Truth, in & recent issue, saya :—"Unless 1 have been greatly misinformed, Mr. Winston Churchill, in addition to all the other cares of State that rest upon him, has just been confronted with a strike of Sea Lords. If th© story of the strike as 1 havo it is accurate, he brought it upon himself by personally interfering in a personal grievance on the part of a very junior officer— l supposo what Lord Charles Beresford would call "taking charge.' 1 The incident hay. ing .been reported to Whitehall through tho usual official channels, the Sea. Lords respectfully remonstrated with their chief, and then, their remonstrances not being favourably received, resigned in a body. Apparently this hid the desired effect, for the affair, if it ever happened, h&B evidently blown over."
