LOOKING AHEAD
CENTRE OF NAVAL GRAVITY
(UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION.—COPIMfHIt)
(AUSIItALIAN-NEW ZEALAND CAMJB ASSOCIATION.) LONDON, 23rd December. The Daily Express's naval' correspondent, discussing Lord Jellicoe's visit to Australia, says:—"Many naval students are of opinion that the centre of naval gravity during the next few years will swing to the Indian Ocean and the Southern Pacific. The immense potential wealth of India and Australasia must offer a temptation to a predatory enemy, and must be defended. The policy of entrusting the Dominions with their own nuval defence may bring in India. We may get an Indian navy officered and manned by Indians; we may seethe growth during the next decade of an Imperial Admiralty, on which will be representatives from each Dominion."
