asked what was the naval standard of the present Government before the introduction in March last of the 60 per cent. superiority in ships of the "Dreadnought" class?

Mr. CHURCHILL

I cannot do better than refer the hon. Member to the full statement made in this House by the Prime Minister on the 26th May, 1909.

Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

Cannot the right hon. Gentleman give me a definite answer to a question so straightly put as this?
