IN CASE OF WAR.

Writing under the above caption the
Washington Star says in comparing the
naval strength Of the United States
with that or Great Britain. at appears
to be generally overlooked that I'm case
of war the entire naval force of the
United States could be utilized for the
purpose OF defense or ofrensc as the
case might be, and while the coast line
of the United States is OF extraordinary
length, thus requiring an unusual
amount OF maritime preparation, the
navy of Great Britain is subject to c.
tensivc demands for the protection or
her valuable commercial interests In all
parts OF the world. In short" our con-
temporary thinks, 1T would be impossi-
bic for her to concentrate all of her
great naval strength In operations
against the United States for this
would leave exposed some dozen i'm
portant points in different quarters OF
the globe where English interests are
paramount. To relinquish the watchrul
vigilance over these ou.posts made
necessary by her colonizing policy would
be to expose her to attacks from powers
that are inimical to her interests and
Jealous OF her wide possessions. Yet. Z"
the Star Is OF the opinion that, these
FACTS do not warrant the complete re-
lance OF the United States upon exist
Ing maritime forces In case OF trouble.
IL holds that If war Is seriously CON
templated. or becomes mn actual pro
liability. the first duty OF this Govern
ment Will be TO equip itself In IL modern
fashion and to call In all the natural re.
sources In which the country is SO
rich to-day"
The extensive coast which we would
nave to guard would of course. greatly
hamper our movements in other di-
rections' but with the great resources OF
TINS country it would not be long before
we could meet the naval force of Great
britain upon equal grounds. In the
meantime the operations of the United
states would be conducted moro upon
an offensive plan than otherwise.
