tions may have permitted it to deteriorate but
the American people still cling with fondness and
faith to the principle Of well trained, efficient
and strong naval establishment to guard the
republic. ..
Edwin DENLY, newly appointed secretary of
the navy, shortly after he had received his ap-
pointment, said that 'the peculiar situation of
the United States demands and justifies strong
first line Of Defense He favors the present
building program.
primarily my duty will be to help keep the
navy and marine corps not only ready to fight,
but fit TO fight, and trained to the minute" he
said.
President-elect Harding recently informed
congress that he favored no curtailment of ap-
preparations for the navy. A thorough reorgan-
ization of the naval branch may follow the
Inauguration of the new president. Bitter COM
plants from within the navy itself regarding
administrative methods and the damage which
they inflicted upon the morale of the personnel
have been heard from high quarters. New blood
may quickly remedy this situation.

Ripping RHYMES
BY WALT MASON
THE PRICELESS THIRST

Some thirsty people wall and sigh
because there is no gin; some day
their costly thirst will die, and COM
fort will begin. A little while they'll
dodge the cops and go to wild ex-
tremes to carry home a sack of hops
and work out home-hrew dreams. \
little while they'll Pink it sport to
trail the bootleg shark through alley
foul and squalid court, to some Sc
questered park: put they'll soon tire
Of all such brewS that work like this
commands, that make man take off
his shoes and walk upon his hands
A little while they'll walk in gloom,
and yearn for things TO drink, and hair
restorers they'll consume, and many
brands of ink. While yet this thirst
of theirs endures they'll drink all
things that kick, and lini1nents and
SPAWN cures will make their innards
sick. But all things perish and decay.
like roses in the dell and cen thirst
will fade away, if it's not nurtured
well. And TO these wights will come
time, a morning fair will come, when
they'd refuse to give a dime TO greet
the Demon Rum. And often they will
wonder why they used to wildly beef
because they lacked a shot of rye to
multiply their grief

Maintain the Efficiency of the Navy

The economical administration of our govern
ment should not be stressed to the point where it
will hamper the construction of ships for the
navy and the recruiting of men to operate them.
The naval construction program, which is de-
signed to give adequate navy, should be
carried out without fail.
Our geographical position imperatively de-
mands a naval strength of sufficient power to
guard our coast line and insuar possessions while
our diplomatic attitude suggests the necessity of
a navy to protect our rights.
It is highly improbable that the United States
will entangle itself in any European alliance that
will make it party to the settlement of con-
tinental disputes. So long as we maintain our
traditional policy of refraining from entering
into foreign alliances and combinations, will
be forced to stand alone and to rely upon our
own naval strength to guard our rights.
The strength of our navy, however, does not
dered to be constructed but also in the fighting
condition of the ships in commission. If scores
of ships are tied up at the docks, waiting for
appropriations that will permit the making of
repairs; and if other scores idle because the
navy does not have enough sailors to man them,
naval strength is merely deusion. All the
ships of the navy should always be in fighting
trim as far as their mechanical features are con-
cerned, and there should always be enough
trained men to operate them. These are pre-
requisites of every effort to maintain our navy.
Since Roosevelts day there has been a live
interest in navy. Succeeding admnistra-

Assistant Secretary Roosevelt

justification in naming Theodore Roosevelt as
sstant secretary of the navy. He the
appointment by his own ability. A graduate Of
Plattsburg and holding a commission he re-
signed in order to enter the war private and
be among the first to see service in France. The
end of the war found him lieutenant-colonel.
He declined to let his name be used as a candi-
date for a seat in congress, but fought his way
to the legislature. All his offices have come to
him by virtue of his ability and his own work.
He has not permitted his family name to sweep
him into office.
The act on the part of Presdent-elect Hard
ing in selecting him for a place in the navy de-
partment was a gracious one. Mr.. Roosevelt
father once held the post, and the incumbent
will enter upon his duties with the best wishes
of the nation.
