U. 5. in Fight TO End,
Knox Tells Graduates
Of Marine School
Navy Head Sees Peace
Of Justice, Maintained
By Force if Necessary
BY CLAUDE A. MAHONEY,
Star Staff Correspondent.

QUANTICO. Va. Nov. l.-Cl-
making a speech today to grad
yates of the Marine Corps School,
Secretary Of the Navy Knox made
the declaration: We're in this fight
to a finish. We will make no peace
at its end save peace of justice and
right. Then We will put our strength
to the task of maintaining that
peace-by force if necessary
He did not mention the sinking of
the destroyer Reuben James by
name, but told the analogy of the
first dead his company saw in the
Spanish American War.
The Nation has captured some
thing of that feeling today" he said,
adding. I'VE are standing in the pres
ence of our dead, Navy dead, and
the whole Nation mourns and glories
with them
Declaring he was reiterating the
words of President Roosevelt re-
garoing the fight to the finish, Mr..
Knox said we need have no doubts
as to the Righteousness of our cause
IF we are not right" he said.
then all civilization is a mistake
and all progress halts"
He characterized the German sub
marine sinkings as worse than
piracy, because the old-time pirates
gave their victims chance to
fight" He also warned the gradu-
ates that personal liberty is not
something their parents could give
them, but something they must pre-
serve for themselves. History is full
of stories of nations that let them
selves grow soft, he said. citing the
fall of France as the perfect Geth-
Semene."
The fight the Nation is in is pri-
marily a fight of self-defense, the
Secretary told the graduates, adding
that self-defense is one of the most
primeval instincts of man. A fight
in elf-defense requires no juStifica-
ton in international law, he added
The type of warfare waged by the
Axis never has been accepted as legal
warfare, Mr.. Knox said.
The Secretary said the graduates
were lucky to get a chance" to play
mans part in time of great dan
ger when men would be tested.
