General Pershing declared aRri-

was his opinion that American gen
aus could and would develop such a
program.
Forming a part of such a program
should be conversation Of timber re-
sources. solution Of flood menages,
development Of waterways, shipping
and world markets, he said. Success
of the last, he added, depended on
The upbuilding Of an ample, modern
merchant marine under the Ameri-
can flag. The general also advocated
adequate naval protection.
I engage in boastful and I'M
ssemly naval competition would be
deplorable. We should simply build
mp our navy 70 such a strength that
our seaports and our ships Of COM
meree would be assured Of proper
protection. Then and only then can
our country maintain commercial in
dependence in keeping with our
place in the family OF nations.

more chickens tonight. A rather

eat nothing but black chickens. The
