 Ships of war are not necessarily agents of destruction.
 We want access to every free body of water in the world and the United States is not going to be satisfied un- less American warships are allowed to pursue their peaceful erTands wherever American fciEiZens and American merchant ships may go.

The tables of newspaper offices are heavy this time of year with the annual reports of great off cegs of the United States Govern 1nent. These books are dreary to the eye and dreary to the mind unless they are read with a cer- tain amount of imagination Tn this case they become more in teresting than today's best seller. Too bad they are not more read by more persons. Even editors sometimes neglect the duty.
 
 Here is the report of A W. Mel lon. Secretary of the Treasury, of whom his partisans speak SO kindly and those not of his side so bitterly. as is the merry way of our American political system. What can have reasonable ex- pectation of greater dreariness than the report of the Secretary of the Treasury?
 
 There Is gold. for instance, ''heavy to get and light to hold" What volumes have been written about the tr3fling treasure. which Capt Kidd. the pirate. is said 70 have buried. A hoard which. according to Walter Nichols. is conoeaIed somewhere on Pleasure Beach. Thousands remember the wooden statue at the entrance to the beach, dedicated to the fam ous pirate.
 ~e~
 The United States hold 50 per cent of the worlds stock of none tary gold. The precious metal is coming in. though not as fast as It used to
 It will come faster when for eign countries pay the debts they owe us.
 
 Foreign countries cannot pay their debts in gold They owe s1O.oOo.OOO.o0O. There Is less than ten billions of monetary gold t7 the world. of which the United states owns half.
 Here's a nice problem to think over between one round of golf and the next. If the United States had that other s5,ooo.ooo,ooo vvouId it be better or worse off? Secretary Mellon has nothing to say to that problem He is a bit worried about owning half of if. or a billion more than the nor nal amount for this country He says. this gold. itself di- rectlv infIationary, has q tendency to expand credit and to create an unnatural ease of money for purposes of expansion and specu- 7ation." The problem is now a bit simpler
 IT a billion in gold too much sacrifices productive enterprise to gambling fever, S5,O00.ooO,Oo0 more would make America a paradise for gamblers.
 
 Gold would be flowing more freely to America were 1t not for strikes in Europe, which decrease gold production; if the Tindus were not learning to use gold in stead of silver. and if Americans hadn't been buying such a lot of foreign securities
 This last makes another prob lem for the thoughtful business man to ponder over.
 The gold goes out to buy the securities. but securities will earn dividends and the investors eX- pect to set them.
 IT there isn't gold enough to permit Europe to pay it's S1o.- 100000 of debt in gold. there won't be gold enough so that Eur ope can pay its dividends to Americans in gold. America must take goods.
