G. W. Spoerry Decries Protests Made
Against Expense of National Defense
The protests against the heavy
expense of the present United
States defense facilities are not
founded on facts according to
Capt. G. W. Spoerry of the Uni
versity military department. At
the present time the United States
ranks tenth with the standing
armies of other great world pow
ers. Captain Spoerry emphatically
denies the statement of Dr. H. L.
Smith, former president of Wash
ington and Lee university.
Dr. Smith says, "The United
States today is the terror of the
world and the military successor
of the Germany of twenty-five
years ago. Now that we have a
president who is discouraging pre
parations for war, the rear ad
mirals and (he rest of the military
exponents come forward to declare
that he is 'abysmally ignorant'."
Captain Spoerry believes that a
person making such a statement
is either not acquainted with the
facts or is an ardent communist.
He states, "National protection is
as necessary as police protection.
The time has not yet come when
the police can be abandoned in a
city without almost every store re
porting a robbery the first day or

tection was eliminated, we should
