PREPAREDNESS.
BRITAIN'S DEFENSIVE POLICY. jElec. Tel. Copyright -United Press Assn.) (Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.! LONDON, May 20. !Mr. Churchill, speaking at the opening of the military tournament, said that now we had again entered the broad sunlight of a victorious peace we had to maintain, on the scale of the army before the war, a small defensive army for Imperial police duty to keep alive those traditions which, generations hence, might be the means of enabling our various communities, usually unprepared, to escape disaster.
