j. s. NAVY LEAGUE
FAV0RS NATIONAL
DEFENSE COUNCIL
Perry Belmont Thinks II Unfair
to Thrust Problem of Pre-
paredness on Congress.

Washington, April 11.-Threc funda-
mental steps which he declares were
essential to an adequate American naval
and military policy We're outlined here
to-day TO the annual convention of the
Navy League of the United states by
it's chairman, Perry Belmont They
were creation of council of national
defense, abolition of the volunteer sys-
TEN and issuance of national defense
bonds.
Other speakers made pleas for naval
preparedness and for private manufac-
ture of war munitions.
Mr.. Belmont contended 1t was unfair
to Congress to thrust on It the problem
of defense without a commission to
gather information necessary for formu-
latlon of legislation. The present vol
unteer system, he said. would interfere
in time of war with industry by drawing
indscriminately from all trades and cal
lings He argued that defense bonds
should be issued and so extended that
no one generation would have to bear
the whole burden.
Continued unrestricted sale Of war mu-
nitions to bellirercnts and private man
ufacture of munitions for American
needs We're urged by Charles Noble
Gregory, dean of George Washington
Law school
1.-THE ability Of n peaceful commercial
State to exchange freely her wealth fol
war supplies in the worlds market i,
her one great defense and her one chief
bulwark," he said. "Ccrtainly the causes
OF peace cannot be served by off"rint
to peaceful and prosperous nations like
orr own the dilemma of destruction ol
the adoption Of the extremes Of mill
tariSm."
