..- Br Ttl««r»pb.—Preo Assn.—Copyright. Receited Oct. 29, 11.10 p.m. London, Oct. 29. The Times, in a special article, condemns the refusal to publish the official nocount of the Battle of Jutland, thereby depriving the navy of the greatest opportunity of learning how to fight, and secondly, when shipbuilding programmes are on the brink of revolutionary changes the country is pre,v. uted from studying th» only battle Mere Dreadnoughts fought, and great destroyer attacks were made thereon. The Times adds that Lord Jellicoo and Lord Beauty represent two scnools of thought as wide as the poles aswnder. There is, the Times says, no demand for a court-marial in connection with the battle; but a growing atmosphere of suspicion concerning the general conduct of the battle is bad for the country and its trust in the navy. However painful it might be, the only way to re-establish confidence and safeguard the future is fearlessly to reveal the f«ts and allow the public to judge.— Junes Service.
