Challenge to Common
Sense of Country,
Statement Says.

Threatened with blow from
within which would knock it into

of the world. the Navy fired its first
gun yesterday to announce to the
American people that the passage by
Congress of the naval appropriation
bill just reported would make the
naval ratio of tho United States,
Great Britain and Japan a 2h-5-3
division. in the order named.
Taking the position that the Navy
does not belong either to the Navy
Department or Congress. but to the
American people, Secretary DENLY in
a formal statement last night de-
clared 1t his duty to warn against
undue reduction in American arma-
ment. He says that the bill is a

Statement in Full.
Secretary Denby's formal state
ment follows in full:
Should the bill just reported be-
come law, it would be a blow to
the Navy and to the prestige of the
United States. Whatever appropria-
tions of men and money are allowed
the Navy will be administered by
the department in an earnest and
cheerful endeavor to keep it as ef
fective as possible. I feel that
should be recreant to a. plain duty,
however, if I did not solemnly warn
the American people that the pro-
posed reduction negatives the results
of the recent conference. is danger
Gus to the country's security and. in
my opinion. to the welfare of the
world.
IF this bill becomes a law it will
mean that five battIeships of the
eighteen provided for in the treaty
must be put IN ordinary. with care
takers. 1t will mean that, having
gathered the nations together, and
having conducted to a successful con-
clusion negotiations intended to es-
tablish the relative defensive sea
armaments of the different powers,
we. from the earnestly-insiste upon
position of equality with any nation
in the world, drop to second position
or third place. I do not believe in
making a mockery Of the conference.
do not believe in throwing away
our sea power.
Our Own Call.
I'VE called the conference. We
made the proposals. We should abide
by the conclusions. Eighteen battle
ships with their necessary auxiliaries
and shore bases were adopted for our
defense. With the passage of this
bill our international plan goes by

cars for use of the prohibition forces.

situation.
"The gunman's slogan is shoot on

this in the last few weeks" he de-
clared, and added that there had been
"a general hegira of gunmen" toward
