Show Congress is reducing the army and navy to mere skeletons skele-tons to shadows without sub stance. We see no conclusive evidence evi-dence of other nations doing the same. In fact, we have strong suspicions that if the truth were known conditions would be found to be quite the reverse. A clog without teeth can growl and snarl, but it is easily licked. A country without an army or navy can protest, but it can not repel an invader with its tongue or with its fists. We need no weapon of offense, of-fense, but is it wise to destroy entirely our means of defense? |
