Salem and Marblehead, Mass., at War Over Which Was Birthplace of U. S. Navy By the Associated Prese. SALEM, Mass, June iz—North Shore historians have gone to war regarding the birthplace of the United States Navy. While the town of Marblehead prepared to celebrate next week the one hundred and fif- teth anniversary of the founding of the Navy, the City of Salem today made publi¢ a claim that the Navy began here 100 years before Marblehead could boast a man o war. As ten ancient cities once proved thefr right to Homer, the blind bard of Greece, so the two old settlements of the one-time Massachusetts Bay colony today delved into history to clinch their contentions. Marblehead has affirmed that the schooner Han- nah, chartered in 1775 to fight for the TUnited Colonies, was the nucleus of American sea power. Salem retorted today that to the man o' war Ketch, which sailed out of Salem in 1676, that honor really belongs. Sidney Perley, anthor of a history of Salem, put forward the case for the Ketch today in a statement given out for publication. The Ketch, tak- its name from the type of its rlf, NI!);M in trade between this port and New York. ~ As trading with the Dutch-was-forbldden by the Bay, t government, the Ketch was captured and taken to Boston in 1673. Later, at Salem, she was fitted out as a man o’ war and later was named the Sup- ply Capt. Nicholas Manning of Balem was her master. The Marblehead celebration of the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the Navy will be held June 17 and 18. Secretary of the Navy Wilbur will be among the guests and several naval vessels have been ordered to Marblehead to participate in the ex- ercises. Not content with advancing the claims of the ketch, the Salem histor- ian suggested that the schooner Han- nah belonged rather to Beverly than to Marblehead. He said: “Samuel Roads, the historian of Marblehead, wrote in his history of that town that the schooner Hannah was hired for two months for special service in the interests of the United Colonies. What evidence is there that this schooner belonged in Marblehead? It had been understood that she be- longed in 'Beverly, whither Capt. Broughton was ordered to go to take command as master.
