“MYSTERIOUS DR. SATAN”"—
Senator George, on the senate floor
said:
“I profoundly hope that this coun-
tp' will not become an active parti
cipant in the present war or in any
war. I have not yet accepted the fa
talistic doctrine that our actual mili
tary or naval participation is inevi
table.”
In the house, Representativa Wood-
rum said:
“There is nothing in the picture
today which by the slightest imagi
nation should cause Americans to
consider seriously a declaratum of
war or a declaration suggesting we
send forces abroad. The idea of this
country going, off now. and trsring to
settle the conflicting emotions and
ideologies of Europe td me Is ridicu
lous even if we were prepared to do
so, which we are not.”
The r^nt talk of Herbert Hoover,]
in which he strongly oppose^ji our en-1
trance into the war, partict^ly be
cause we would be allied with Rus-i
sia, and becaxise we are not prepared
for war, has had considerable influ
ence over admirers of the former
president.
Although the administration’s po
sition is not clear, it is still felt by
many that the president Vouki not
ask for war white there is such a
lack of unity on the subject among
the people, as there is today.
Meanwhile, in a voluminous re
port, the house military committee
asserted that we are faced with a
serious lack of necessafy materials
and that airplane production, in par-1
ticular, is Being delayed at a result.
The committee blamed confusion
caused by “too many boarfls” and the <
“lack of a responsible tiead” for our
present difficulties.
To analyze the situation thorough
ly, the government has begun a.
study of defense production which
will not only determine why certain
I lines of industry, are not prodecing
^ faster, but will also analyse the set-
