THF, FOURTH OF AUGUST, 1918 Four long, weary, terrible years of war were commemorated on August 4th. 1918. A traveller returning from England slays,"War has Oaecomie nornial condition and England takes, it as a matter of °aurae". Imagine, war a normal condition. Four Years ago we b.elievedf war was, already owe!, grown by rouir gentler civilizations War, was cruel andl we had c.orne to dread and abhor the sight of suffering-. War, too,- was the .eruerny of business, oil commerce, arid hence, itn.poissible; War /stirred deelp and abiding bates and we talked peace and unity of the nations. Christian missianaries went' ell over the earth asapoittle.e.of a common Fatherhood and( Brotherhood How' changed. allow we face war hatred and slatighter everywhere. War has revealed t hings which as- tound tia.. We had theilight pity was a virtue, but we' find a greatt nation counts (it a vice if it tends to cheek a State hent .on &inquest and mas-' Wry. Wai has revealed our ignorance of some of the 'deepest thing's in ; our own world. 1VAert We thought vaiae said- that modern war as sai costly that it could not endure Ter- More than a few months, that our whale -aeon - epic fabric would be' clestafoyed by a year of werld-w(islie war, if that could even he conceived Itt fact four Years of war have revealed in us saurclea of strength Insimagarieal. IC our endurance Is gregear the power elf Malignant &Aloes is allsp greater than we had imagined. Men who, went tato France with the first British army zaild <Golod-bye, we will be back by Christen* with Germany deeearted" How fantastic does - all litisaelem now? ,W,e, are tin blame for hieing ceeelesa. Ge.rman leaders had declared that tthe British Empire was in their path and niust be dee thayed. We. thought these the words of the dreamers, and that the 'German eco - pie were alright and would check the plans of a few wild sioldiem.

Only the ,bitt esare,es of defeat will convince them 'that they have still to learn elements, of the fre.e culture of the world, At the end of flag Dourth year of the war we may Well be humbled that we un- derstood so littler foresaw so little, safeguarded spa little,.. The 'nataies now understand Germany, and ,only when she shows- a real change of heart will .thie pa/tines welcome any Morn- isa that she, will be, a geed Ineighlittar.

What has it been: doing all this time? , Has it measured up to our lexpectatiOna ? There arc a illsamlhert of main Objects which the Navy is required to 0.6h,- iieVe. The fit* is to meet, and if possible, annihilate the enemy's arm- ed forces; tO prevent supplies reach- ing the enemy; to protect the sea borne cranmerc,ei of the British Em- pire; to ensure that supplies react the 1Jailecl Kingdiorne tie prevent in- vasions Of Greet Britain, and the -Ov- erseas Dorniniona; tol maintain, the sea communications of the Armies fight - Mg an the various, fraintS. Only in the, achievement of itS first and primary duty has the Navy been blocked, Since Jutland the, enemy fleet has kept cllase to its own coast. To attack it has be -en impossible on account of theeshalllory waters, elabor- ate minefields, anal coast defer's. ce,s The other, objectst of our POliCy, ,however have been ceaselessly and relentlessly pursued. Not _merely have we aimed a,t. Success; we 'have attained it. ' Not an dunce of supplies has reach- ed .the ,enemy .by water. Our block- ade hen been stringently tightened In. 1915, 256 out of 400 shiPs.eludeal the patrol- sqltadrkirist, At the end .of 1916 only 60 . out 'sof 3,000 escaped heir intercepted. In one mouth ,of 1917 not a ,stingle vessel trading with' neutral countries crossed ehe North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, without being held up and examined, The Baltic is the 'only stretch of salt water where German .sthips( may safely .show themselves, • The Navy has( kept starvation, from the Bnitieh Isles. Early last year the Hun started eal his campaign of ruth- less and u,n(reelinicted sub). warfare! I -Ie dahlia to have 'sunk during the first twelve anionthat nine and one-half million tons of allied and neutral ship- ping This is -T erase exaggeration. The actual arnount of tonnage sunk and irreparably damaged by submar- ine' action waaonly six miliion tons. In other word's, the tenern.y i,s wrong to the extent of 38 per cent.; and, this is altogether apart from, his boastful promlisle of :sinking alanilliton tons a month,, Wisely,. we say nothing of German submarines that will never turn to their home. The: admiralty has goad reaalon to believe that be- tween 40 and 50 per cent, of all U boats 'operating in home wat-ers since' the beginning of the war- have been destroyed. Every day , we find "new methods. 'Merchant ships are armed, and manned with expert gun crews. The Auxiliary ,patrol services have been ,enoemously expanded, Before the outbreak of the war there were under 20 vessels employed as mine sweepers and on auxiliary patrol du - tis To -day we have 3400 of this craft and their rainiSer is "constantly inceeasing. Steel 'net arid depth bomb have added to, the heavy toll taken of the U Beat. A alAW system of con- voying Merchant ships has been adopted which, has been remarkably effective in reducing losses. During tb,e last Lew months over 90 per cent' of all vessels sailing On the Atlantic have beet). convoyed. Less than one per crit. of these shies have been lost whether by enema 'action, or marine risk. The submarine menace is still with ass but it is well under cant.1401. We have lost oneafifth of our mercantile tonnage, since the be -- ginning of the wan but its the first quarter of 1918the U boats destroyed Ear leas than they did in the firatt three months of ;frightfulness, and our losses are decreasing daily. ' 'The fourth object of our Navy is to protect our shores'. The surface warships cif the central Powers 'have been driven into harbour, and kept .there Early in the war every Ger- man Comnierc.e raider was. chased the seas; and Men Spe,e's squad - di -on was de.stroyed. at the, Falklands. It is, impossible to prevent small min- er rads Ion oar coast towns. To this Scarborough and Hartlepool bear wit- ness Protracted attacks, however are not remotely .pessible.• The' task• of watching the enemy navy is no light -one. The 140,000- square miles of the'altorth Sea have to. be patrolled inces.sletly In. all weetherat When we consider that silica 1914 the per- sonnels of our Navy lase increased ba twoahandr.ed per cent. and the total tan,nrage of our Fleet' by fiftty cit cent. add that in, one month British warships, proper travel .one millio,n, sea nale,s in home waiters 'ialione, are we to believe thie Gelman statemen,t that the British fleet rusting in land- locked harbours ?
