"- eeeiaejajnl I have always 1 advocated and voted in congresa lor liberal appropriation for 11 rat claaa naval veaeela, believing it the most effective bond for peace with other countries. I think It a wis naitnv for our srovernment to maintain efficient navy yards and keep at home for naval maneuvrea our largest bat tleships, equally divided when practica ble between stations end ports on the Atlantic and Paclflo coasts. I do not think there is the slightest apprehen sion for war with Japan or any other country George CV Perkins, United States Senator from California. The United States will not give Japan or any country Just 'cause for war, and I have no fear of Japan or any other couritry giving the United States dust causa for war. . The erulalnavof a part or our navy in in recino ocean nee, in my judgment, no more signification than the cruising of part Of our navy in tne Atlantic ocean, or tn cruiami of the Dreadnourht and other ships o the Enarlish navy and of other nations in the Caribbean and other watera of the world. some allowance must oe made for the etress under which news papers labor In finding something to talk about during the dull season.. be prepared.
