fairs that Japan would be no match
for the United States in battle, Mr..
Bard told the audience:
Il can tell you here, gentlemen,
that the Navy does not underesti-
mate Japan's power. Perhaps
the fact has not been stressed
enough. but that is a prime reason
why our naval defense Is being
rushed at top speed-a speed which
you all can observe for yourselves
at the shipyards in this vicinity"
The Nation has learned, he said,
that we must be at all times able
to protect ourselves within the re-
sources of the Nation. He empha-
sized the United States must be able
to withstand attack by ANY combi-
nation of powers"
British Fleet Not Invulnerable.
I'm the Atlantic he added, I'VE
have had to face the hard fact that
the great/British fleet is not invul-
nerable, that it is faced by a power
full enemy, and that it is constantly
suffering casualties This is again
fact which you can observe for
yourselves as damaged British ships
put in at ports in this vicinity for
repairs" Previously. he said, we had
felt that our interests in the Atlantic
were we'll protected
Mr.. Bard predicted that IF COM
mon sense and the hard school of
experience teach us anything, never
again will we be faced with the enor-
nous task of building a tWo-ocean
Navy overnight"
The Nation" he added, will
never again scrap its Navy or allow
It's sea defenSes to lapse by default" +"
Asserting his faith in success of
the defense effort, the speaker ex-
pressed the belief that the time will
come when the term national emer-
gency" will refer only to the past
and the words Adolf Hitler" will
refer only to an unpleasant chapter
Of history.

As tension frightened in relations
between Japan and the United

Navy Ralph Bard told Norfolk
tVaD audience last night that in
event of trouble in the Pacific that
trouble will not be a minor one"
The Navy understands and Is
thoroughly prepared to face that
fact" he said in an address before
the Norfolk Association of Com
merce.
AT present the Pacific is like a
tinder box that is waiting for a
spark that will explode all over
the eastern quarter of the globe"
he declared. Naturally we all hope
that such an explosion will never
occur, but the Navy has long had
to face the possibility that it might
occur"

Treasury Studies Plan
For Prepayment OF
Income Taxes
Special Security Moy
Be Sold to Ease Heavy
Rotes Being Considered
BY the Associated Press.

pS tHt HooOtIaltu EiNSs'
Secretary Morgenthau announced
today the Treasury was working
on a plan" to enable citizens to
prepay their taxes under the heavy
rates being considered by Congress.
He said he could not give details,
but generally the Treasury was
thinking of selling a special kind of
security which could be used by
taxpayers to pay their taxes instead
of paying cash.
Thus, a man expecting to pay $120
income tax could prepare himself
by buying a $40 security every month
of the preceding year. When tax
time came around, he would turn
over the securities, and avoid the
necessity of borrowing money or
disturbing his personal budget in
order to meet his tax bill
Estate Tax Payments.
Mr.. Morgenthau said Defense saw
ingS stamps and bonds, which went
on sale today, were not adaptable
to this purpose. and different type
of security was being studied
Mr.. Eccles, in discussing methods
of preventing imitation, advocated
in addition to the taxes on cor
porations steps to get labor to
work longer hours and to prevent
strikes and unjustifled wage and
salary increases"
He advised against purchase by
the public of materials needed for
defense, saying they would have a
tendency to bid up prices and lead
to imitation.
This is the time for the public
TO build up backlog of future re-
quirements, he said, especially of
consumers durable goods, such as
automobiles, housing and the like
that are now using some of the ma
terialS needed in defense. Instead
of spending existing funds and
mortgaging future incomes for these
goods, it would be far better to
defer these expenditures until the
time when the Governments de-
fenSe OUTLAWS can be reduced. At
such time the backlog of buying

ton Every possible means should
be Immediately explored to increase
the number of employees at work, to
further develop the training pro-
gram and to speed up the building
of the additional shipbuilding ways
already authorized.
II know from long experience of
the great capacity of our ship build
ers and of the skill of the workers
who build the ships, but our mer-
chant feet must be expanded faster
than we had planned so that ships
and more ships will be available to
carry the food and the munitions of
war to the democracies of the
world"
Admiral Land conferred on this
intensified shipping program with
the President at the White House
Yesterday, telling reporters as he
left that he had reported on the
status of the purchasing legislation
now on Capitol Hill. The chairman
made it clear, incidentally, that it
is the administration wish to have
this legislation enacted without
strings attached to the manner in
which the purchased or requisi-
toned ships are to be used-in other
words, that some may be trans
ferred to foreign registry. that
others NAV be nut into our dOmes-
tic trade, or any other disposition
which seems most advisable when
the vessels are finally available.
Summing up his conference, the
admiral added that the President
wants everything expedited like
hell"

told the annual session of the

merce of the commissions program

Need for Speed in Production Problems IS III
Senate Group End WI

Force Rseeleifronts into Lie

WASHINGTON, June 24L(R
With military leaders emphas-
izing the need for speed In q
serious" defense production sit
uation, the Senate Military Com
mittee endeavored today to de-
eide which of two Legislative
proposals was the most desir-
able vehicle for empowering
President Roosevelt to force the
cooperation Of ''recalcitrant" in
dustrialists In the armament
effort.
One measure authorizing the
chief executive to confiscate any
property, real or personal, need
ed for national defense was in
troduced last week by Chairman
Reynolds (D-NC), at Behest Of
the War Department.
ALTERNATE PROPOSAL
An alternate proposal was
presented yesterday by Robert
p. Patterson, Under Secretary
Of War, with the avowed objec-
tive Of modifying those senator's
who have assailed the original
bill as "A Step Toward Military
Dictatorship"
The alternate specifies that
the President may requisition
ships, ornaments, munitions,
machines, tools. patents and
other defense production facili-
ties, but eliminates the refer
ence to real property.
Patterson, explaining that
the government can seize real
property under existing law,
said his substitute measure was
much narrower" in scope than
the Reynolds measure but that
IL was adequate"
Admiral +. M. Robinson,
Chief Of the Nays Bureau Of
ships, informed the committee,
however, that the navy prefer
red the Reynolds proposal.
NO RESTRICTIONS
1T places no restrictions, and
would permit the Government
to take over anything needed for
national defense, which Il q Il
should be-" Admiral Robinson
said. 1T would be used only
~ Z last-ditch resort anyway.
This bill would make every bus
