NAVY'S TASK To
GUARD CITIZENS
Wilbur Tells Women at
Peace Meet Adequate
Force Is Necessary.

MISUNDERSTANDING that an eff
fective national defense rests upon
the offensive power of the United
States navy was sounded here by Sec
rotary of the Navy Wilbur before the
wOmen's conference on national de-
Tense as peace assurance.
American interests, he emphasized,
"cover the globe" and the United
States must stand ready ito protect
American citizens in their right to go
to any part Of the globe in any peace
full undertaking they deem WISE"
National defense, Mr.. Wilbur en-
phasized, is something more than mere
coast defense.
Protection for Commerce.
An adequate navy, the secretary
said, Is essential Ito protect our COM
merce on the high seas from unlawful
interference"
The American people, he said, twill
not be contented with any plan which
requires our citizens to remain within
the continental borders of the United
States in order to secure their lives,
their persons and their property"
Secretary Wilbur also. emphasized
Me value of airplanes. He said:
IF bombing planes can sink battle
ships, we want bombing planes to sink
the battleships of our enemy, and we
want antiaircraft guns on our battle
ships and aircraft to protect our bat
tleships
1--WE not only want them and need
them, but we have and are getting
them.
Our navy, like every other, is built
and maintained to fight. 1t is organ
lied for that purpose and for that pur-
pose alone.
Must Have Strong Navy.
For a great and wealthy nation like
America to disarm and subside into
pusillanimous incompetence to advo-
cate or maintain justice would be a
crime against God and man.
1T would be a denial of our inner
itance which has been won against all
opposition and attempts at oppression
by strife an sacrifice, by blood and
tears"
This nation is thoroughly commit
ted to the maintenance Of a strong
navy. We realize that the navy can
render us immune from sudden attack
by any militdristic power and that OPP
portunity will thus be afforded for the
nation to muster its resources of men
and material"
The American navy is too weak to
protect American commerce and to
keep open the 10000 miles of trade
routes over which American merchant
vessels sail, Rear Admiral w. w.
Phelps of the navy general board de-
clared.
