American manufacturers seeking to
take advantage of the European war
to increase their business was made by
| Representative Campbell. of Kansas.
| last night at the seventh annual din
ner of the Trowel Club Of the Depart

| it is Americans who are making the
grasping attempts to steal the trade
of nations in the distress of war"
Representative Campbelrs remarks
| were Interpreted as an attack in in
nuendo on the shipping interests and
the administration shipping bill. THE
United States is literally sitting on a
volcano" said Mr.. Campbell. though
| we may not realize it now" He en-
phasized the great need for the nation
to remain at peace and to keep a cool
| head in these dangerous days" He
said: Il would not allow commerce to
warp my sense of proportions at this
! time. If / alone had the say, the
blood of the son of no American
mother and the blood of the husband
of no American woman would be
spilled to extend the business interests
of the exporters of the United States
now or at any time in the next 1000
years"
