The maintenance of a navy in time of peace is un-
worthy of the dignity of the Great Republic and of the
place she should aspire to among the nations, and to my
mind the hundreds of millions that during the last
twenty years we have spent upon our navy would have
been as truly wasted had they secured us good ships
But I do of the decadence in our ability to
build ships.
