To all party workers, organiZa- tions and all who in any way con- tributed to our support we feel deeply indebted.

would now be alive; how much wealth would have been preserved, had the people of the Democratic nations of Europe been alert to the danger which they refused to enyision? What now might be the state of the world had people but realized that their individual security was dependent upon col- lective action against a tllreaten- ing aggresSor? That lack of fore- sight, that unwillingness to sacri- flee what would have been SO small 8 sacrifice has brought the world to the very brink of chaos, 50 that we now stand almost alone to defend ourselves not against one aggressor but what may prove to be the greatest combination Of brute forces the world has ever known. There are those who say that we can defend ourselves no matter what happens in the rest of the world; they say we can defend our shores with & two ocean navy larger than any combination of navtes in the world, but they evidently forget the fact that we have only a one ocean navy in existence ct the present time, and that neither the time nor the opportunity may ever be given to us to bring into the ocean that other navy whose completion Is four years distant. Today we have in fact e two ocean navy even though only one files the American lag. The other navy belongs to a friendly power and has interpoSed itself between Us ard chaos. We cannot let that other navy disappear; we cannot let that other people be conquer ed. The moment such an event takes place and God forbid that 1t may ever come to pass, in what ocean shall we send our navy to defend our coast? What will hap- pen to the Pacific coast if we must defend ourselves in the At. lantic?--and what will happen to our Atlantic coast if we must de- fend ourselves in the Pacific? It is for no idle purpose that the Axis has as full fiedged member Japan; and 1t is to meet no Idle threat that a greater portion of our fleet in being is in the Pacific. We may become the victim of the most gigantic squeeze play the world has ever seen and our sal- vation lies in aiding with what ever means and methods may be necessary, those nations who now fight our war while we continue the pursuits of a peaceful exist ence at home.
 The logic of this situation ap- pears to me to be ineecapable and our fears have nothing to do with the solution of the problem. Any thing short of assuring us Coni- plete security not only for the flu. ture but for the present will be tempting the fates and gambling with our national existence.
