Let us estimate the situation
briefly, and consider first what kind
OF an attack we should have TO guard
against. Clearly the attacking force
would be as great as the attacking
power could spare in order TO insure
us success ana minimize its losses
This means that the attacking forces
would include battle cruisers, dread
naughts, re-dreadnaughts, scouts,
cruisers, destroyers, submarines, mine
depot ships, mine layers, mine sweep
ers, airships and aeroplanes all fully
manned and all strategically directed

What have we with which to OPP
pose this force? A smaller nunbcr
OF dreadnaughts, pre-dreadnaughts
and destroyers than the enemy would
bring: no battle cruisers, no effective
scouts, one airship recently contract
ed for. only three good acroplanes
not yet ready, an embryonic aeronau-
teal service; two mine depot ships,
one mine layer, and twelve mine
sweepers; also about fOrty-fiVe sub
marines OF all kinds and ages, distri-
butcd over the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts, Panama, Hawaii and the Phil-
lppines none Of which have ever at
tempted feats like those SO effectively
performed in foreign naVes now, and
an inadequate merchant marine from

this insufficient force, we have an
enlisted personnel insufficient even in
time of peace, and no trained reserves
and no general staff, or similar
agency to direct the whole.
