SECY. BONAPA
ON THE NAVY NEEDS.

Baltimore. Feb. 22.--The thirtieth an
nual commemoration day OF the Johns
Hopkins university was celebrated to-
day, Secretary OF the Navy Bonaparto
delivering the principal address.
BoNAPARTEs ADDRESS.
/ answer the first OF the two dues-
tons have preflxed to this little pa
per by saying that we need our navy
to make and keep ourselves such ma
ton as Washington hoped and believed
We should become, TO assure what he
called the rank due to these United
States among nations" not as mat
ter Of vanity but us needful TO our safe
ty and our credit, as at once the meas
ure and the sanction OF our national
duty TO mankind.
To understand It's true utility and
full mission, however, we must con-
stantly bear IN mind that the navy ~
essentially a branch of the country's
military strength, II exists that 1t may
fight II need be, and to be really useful
II must be sufficiently strong and sum
clently prepared for its work, to meet
at any moment any enemy IL might be
called on to encounter
The same thought gives us the an
swer TO my second question; The needs,
what Il ought to have and. indeed, TO
do It's work and do this well. In the
first place IT needs a great deal OF mon
ey. for modern warfare is already very
expensive and grows more expensive
daily.
The second great need OF the navy
is, to my mind. q thorough and nuspar-
ing, but fair and intelligent criticism.
nl.- Sole L.. a.
needs perhaps more imperativcly than
aught else an assurance that the pub
lie sympathizes with its work that the
public knows and feels It's value to the
nation.
To recruit our sea service We have
never had recourse 10 consumption In
any form. We trust with n confidence
which the event has hitherto justified,
TO the patriotism and military spirit OF
our seafaring folk for the additional
men we shall need In the event Of war.
In time OF peace, however, we must
make our service attractive TO men
such as we shall need In war II wa
hope for trained sailors when that time
shall come. Doubtless this means a
heavy expense, but II means something
besides expense, The men We seek. and
Of late have I'm large measure secured,
VIII not subject themselves 10 the re-
stralnts OF naval discipline unless they
feel that as sailors they can retain their
self-respect and earn the esteem OF
their fellow Americans, To treat these
mon as outcasts when they come ashore
Is TO cripple our ships more surely
than II their guns were disa bled or their
engines put out NJ gear, the men be-
hind the guns. the men to handle and
feed the engines. are the most truly
vital factors in their efficiency, and
such men must now be trained. not for
days or weeks, but for months ANA
years, In time Of peace, n they are TO
be OF more use than hndrance In time
Of war.
