MEDFORD MAIL TRTBTTN"E. frfEDFOTtD. OKEGOy. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 2g. 1938. PAGE NINE E THEIR DAY AT LEGION MEET "Navy Day" wu officially obaerred by Medford post of the American Legion at the regular aeml-montbly meeting In the armory Wednesday Bight. The program was In charge of a committee of ex-navy men headed by Prank Farrell, who Introduced the speakers with remarks concerning the V, fi. navy and Its Importance as "our first line of defense." George Patterson, U. 8. naval re cruiting officer, told of the origin of Navy day and It purpose. He also reviewed the history of the American navy from Its Inception In October, 1776, citing numerous facts and fig ures on the development of this im portant unit of defense which Is sec ond to no other power In the world today. Commander Robert Bbel, who la chairman of the Navy day activities in Medio this year, was the final speaker on Hie program and pre sented a fine address, excerpts of which are quoted as follows: "The navy of the United States la maintained for two general reas ons. One la prevention of war. The other ts readiness to wage war ef fectively so that, if forced upon us, war may be brought to a close at quickly as possible .with a minimum loss of men and economlo resources. "The navy Insures our national In tegrity, supports our national poli cies, guards the continental United States and our overseas possessions nd gives protection to our cltlsens abroad. The navy can do this only U It la maintained at a strength which will prevent a serious chal lenge by any nation or nations to ny of America's vital policies, which will Insure respect by foreign states sad their people for our citizens Abroad, and which will make an at took on any part of our territory too oostly and too hazardous for any foreign nation to attempt. f Theodore Roosevelt, as president In 1902, advised the American peo ple In these words: " There should be no halt In the work of building up the navy, pro viding every year additional fighting raft, we are a very rich country, vast In extent of territory and great tn population: a country, moreover, which hei an army diminutive in deed when eomparpd with any other first class power, we have deliberate ly made our own certain foreign pol icies which demand the possession of & first class navy. ... A good navy is not provocative of war. It is the tirest guarantee of peace.' "Mechanically there Is no differ ence between the gun of a policeman and the gun of a brigand. The dif feronce lira tn their use. One Is the aymbol of security, the other the tool of plunder. Navies are no different. They may be the Insurance policy of a tranquil people or the shooting Irons of a international freebooter, The thing to remember Is that sta bility exi6ts only when the defender to stronger than the aggressor, "No earthly tragedy could ever be fts cruel as warfare. It Is terrific and aruehlng. Our naval advisors know this and feel deeply that the barrier between the American cltiren and a flaming world shall not fail. So long as that fleet la ready It la unlikely that ,our people will have to drop the plow to answer the highest cit izenship under arms, because no one will attack us If he expect oeiea. it. Is a blessing that our first line of defence is manned by the world's finest naval personnel, under wbose bluejackets and brass buttons beats the heart of loyalty to the United StRtes." In closing. Commander Bbel re peated the words of Stephen P. Chad- wlck in accepting his election as na tional commander at the recent American Leelon convention In Los Angeles. "We believe that a atrong man. well armed, keepeth the peaoe. and for that reason we pledge anew the strength of the Legton to main tain the national defense of our country." A story telling contest in which the "ex-gobs" present related some of their experiences In Uncle Sam's navy during the World war was won by Frank Farrell, second prize going to Zern Kubll.
