paying what must have seemed like an
interminable visit to my old friend
John Saunders. who at that time filled
with becoming dignity the h%igh-sound-
ing Office Of secretary Of the treasury
Of his majesty's government. In the
quaint little town Of Nassau, in the
island Of New Providence, one OF
those Bahama islands that lie half
lost to the world to the southeast of
the Caribbean sea and form q some
what neglected portion of the British
West Indies.
Time was when they had q sounding
name for themselves in the world;
when the now sleepy little harbor
gave shelter to rousing freebooters
and tarry pirates, tearing In there I'M
der full sail with their loot from the
Spanish Main.
But those heroic days are gone, ana
Nassau II given up to q sleepy trade

peace II no name for the drowsy tenor
Of the days under the palm trees and
the scarlet poincianas.

Secretary Daniels predicted that there

Not IN your day the Secretary told
the Young officers. will there be any re-
duction Of naval power We are now on
the last stretch OF building the three
years program OF naval construction which
was authorized three Years 9gO
Secretary Daniels said he had no doubt
that Congress would authorize the rec
ontmendation OF President Wilson FOR
another three year program ot construc-
ton In building ships under that program.
he sad the types of vessels would be con-
str,cted which would keep our navy
abreast uf any navy in the world.
we shall not build against any
nation. the Secretary continued, be-
cause We have faith that the league of
peace VII bring about such friendship
and understanding among al nations rs
will ultimately caused a reduction IN
armament and consequent decrease Of
expenditures for naval strength. But 50
long as this republic needs navy, we
must have one, for our own protection
and to preserve the peace of the world
that will be powerful, strong and modern.
1T would be "a sin for America, rich
and powerful, To be behoiden 10 any other
country for naval protection We must,
in whatever sort Of world police shall
be needed in the new order, contribute
rs many units ana as much strength rs

always that the maintenan'e pf the
Monroe Doctrine is our peculiar re-
sponsibihty and duty, and Tor its proper
maintenance and our duty to secure TO

the rights to which they are entitled We
must maintain navy strong enough and
powerful enough 10 measure up 70 our

Air Daniels said the navy department
intended, after the treaty Of peace is
signed, to maintain a trained and eth
cient naval reserve force which would be
