Washington, Teb. iJ Respect for tne .uniform or the army, navy and marine corps, in an public places, iormea tne principal tonic of discus alon at the open session here to day of the Naval League of the United States, an organisation devoted to the interests of the navy, which met In second annual convention. Its mem berahlp numbers about t.OOO, com posed of 79 sections, distributed Over various parts of . the United States, and abroad. General Horace Porter, former ambassador to France, presi dent. - About 160 delegates, repre senting the various , section were in tendance. v , '.. The convention unanimously voted a recommendation that the governing board place the league on record as'l ravormg tne settlement of an inter national disputes by arbitration and also the astabllshment of a perma nent International congress. The convention took up the ques tion of the attitude displayed by the proprietors of certain public plaoes in discriminating the uniform of the army, the navy and the marine corps, and the following resolution then was adopted: "Resolved, that the Navy League of the United States Is In favor of the passage of a law by Congress which will enforce respect for the uniform of petty officers and enlisted men of the United States army, navy and marine corps at every time and place, and also the 'passage of laws by Legislatures of the various States making It a misdemeanor for any keeper of public house, restaurant, theatre or other place of entertain ment or amusement to discriminate against Its wearing such uniform." In the afternoon the delegates were received-by the President, who ad dressed them as follows: "I take a peculiar pleasure In greeting you here, because It is emi nently true In a democracy that what Is everyone's business Is apt to bo no one's, and you are here on every body's, business. There Is plenty of pressure of local Interests for public buildings; plenty of pressure for lo cap Improvement in the river and harbor bill; but there is no special Interest to be brought to bear on matters of great national concern pre-eminently the navy. Persons who regenerated In the hurly-burly of active political life most natujar ly tend to pay especial heed to the requests that are Insistent; and It be hooves our people to encourage pa triotic societies like this, which nhall be In.slstent upon the needs of Ameri ca as a whole. The Presdent and Congress both need to be reminded that it Is necessary for the sake of America to encourage the unbuilding and maintenance of the Cnited States Navy. I am happy to say that whereas lust year we failed to get a battleship, this year we have two. We have made good the Iosr we met with last yeur. Now, I ant nil of you In your respective homes, through the organs of public opinion, by your Influence on your represen tatives In every branch at Washing ton, to see that the needs of the navy are not forgotten In the fu ture. The navy has no one to sneak for It save those who speak for It because of their devotion to the honor und the Interest of the United States; and I ask that you und those like you make your voices heard for the general welfare amid the din of voices that speak only for special In terests." ni'XCOMBK TO VOTE ON BOND.
