Me. Edwin Dzuby. U.S. Seare tary of the Navy, speaking to American basiness maa at Yoto- hama, declared that next to the navy the mercantile marine was the most important in the defence of the country,

Mr. Denby asid :-"Sometimes it is said that trada ia the most frequest cause of war I cannot believe that bouest commerce is the mother of so atrocious al thing as war.

Speakingasthe [head of the Navy, I may say to you that next only to the Navy in the merchant marine of the United States important to the defence of our country.
