STRENGTH AT SEA.
VALUE OF MERCHANT MARINE. BRITAIN’S STRONG POSITION. By Telegraph.—Press Assn. —Copyright. Received Aug. 20? 5.5 p.m. Washington, Aug. 19. At Williamstown, Massachusetts, Admiral Rogers, chairman of the United States General Naval Board Executive Committee, in a speech, said the United States made all the material sacrifices of strength ar the Washington Conference, while the British fleet, in the merchant marine, remains unapproachable. Naval combat strength exists chiefly, if not solely, to back ocean commerce, and until the United States has its own merchant fleet without fear or reliance on foreign shipping, the British position on the high seas will be unrivalled in peace or war.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
