ADMIRAL BEATTY FAV0RS
BONDS TO IMPROVE NAVY
Would Spend 100000, 900 - Declares
Coast Is Defenseless Against Attack.

That this country could no be In a
proper state Of preparedness against
q naval attack from another country
for many years, according to the rate
of the development today, is the view
entertained by Rear Admiral Frank e.
Beatty. c~ommandant Of the United
States navy yard in Norfolk, Va, who
stated his opinion before the Norfolk
Rotary club.
81 believe in naval preparedness" he
said, ''if it takes $4,000 900 to insure
1t. | believe that congress should vest
the president with authority to issue
bonds to insure naval construction as
fast as ships can be built. The need
of preparedness is now, when we know
that we are not In position to meet
some of the world powers better equip
ped with naval offensive than we are
with naval defensive"
The bond issue he suggests would
mean an outlay of only about $15,OOO,-
600 annually, he said.
Rear Admiral Beatty reviewed the
recent operations when, as commander
of the red, or enemy, fleet he effected
a successful landing at Lynn Haven
Roads, theoretically putting on shore
10000 men with transports and open
ing the way for landing 100000 addi-
tional in four days.
The successful Invasion" he said,

ton that our coast is ~defenseless

that confronting it during the war

GET A FLAG.

In this day of agitation on the sub
ject of national preparedness one of
the simplest and most practical steps
to take would be for each family to
keep an American flag where the chill
dren can see it from day to day.
Then teach the children that the
flag of their country means more to
them than life itself, that it must be
handled with care. and looked up to
and revered as the symbol of liberty
and the champion of right, justice
and humanity.
1t is difficult to instill ideas of pa
triotism into the heads of present day
adults who have been reared in an
atmosphere of growing Indifference,
but ours will be a better nation fifty
years hence if we of to-day but per
form even a fraction of our duty to
our offspring and to our country.

JUST PLAIN CHEAP SKATES.

When war broke out thousands of
American citizens found themselves
suddenly stranded in Europe because
of inability to realize on their lines
of credit, and were unable to get out
of the war zones
They set up a mighty howl and
eventually the United States govern
ment advanced to them the funds nee
essary to get them back to America.
In each case the government eXacted
from the tourists a written agree
ment to pay back to the government
the sums advanced.
Since then the treasury department
has used every honorable mea
known to collect the money thus loan
ed it's citizens abroad. Some of this
has been repaid, but much of it has
not, and now the government has
been forced to the extremity of pub
fishing in the press of the country
the names and addresses of the dead
beats.
Whenever you see such a list just
remember that they borrowed from
Uncle Sam the funds necessary to
pull them out of the jaws of death
and now are not honorable enough
to repay the loans.
Catalogue them in your mind as
deadbeats of the first water, just
plain and unauthorized cheap skates.
That's all they are, even if some of
them are high in commercial circles,
pillars of the church, and even minis
ters of the gospel.
What a bunch!
