SOUTH IS STRONG
FOR 4 BIG NAVY
Daniels Speaks Before Southern
Commercial Congress.
WAS NATIONAL DEFENSE DAY.
Secretary Of the Navy Declares That
the South is vitality Interested in
Maintaining An Adequate Navy,
for the South Requires a Mer-
chant Marine to Carry in
Products Abroad.


President Wilson's defense program
was outlined ana supported in address,
as delivered at Cbarieston,S c., We'd
nesday, before the Southern CONNER
cial Congress- by Secretary Daniels,
Of the Navy; Henry c. Breckenridge,
assistant Secretary IF War, and Rep
re4entative l.. P. Padgett. chairman
81 the House Naval Committee.
The days program. devoted entirely
to national defense, closed with mill
itary and naval parade by several com
panies Of state troops, and the war
ship stationed in Charleston harbor
during the congress.
Attention already has turned to the
next meeting piece. which will be Sc
ected today. Baltimore is one of the
chief contenders.
The South has a vital interest in
maintaining an adequate navy, declared
Secretary Daniels. 10 addressing the
congress
Not only has the South contributed
TO the power and glory Of the Navy in
the way of heroism and romance, he
said. but her interests are bound up
in an adequate and efficient navy
After pointing out that the South
has suffered severely for lack of ships
to carry her produce across the seas
during the present European War, Sec
rotary Daniels said:
1.-THE South cannot raise cotton and
tobacco if America is not to maintain
merchant marine for the bulk of
these crops must find markets abroad
But along with a merchant marine
goes an adequate Navy. 1t is written
IN the stars that America is to have
the former and, therefore, strong
first line of defense is indispensable in
the shape of well.proportioned and
adequate Navy. The latter is insured
in the present five-year program if
the Sixty. fourth Congress shall in
dorse the project. so earnestly approved
by the President in his recent address
to Congress.
In reviewing the South's intimate
relation with the Navy in che past,
Secretary Daniels recalled that many
of the great genuises of both Revoiu-
tionary and Civil Wars were Southern
men. The first three secretaries of
the navy were from the South, so that
the South presided over the Navy De-
partment from its organization, in
( 1898, for 20 years. he said. Virginia
contributed four secretaries. North
I Carolina five, Maryland three and
Louisiana and Alabama one each
THE South, said Secretary Daniels,
has, altogether. presided over the
Navy for period of az years ,ut of
the 1T years of its existence more
than one third Of its life.
he South, with the worthy pert
she has played in the history of the
American Navy, is not less interested
IN the Navy now than in the past. I"
