Importance of Our Navy

1HCuldS I% LOSdIf, III I<tSiit
 The statement that the navy is the first line of defense is no idle term. In case of war this fact would become imme- diately apparent The word from the al lies is that, whatever the issue, they prefer to do the land fighting with the central powers. The possibility of an invasion of the United States is so re- mote as to require no present concern. Our navy. however, would have it's work cut out from the start. There would be a long coast line to patrol. Cooperation with the entente powers would be best met by the conveying of merchant ships bearing ammunition and food supplies In the event of a naval engagement our battleships would join forces with the al- lied fleet. While the submarine warfare has been designated by Germany as her
 last card, it is not assured that a test of strength between the Germany navy and the allied sea forces might not fol- low, if the submarines prove a failure. Those best acquainted with conditions know why there have been no great
