WANTED TO KNOW
What sort of an
electric
lighting
sys-
tem
have
we
in
this town at ali?
The
lights at their best
are ltke
dim
lanterns
and
many
times
in
different
places
no
Irght can
be turned
on.
Does
a monopoly
stand
for being a hindrance
to progress
?
If not, will something
be
done
to
have
the lighting system
in
Christiansted
im-
improved,
or someone
else given a chance
to serve the publicin
the
desired
way?
People say they
may ve willing to put up
with rude treatment
ifonly they coull get
decent
lights, but not with rudeness
and
bum lights.

London,
March
17th.—Introducing
the
naval
estimates
in
the
House
of
Com-
mons
today,
Mr.
Walter
Long
said
that the Govt.
was firmly adhering
.o the
traditional policy that th enavy shou.d
not
be inferior to the navies of other
powers.
Then
alluding
to
the
United Stat:s
as
the only country
whose
navy
approached
that of Great Britain in strength,
he said
that
the
idea
of competition
in
zrma-
mants
between
the
United
States
and
Great
Britain
was
repugnant,
adding,
‘““We hope
and
helieve
that
if thare
is
any emulation
between
us, it is likely to
be
in reaching
a
decision
for redicing
th:t
ample
amount
of
naval
strength
which
we alike possess
over
other
naval
powers.
This is he declared
the founda-
tion of the Britich naval policy.
