The continental powers , he said , were i

Comparing the pay of the personnel
CJoschen said tb't while Great Britain j

paid only 445,000. Ho could not uni
stand how that was , but that was all

Referring to shipbuilding he said the ci

After n study of these programs he poll
out that It was not reassuring The Un

This had forced the government to d

the hope that those who were proposlni

In conclusion the first lord of the ai

Mr. Goschen emphasized the purely
