Description

Excerpt from The British Share in the War But if we are bound to be outspoken as to our deficiencies we are compelled to the rule of silence as to much of our past achieve ment and as to all of our future designs. We cannot tell the world the strength of our army in France or how many men and guns we have sent to the Dardanelles or how large a force we are reserving for Home Defence. Though we know that our rate of shipbuilding is the fastest in the world we must be silent as to the new battleships, cruisers, submarines and destroyers which are steadily raising our margin of naval superiority, already great before the war, over the fleet of our adversary. We can say nothing as to the additions to our aircraft, as to increased and increasing output of our munition factories or as to the measure of financial assistance which we have rendered to the allies. These things are known to the Government: the ordinary citizen hardly enquires concerning them, acquiescing in that state of contented ignorance which in war time becomes one of the cardinal virtues.
