"The British cannot control their destinies while another nation knows that in 12 hours it could destroy the nerve center of the empire. "The country is safe only so long as it can be protected by the strong arm of its own citizens. We must all maintain our navy. We scrapped battleships in accordance with our undertakings at the Washington conference. Other nations have not yet taken that course, among them a nation which is allied with us and friendly toward us, but which at this moment is diplomatically divergent from our views." Lord Birkenhead said there must be a re-evaluation of British maritime and aerial power. AVENATTI FUNERAL HELD IN L. A. TUES. Funeral services for Mrs. L.
