"For the protection of our coast we need fortifications, not merely to pro tect the salient points of our possess sions, but so that the navy can be fool-loose. A year ago, at the time it was announced that the fleet was to go abroad, there was a certain number of newspapers, especially in my own cityof New York, that rais ed a clamorous protest against it.

"We .have. taken the . Philippines, .but if we' had. not taken them, not particle, of difference would be made as" regards the seeds of onr naval pol icies.
