NAVY LEAGUE PLANS 10 HOLD NAVY DAY Movement Has Hearty Approval of Acting Secpetary of Navy Washington, Bept, 14—A proposal by the navy league to set aside a Navy Day to be observed throughout the country the last Friday in Octo- ber “to inform the people not only of what their navy has done for them in its glorious past achievements, but 8180 of what their navy is doing from day to day, and will do for them in the future,” has recelved the hearty support of Acting Secretary Roosevelt. The idea was suggested several weeks ago and submitted by Presl- dent R. J. Kelly of the navy league after a meeting of the league's exe- cutive committee, Kelly's Letter. Mr, Kelly's letter and Col Roose- velt's reply made public by the lat- ter, follow in part: “My dear Mr. Secretary: “At & meeting of the executive com- mittee of the navy league of the United States, it was decided to set apart a day to be known as Navy Day, to 1y observed throughout the country with appropriate ceremonies, The day proposed is the last Friday in October. “The navy league, as you know, is a civillan organization, founded for the purpose of promoting a more gen- eral knowledge of the navy. The people should be informed in every detail asto what their navy is doins for them, for it is on them that the navy depends for its support. “The navy has a splendid record of which our people may justly be proud. It is our great defensive weapon and has never caused a war. It has been a gpotent factor, throughout its history, in preserving peace. The navy {tself earnestly worked to bring about the success of the recent limi- tation of armament conference. Potent Factor “Above these considerations, how- ever, the navy is a great and potent factor for the development and aid of our pgople during peace time. I do not beljeve the farmers and manufac- turers of this country reallze how closely the navy is interwoven with their every-day affairs. The navy is interiocked with many great benevol- ent assoclations, such as the Red Cross, Y. M. C. A, Knights of Colum- bus, Jewish Welfare board, Navy Re- lief, Near Eaat Rellef and others. These great humanitarian organiza- tions that care for the needs of the sick and the poor, always assume as & part of their duty, aid fogthose who are in our naval service. “Every year thousands of young men return to civillan life after a tern of service in our navy. These young men are better citizens in very way, for, in addition to the love! of country which is {nculcated through service to the flag, they have beén practically fitted by work in many diverse occupations to earn their livelihood. g Day of Information “Through navy day we propose to inform the people not only of what their navy has done for them in its glorious past achievements, but also u 1 in probate court Willlam E.

DEATHS AND FUNERALS of what their navy is doing from day to day, and will do for them in the future. “It is the earnest desire of the navy league to secure the co-opera- tion of the navy department and the navy. The participation of the navy in the celebration of Navy Day in any way you may suggest, will be cordial- ly appreciated. Yours very truly, (Signed) R. J. KELLY, Honorable Theodore Roosevelt, Acting Secretary of the Navy, Washington, D. C.” Secretary’'s Letter. “My Dear Mr. Kelly: “I want to thank you for your letter. Your idea is sound in every way, I think it particularly good be- cau!e of certain physical conditions ‘we have in the country. The people of the seaboard are reasonably famil- {ar with the navy. They see the great ships. They know the navy men. In the interlor of our country, it is, how- ever, a different story. The people of Kansas and Oklahoma do not get the opportunity for first-hand informa- tion that their fellow-ountrymen of Californla and New York do. They do not realize that the navy serves them equally with the people of the seaboard. I hope you will make an special endeavor to famlliarize the citizens of our great inland states with the every day service their navy does for them. “The navy will be glad to co-oper- ate with you in any way it can. I am confident this really patriotic work you are undertaking will be of great service to the country. Belleve me, Yours very truly, (Signed) THEODORE ROOSEVELT. Mr. R. J.
