THE DAILY HANN 7 Eli, ORSEINOAS'aLE. INDIANA, MONDAY, OCTOBER 21, ml.

Radio .Address By FDR Tonight WASHINGTON, Oct. 27—(UP)— President Rcosevelt sounded the keynote for observance of Navy Day today with a call for “total defense" and “willing sacrifice'’ so that the Uni'ed States can halt the "forces of evil” and remain united and unconquerable. In a letter to Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox urging expansion of the traditional 20-year-oXd salute to the Navy to “Navy and total defense day." the President set the stage for his nationwide radio broadcast tonight at 10 p. m., EST., over all major networks. Mr. Roosevelt spent the weekend drafting his a Idress 'which will be his first important one since Sept. 11 when he order the Navy to "shoot on s ght” any Axis raiders in American defense waters. In ’he midst of the greatest rearmament program in history and of efforts to build a two-ocean floet dimensions hitherto unheard of, the nation celebrated Navy Day. There were concerts, maneuvers and a series of speeches extolling the picgress in levelopment of seapower. Alrea ly the navy has 346 warships built and another 345 on the way.

Knox predicted that the job would be done considerably ahead of the 1946 schedsle. Mr. Roosevelt said in his letter to Knox that the change from "Navy Day" to "Navy and total defense day" would be clear to all "rightthinking Americans"; that it implied no change in spirit from past anniversaries which also coincides with the birthday of Theodo^ Roosevelt.

The Eskimos are free from contagious iiseases, but do experience the daily langers of wild animals, temperatur■s that range as low as 75 degrees below zero and the always present oroblem of securing food.

A BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TODAY Don’t worship a golden calf of wealth, material comfort, social prominence. All this surely turns to ashes in the end. It makes a poor drink:( And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in fire, and ground it to powder, and strewed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink it.— Ex. 32:20.
