The war which now unfortunately
rages in the far East has emphasized
in striking fashion the new possibilities
OF naval warfare. The lessons taught
are both strategic and tactical, and are
political as we'll as military. The ex

conclusive fashion that while sea-going

that the main reliance, the main stand

Medals of Honor.
/ earnestly call the attention of the
Congress 10 the need OF amending the
existing law relating to the award Of
Congressional medals Of honor in the
navy so as 10 provide that they may be
awarded 10 commissioned officers and
warrant officers as well as to enlisted
men. These justly priced medals are
given in the army alike to the officers
and the enlisted men. and IL is most un-
lust that the commissioned officers and
warrant officers OF the navy should not
IN this respect have the same rights a.
their brethren in the army and as the
enlisted men of the navy.

not afford to abandon our naval pro
