Durinq Congressional Debate
He Declares for Amendment
to New Naval Bill

James D. Phelan, United States
senator from California. made q
strong speech in the senate on behalf
of an amendment to the naval appro-
priation act, requiring one-third of the
u. s. feet TO be stationed in Pacific
waters.
Referring to the strategic. economic
and population aspects Of Hawaii. he
declared that this outpost should be
well-guarded.
He said in part:

ii entirely discretionary in time Of
great emergency with the president
OF the United States to move q Paci.

submit that there IL first very
great necessity FOR feet in the Paci-
fic, and, secondly, that there is an
equally great necessity for an express

the dasirability q establishing affect

"The Panama Canal is supposed to
have multiplied the. usefulness of the
feet. We know from competent aul
fEority that the Panama Canal is sub
ject to interruption eifher by accident
or design. In times OF profound
peace 1t is q useful connection be-
tween the Pacific and the Atlantic
so far as naval operations are con.
cerned. In time of necessity It will
fail us because the vigilant enemy
will strike at our most vulnerable

In the tame way hang up a piece Of
crumpled paper, 4 rattle, rubber ring,
or any top which Is not hard. or sharp
edged.
