raond Chapman, Mar piayer of tbe
Cleveland American league club
and idol of local fans, this morn-
ins received the reverential hom
age of sorrowing Cleveland.
'. While the bell of St. John's;
Roman Catholic cathedral where
the services" wen; held, was toll
in r, thousands of persons stood
with bared heads as tho body of
Chapman, who died in New ork
last Tuesday, victim of a pitched
ball theie Monday, was. carried to
the aitar.
' It was the largest funeral in
Cleveland In years and not since
the visit here of Cardinal Mercier,
hero of Belgium, has such a mass
of people attempted to enter the
cathedral. ,
Tears were in the eyes of men,
women p.nd children In the throng
which was so dense that mounted
police and patrolmen strove al
most in vain to keep streets open
to traffic. j i
The members of the Cleveland
team arrived from New York this

SEATTLE. Aug. 20. Mainte
nance of an army ana navy
wholly adequate for the national
defense. Improvement ot existing
naval shore facilities cn the Pa
clfic coast and acceptance of the
league of nations as a : solution
of the problem of competitive ar
maments among the nations ot
the world, were urged by Frank
lin D. Roosevelt. Democratic vice
r residential candidate. -ln an ad
dress here tonight.
I am not a militarist. Mr.
Roottevelt said. There are very
few ot our fellow citizens who
are. but the great majority of
them will agree with me In the
demand that the United States
shall maintain at all times an
army and navy wholly adequate
lor national defense. That Is tbe
startlag point. The resulting
question immediately arises
what Is an adequate army or
na'vy?
"Our navy, for Instance. Is at
the present time In seconHplace.
It is very nearly equal to the navy
of Great Britain. It is more pow
erful than the navy of France or
of Japan.
"Let is examine the future. We
bave three courses open. The
first is to reduce our army and
ravy without regard to what the
other, nations or the world are
dotnr.
I feel certain that tbe people
of this country will never stand
fcr the danger that that Involves.
"Tbe second Is, we may return
to the old pre-war condition ot
competitive building between the
great nations. That will mean,
without question, an Increase In
the already enormous cost which
we sre sustaining.
"The third alternative Is the
league of nations itself. The pri
mary purpose of that league Is
anti-war. and one of its first du
ties will be the limitation ot in
ternational armaments. I have no
doubt that If the great powers
meet around the table they
111 be able to reacb an agree
ment by which a fair relative
ratio of the different armies snd
navies In the world can he work
ed out. Under this ratio the
United States and Great Britain
would undoubtedly have navies
superior to those of any other
power, but the point Is that the
size ot these navies the size ot
fell navies would be materially
reduced.
