The Tremendous Cost of the
, Late War Will Be Better
Understood
by the sight of, riding at anchor in New York
waters,
Efeht of the largest and finest
superdreadnought destroyers
technically known as battleships
some of them apparently five hundred feet
long, manned by a thousand men and fully
equipped with guns and War apparatus of
every description.
These big ships, are now greeting at
Spanish warship by reciprocal salutations of
national flags.
It is said that some of the ships we are
looking at cost twenty millions of dollars.
Ascertain how many destroyers and
submarines the United States Government
has built and give Secretary of Navy Daniels
credit instead of criticism for having done
his best to put the United States in fighting
trim against the world's enemy.
No matter what the cost, we could not
afford to lose, whatever the cost might be.
Let us play the game fairly between man
and man.
