STILL ANOTHER OPINION.
Lord Nunburnholme, in a letter to the newpsapers, says the country requires an executive consisting of the best soldiers, sailors and men, composed, for example, of Sir John Jellicoc, General Robertson, Lord Devonport, Mr Owen Phillips and two good Labour men who would see (1) that there were sufficient heavy artillery to utterly destroy all German artillery and save the present heavy losses in infantry; (2) blockade the whole of Europe, including neutrals, and thus cause an effective blockade; (3) secure means for the production of sufficient heavy guns immediately so that merchantmen would be able to sink submarines; (4) compel the immediate construction of at least a thousand standardised merchant ships in addition to those already building to secure an adequate food supply and raw materials and munitions for Britain and the Allies.
