KANSAS CITY, OCT. 29.

ED STATES NAVY, IN HIS NAVY DAY SPEECH URGED A REALISTIC, PRACTICABLE REDUCTION "IN THE PRESENT UNITED STATES NAVY TO POST- WAR SIZE, BUT URGED THE RETENTION OF A STRONG NAVY TO UPHOLD THE NATIONAL POLI- CIES. REFERRING TO THE ATOMIC BOMB HE ASSERTED: THE STATEMENT THAT OUR PRESENT MILITARY FORCES WILL BE SCRAPPED IN THE NEXT TEN YEARS CAN BE SAID TO STEM FROM A "BUCK ROGERS" TYPE OF PREDICTION.

"The new weapon will modify strategy tactics but will not change the fundamental pria- ciple of warfare and as long as that holds there will be need for a navy.”

The new weapon will not "in the least abolish the navy's prime duty to carry war over-| Heas to the enemy. It is our ex- pectation to prevent the pos- sibility of war ever renching this nation on its own shores."

The Admiral Hated the fol- lowing requirements ag the United States minimum post- war naval strength:
