every speaker addressing the Navy
League at Its annual banquet at the
New Willard last night. w. Morgan
Shuster, who arrived in Washington
only couple OF hours before the ban
Quet, added his voice to the demand for
a big navy as the best guarantor OF
peace. .... D.. 49,, ..
Gen. Horace Porter, president OF the
league, said that with the navy are
entwined some of the greatest men,
ofies of peace, stating that on the Con-
stitution, the Marblehead and at Ports

treaties have been signed. He remand
