ISOLATED Press so long as our feet
retains it's present comparative
strength and efficiency we cannot
imagine that any nation, bar none,
will have the hardihood to make war
on u.s." Admiral Hugh Rodman as
serted in an address at great civic
reception here to Secretary of the
Navy Josephus Daniels and officers of
the Pacific fleet.
The advent of the Pacific feet the
admiral said, is sure to increase
greatly the commercial marine, de-
velop the harbors, give additional en-
ployment to the worker and add to
the business of the Pacific coast.
1--WE want you good people of the
Pacific coast to feel that this is your
feet, your protective force" he said,
"but you should realize that We need
your hearty cooperative assistance
in keeping up it's efficiency"
The admiral in his address said:
Second Naval Power
ITO one who is unaccustOmed to
making addresses in public, I am
afraid that you have given me rather
a large proposition in the discussion
of The Fleet, so | will cOnfine myself
to giving you a brief description OF
it, and some of the salient reasons
for sending such a powerful fleet to
this coast.
1.-TWO years ago, when we entered
ton as to who had the second largest
navy. Great Britain, of course, taking
first place.
well, that competitor has been
wiped off the face of the earth; it
has been completely eliminated; in
fact, doubly so, for not only was it
chased off the high seas and driven
into it's holes behind it's guns in its
fortified harbors, like a lot Of plague
stricken rats, but it was compelled
under stress to ANONYMOUSLY surren-
der, and then, with the usual Hun
treachery was surrepticiously sank at
it's anchorage in Scapa Flow.
"And so | repeat, in all truth, that,
it is completely annihilated; not
vestige remains; in fact, not enough
to offer a target to a well-armed ferry
boat.
Our Part in Eliminating Hun
"The primary credit for this must
he given to the British grand fleet,
which had three years Of the most
strenuous hard work in accomplish
ing this before we entered the war;
but it hOuld be remembered that
when we did enter we contributed
our full share by at once sending our
destr0yers, battleships, mining force
and other types Of vessels to the war
zone, all of which Immediately took
an active part and rendered most
valuable service.
mo further thought need be given
to any fears of Germany ever being
a menace, so long as present condi-
lions obtain.

Value of Panama Canal

eve may need additional yards,
more dry docks, and some of the
other utilities, but uner any circum-
stances, in addition to constituting
your protective force, it is sure to
greatly increase your commercial
marine, develop your harbors, give
additional work to the labOring class,
and add to the business of your COM
mercial and professional class, to say
nothing of the disbursement of pub
lie funds for the food, supplies, re
pairs, etc., Of the neer and also of
the personal funds of the officers and
men. The great wisdom Of building
the Panama canal has been amply
demonstrated, which, as you know
from the debates in congress, was
built for strategic as we'll as for COM
mercial purposes, by our recent pas
sage through it, which was accom-
plished eXpeditiously, smoothly and
without a single untoward incident.
ut leaves no doubt whatever that
should the necessity or desirabiIity
arise of uniting the Atlantic and Pa
cific fleets, in either ocean, that it
could be accomplished in a remarka-

Navy Is Our BuIWark


''It is true that we are now at peace
with the whole world, nor can we
imagine that any nation, bar none,
will have the hardihood to make war
on us, so long as our feet retains
it's present comparative strength and
efficiency; for it is a maxim in naval
warfare that an enemy which is sep
arated from us by the broad expanse
of an ocean, and which must
be crossed to attack US, must have a
superior force to our own, to expect
any degree Of success.
"a war with any country that now
eJhas a stronger navy than ours is to
my mind utterly out Of the question;
nor could l imagine that any would
be foolish enough to meet us on our
shores, or attempt an invasion.
"When our ships had all returned
from the war zone, when peace was
declared, our secretary of the navy
very wisely decided that Washing
tons adage, In time of peace prepare
for war; still held good, and that
since our Atlantic coast had hereto
fore been the most probable scene
of hostilities, as it was, that now, be-
ing at peace with the whole world,
with no prospective wars for years
to come, our Pacific coast should be
developed as our Atlantic coast had
been in bygone years.
More Than Ships Needed
"You should understand that ships
alone are not all that go to make a
navy. We must have navy yards,
dry docks, coaling stations, repair
plants, naval bases, radio, aerial and
training stations, and these must not
only be established and be ample
to take care of a feet but they must

SALTS IF BACKACHY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Drink lots of water and stop eating
meat for while if your Bladder
troubles you

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen
orally means you have been eating too
mEeh meat, says q well-known authority.
Meat Nforms uric acid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the body's urinous waste,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are Obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
a tablespoonful in q glass of water
before breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize acids in the urine 90 Il
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is . life saver for regular
meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot
injure and makes O delightful, e6er.

FIND FORTY J0KERS

Wet Amendment to BE Voted On Mon
day 10 Masterpiece Of camoufsse,
Drys Declare.

Lansing, Mich.-A wag among the
this seasons state legislature, has
pinned name upon the proposed wine
and beer amendment of the vets
which promises to stick with it until
after the election of April Z. Some
time ago the Drys issued a pamphlet
enumerating 40 flaws in the measure,
and taking his cue from this, the
capitol wit christened the amendment
The Forty Jokers" 1t Is upon the
presence of these lockers" in the
amendment, which make 1t something
other than what it purports to be,
that the Drys are basing their hopes
for the defeat Of the measure by
Michigan voters on election day.
Among the jokers enumerated Is
one, II IL said, that would make it
legal, IL the amendment was adopted,
to give wine, beer, ale or porter 20
boys and girls; another would restrict
the legislature from making any laws
that would limit the amount of alcohol
these beverages could contain and a
third feature of the amendment would
repeal the right of counties to vote on
local option, and .would hereby make
every county wet whether it so de-
sired to be or not. IL adopted the
Drys charge. the amendment would
throw Michigan wide open in a way
that the state has not seen in so years.
