COMMERCE: Kiwanis Hears Talk on Navy Day and More Ships; Ath- letics McLeod's Topic The U. 8. navy considered from the standpoint of its oceanborne commerce was reviewed by Father John A, Slag at the Kiwanis lunch- eon, at noon today. It was as near as the club could come to observing Navy day, formally celebrated Mon- day by the nation. Father Slag said the ocean com- merce of the young nation was, in fact, the basis of the navy's creation as it is known today. President Washington had a measure introduced in congress in 1794, he said, “to create a navy adequate to protect the com- merce of the United States from the Algerian corsairs.” The navy of the country has so often been allowed to degencrate that when the Spanish-American war ships under foreign flags to carry the | fighting fleet, said Father Slag. That is why there are bigger navy advo- U. S. Handicapped in War The nation also was handicapped in the World war for the supply and euxiliary ships. This came about ships that The result | was that it was carried in foreign bottoms and when Europe went to war, freight was left on the docks while the merchant ships of the fighting nations hurried home to participate in the war. America now has a commerce of | $14,000,000,000, and this, said Father Slag, should be an element in arriv- ing at the naval parity to be con- ference at London. Commerce is the yardstick with which, possibly, to measure the adcquateness of a navy. A larger navy is no sign of war. Policemen walking the streets are no. sign that murder is about to be com- | j mitted, nor is quinine an indication tof a high fever setting in. Just so, Father Slag gave as commercial ship building ratios among the na- tions, compared with the United | States, 2 to 1 in Japan, 2': to 1 in {Ttaly, 3 to 1 in France, 6 to 1 in Ger- many and 26 to 1 in England. Talks On Athictics Coach McLeod, of the High school, | spoke of athletics as a school factor. | He said participation on the teams at the school here had good disciplinary effect and that students had done better scholastic work because of it.
