The greatest place of command is really the place of obedience, and the greatest place of honor is really the place of service. It is your duty in the part you propose to take to make the largest contribution you can to the general nship of your country. Not long ago I heard a navy chap- lain refer to the sage advice of the Apostle to put first things first.

Find- ing that they are secure In the pos- sesslon of life and property, they can begin the establishment of their liberty. Gradually ;this policy de- velops until the last vestige of mon- come entirely free and self-govern. ing. Privileges of Free People There is no need for me to large In this presence upon the privileges which come to the indi- vidual in the development of a free people. They are the common ex- periences of our dally life and the precious heritage of all Americans. Kreedom in religion and In expres- sion, popular education, increasing production and more equitable dis- tribution, a larger independence of the mind and of the body, the works of charity and humanity, a broader culture, all mark a material and spiritual advance which follows in the progress of this development. In all this progress and all this ad- vance it has never been possible fo maintain that first essential of se- curity without a background of military force. It is that back- ground, that support, that service which your profession helps to pro- vide, that is four contribution, one of the first things, one of the es- sentials to the civilian life of our country. You may not he actually employed in production, but you are helping to increase the value of pro- duction and maintain the public peace without which there could be no production. Tt is my firp conviction that the duty of national defense, like the general duty of citizenship, should be broadly extended and borne by all our people. We do not believe in or wish to bear the expense to maintain large standing military forces. The very genius of a re- public would be threatcned by that policy, Weedom, independence, self- government are all opposed to any- thing that resembles a mercenary force. But while military science has advanced to such a degree that t is necessary constantly to main- tain a considerable body of trained experts in that profession. the true spirit of American institutions re- quires that each citizen skould be potentially a soldier, ready o take his place in the ranks in time of peril, either in the. field or in the necessary productive activity. —Not all of our people can pursue a long course of study so as to become trained military experts any than they give up the time come _trained physicians, diplomats, or statesmen. Our tary forces on land and sca repre- sent the necessary accomplishment in that profession the same as other professions are represented in civillan life.

It may not have oc- curred to some of you, but I feel warranted in asserting it to be true that your success lies in giving a very 1 support to the civilian | lite of tion and to the pro- | motion of the public peace. It 1 were not convinced that this is true, I should question the usefulness of the National Navy If we are to heed th nonition to put first things first, little deliberation would reveal to us that one of the main essentials which lies at the very beginnings of civilization is that of security. It is only when people tan feel that their lives anu the property which the has produced today will continue to be safe on the morrow that there can be that stability of value and that economic progress on Which man development has always rested. We do not know of any peo- ple in history where this has not heen first provided through some form of monarchy supported by a sufficlent military forca. This condi- tion of security has long been pro- verbially characterized among Eng- lish-speaking people as “the King's | peace.” All violations of that secur- lity were crimes against the crown | as in our republic they are crimes | against the state or the nation.
