NAVAL CONTROVERSY.
SOME PECULIAR VIEWS. Ay Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, Jan. 16. Admiral Sir Percy Scott, continuing the naval controversy in the Press, says that he believes that the advantage in. the next naval war will lie in means of defence rather than attack. He sees no reason why a torpedo should not be evolved which no battleship could withstand. Sir Percf* Scott considers that every nation will have at important ports various means of defence. He concludes with a cryptic hint of a new weapon which he describes as a gun that "shoots out at both ends.’—-United Service.
