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.
A report of the Armistice day cele
bration was made by Oeneral Chair
man George Gates who outlined the
attractive program planned in honor
of the 30th snniverssry of the lm-
Dortant date. He unwt an unriH '
