EARLY WAR WITH
JAPAN PREDICTED
REPRESENTATIVE HOBSON SAYS
CONFLICT WILL FIND US
UNPREPARED.
Ala bama Congressman Takes a Very
Pessimistic View of Our Naval
and Military Affairs.

Washington, d. C.-Declaring that
the japanese are now hard up be-
cause that government already has
financed it's next war, Representa-
tive Hobson drew a gloomy view OF
the condition of the United States
in case of war. He said the United
States government was in such a
state of unreadiness that it would
have to fight the equivalent of three
wars before really beginning war on
a prepared basis.
Mr.. Hobson predicted that the
Panama canal would never be used by
this government in war time, because
it would either not be completed Or
adequate means would be found to
prevent its use instantly upon a dec
laration of war.
He pictured Japanese occupancy
of the Philippines, Hawaii, Guam,
Samoa, Aleuthian Islands, Alaska,
Puget Sound and other parts of the
United States and it's possessions.
you can count on the fingers of
your two hands," Mr.. Hobson said,
"the number of months before the
United States will have a war on its
hands. This nation is not going to
prepare and the day is coming when
it will be struck by a nation that is
prepared"
"Is war a visible certainty" asked
Representative Driscoll of New York.
Yes, and not very far off, said
Mr.. Hobson. Whether we are struck
from the side of the Atlantic ocean
or from the Pacific We are going to
find ourselves at a remarkably early
stage of the war absolutely helpless" !"
