Quoting its participation in the war.

thereof may be removed"

We were prepared and if We had plans
before and at the beginning OF the
war similar 10 those announced on
paper some time after we declared
war. and II such plans We're in ac-
cordance with the policy which was
actively and actually pursued AT the

the war. then is IL not a grave error
that all the forces. men and ships
which were actively engaged i'm the
war zone at the end Of this six months
delay were not there at the end Of
the first month";
Declares War Prolonged.
Granting that the work OF our
navy was necessary and was based on
sound policy and military principles
il is indisputable that IL any delay
occurred in .-->cing that policy into

and. as q consequence lives and re-
sources needlessly sacrificed.
II such is not the case. that fs.
II the work Of our navy was not
necessary then our naval contribution
