Washington, Fob. 3.?The march of
aggressors, set under way when Japan
"took" Manchuria back In 1931
over the protest of the I'nited States,
continues as the Insurgents in Spain,
aided by Germany and Italy, put the
Loyalist government to flight.
Four Republican governments now
have bowed to the dictators In a per-1
iod of twelve months. Austria bowed
first, then Czechoslovakia. The government
of China was driven from pillar
to post by tho Japanese. Republican
Spain today finds Its government
driven from Barcelona and a
Fascist victory Imminent.
Let us hero note, though, thp.1 socalled
Republican Spain is not our
kind of a Republic nor does democracy
there measure lip to the standard
set by American citizens. It is
openly charged upon the good grounds
that the Communists actually control
the government and that, should the
loyalist cause prevail, it would ineun
the establishment of another communistic
state like Russia. While hating
fascism, many thinking Americans
prefer that form of "ism" to Communism
with its avowed purpose to destroy
the influences of tho Bible ant!
the belief In the existence of a Supreme
Being
The American Department of State
little conceals its apprehension over
the primped that the ideas that have
"been sweeping Europe and Asia will
penetrate to Ix-itin America. This apprehension
is increased with conditions
in Spain, mother country to
most uf Latin America. Already the
Fascist nations are offering a market
fur raw materials of Latin American
nations that the I'nited States?poss<
ssod of an over-abundance Itself?
cannot buy.
Experiences of the last war convinced
the American people that this
nation could better serif its own citizen
and the general welfare of the
world l?> staling dear of European
entanglements and future European

When Italy "took" Ethiopia, the
United States invoked the neutrality (
act, barring munitions sales to Italy,
as well as to Ethiopia.
By the time aggressor nations were ,
ready to aid civil war in Spain the |
United States was heavily sold on j
neutrality and congress' overwhelming
vote barred trade in munitions j
both with the Insurgents and the Republican
government. Great Britain j
and Prance did the same, leaving the j

Thon, when Japan sot out to "take"
China without the formality of a declaration
of war the United States was
. so uncertain about neutrality that the '
j neutrality law was not invoked to bar '
! munition's sales to either the Japan- '
ese or Chinese. Since Japan controls '
j the seas and the avenues of trade in i
China, she freely purchased the es- I
sentlai materials needed by her. I
I Today tho United States government t
, is uncertain about what to do with
' its neutrality law. The State Depart'
nient seems now to favor a policy of
: designating aggressor nations and 1 in-j
j ing up on the other side. Such a '
1 policy means war and wo should know
It. Another World war can only re!
suit 111 the establishment of more to- <

know that none of the factions In i

This should apply with especial

patient and tolerant relative to customes,
language and belief, but iti
j must be clearly understood that on
the question of loyalty to tho laws,
tho Constitution and the ideals of
America, wo will not brook any divided
loyalty or any subservient practices.
Our doors are still open to a limited
degree to the oppressed of other

our way of life and leaving behind
