islands our Navy would have an out
post to 60 to if someday it were or
dered to fight Japan.
But Americas main problem is here
at home, in the Americas. We have a
big job of defense on our hands, job
in which the Navy plays an important.
though not an exclusive, role. And to
plan wisely, we must face the facts.
This is no time to kid ourselves. 1t is a
time to determine clearly what We
have and what we need.
As to the Navy, we can say this
much. confidently. on the credit side:
Completion of the present construc-
ton program will give us an adequate
naval defense for our American World
which means the entire Western
Hemisphere. A two-ocean Navy is not
essential.
But here are the danger spots that
we must watch continually:
Even at full speed, cur naval de-
fenses will not be at peak efficiency
until 1914. The building program must
not be relaxed.
Even in 1914 our naval forces will
be adequate for hemisphere defense
only and not for successful offensive
warfare in foreign waters.
And fnallv - even in our own
hemisphere an effective United
States Navy depends first. last and
everlastingly on the defense of the
Panama Canal. And as first step in
safeguarding the canal. it is our right
and duty to demand that the world
stay out of this hemisphere. We can
be safe only as long as no enemy has
air and naval bases in this American
World. It is a national policy to which
no spirited American should object.

not break through and defeat her.
Resting quietly on the defensive, she
could choose her time and place for a
naval battle. All the advantages would
be hers. She stands squarely athwart
the flanks of our approaches to the
Philippines and Asia. No ships, ex-
cepting only those concentrated in
our grand battle force, would dare put
their noses into this Western Pacific.
Yet an excited American public opin-
ion might demand that our Navy
embark on the dangerous and futile
task of digging out the japanese feet
and destroying it.
Evening star., 1940-02-11

Navy men cannot ignore even such
extreme possibilities. They say frankly
that they do not make our national
policy, but only try to carry it out.
Like all Americans. they would re-
luctantly give up our great dreams of
trade domination in the Western
Pacific, but they want us either really
to get in the Philippines or actually
get o,H of them. If we get in" they
will need a Larger navy and great

choose to take it. But will we leave?
Or will we backtrack and retain the
responsibility, while giving the Fill
pinos sufficient independence to get
themselves and us into grave inter-
national difficulties?
That is a nightmare problem for our
Navy. 1t can be stated in these words:
our Navy brains fear that someday
they may be forced by public clamor
to carry naval war to japanese
waters. Nonsense. you say America
would never demand such war. But
wait! Suppose Manila was besieged.
while our 5000 soldiers were still
there, and while our flag flew over the
great fortress on Coregidor Island, at
the mouth of Manila Bay. A rising
sentiment for rescue and revenge
would demand that our Navy and
Army move out into a mission so
dangerous and difficult as to be moth
ing short of fantastic.
To successfully carry noso! car to
Jatanese scaters, to dig out and destroy
the japanese fleet, Wonld take Mary
two OF three times as large as the May
ve WiU have BY 1914.
Yet the American public is con-
vinced that we can easily defeat
Japan. As matter of fact, it might
actually prove impossible - except
after years of deadly and costly attri-
ton that might finally starve Japan
to terms. Japan need only keep her
great feet secure and intact within the
guarded entrances to her Japan Sea.
