The report that the German corvette
Olga had sunk the United States ship
Sipsie il without foundation, but
II has served one good purpose in
opening the eyes Of the American peo-
pie TO the necessity OF navy. Never
within O quarter Of century has the
importance Of having strong coast de-
lenses and a powerful feet been more
apparent. We are great nation and
constantly growing. The other large
powers are jealous of us, but viii never
show us due respect until o ur navy is
sufficiently formidable to make GER
tain that We viii not be triiied with

is something we cannot do so long Is
