Speaking at a welcome gathering at Now Plymouth on • Thursday morning, Captain Lewes, of H.M.S. Cambrian, stated that New Zealanders could rest assured that the Government at Home was not idle with regard to the navy, upon which they considered the safety of the Empire must depend, and although their programme was not published the Board of Admiralty had before it a building programme that should satisfy everybody. The expense, of course, was heavy, for the ships that were now being built were what might be determined fighting ships, and were quite up-to-date. The Board of Admiralty was an • invisible, silent Board, and, as they were aware, it was often severely criticised; but still, despite all this, it could bo relied upon to hold its end up. The universal policy of England to-day was that the navy must be outside party political considerations, and both parties combined to keep it in such a position as it held to-day by voting all the money necessary. Continuing, Captain Lewes said the more the navy was shown about the Empire the better it would be, because if people did not see a thing they naturally began to imagine it was not there. Possibly the American Fleet might have provided a little sermon out here. At any rate, he hoped so, because when the sermon touched the heart of the hearer the contribution generally became much larger.
