Secretary of War Dickiuson's sem
sational proclamation that we are
wholly unprepared to resist invasion
and that we can have no security en-
cept in a great standing army has
not created such a furore as might
have been cxl ected. The American
people are not going to get unduly
excited over the possibilities of war.
They are not seeking trouble with
any foreign nation and will not tear
their shirts off in a frenzy to provide
5attleships, guns and men to solace
the pride of the brass buttoned, gold
laced gentry who fond of the pomp
and circumstance, of miiitlry glory.
The United States never has been
prepared to resist invasion in the
sense hat Dickinson uses the term,
but we have always given u good ac-
count of ourselves when forced to
arms, and could today successfully
resist any invading army that could
be mustered against US. As to naval
supremacy, why should we desire it?
We are building two Dreadnoughts
every year and have spent a thousand
millions of dollars upon the navy in
the last ten years. Our naval ex-
penditures nov are about 800, 900,
900 a year. If. as Dickinson now
seems to infer, all this expenditure
has been for naught, what limit, if
any, would be place on future pro-
vision for slaughter;
