while the vote has not been taken
we know the decision-it is WAR" he
shouted.
AS the Senator sat down there was
profound stir in the galleries.
Senator Swanson, OF Virginia, then
began his address.
The issue is not war or peace
said Senator Swanson, war has al
ready been wantonly and lawlessly
prosecuted against us. The question
is whether we shall accept war or
cowardly and abiect submission.
THE violation OF our neutrality by
high German officials in this country
was detailed.
For several years we have known
OF German activities in Mexico preiu-
dicial TO our interests and seeking to
embroi us with that country. We
have long suspected a disposition on
the part of the German government
to dispute with us the Monroe Doc
trine and to seek to extend TO the
western hemisphere her territorial
spoliations"
A blow at the pacfi.sts was struck
/ by Swanson
They would place upon this nation
the shame of still greater submission, -
| he said
"Sirs, in long national life the
pathway OF peace is the pathway of
firmness, courage and resolution. "

sight are wise counsellors ever to be
listened to and followed but coward

versary that ever purred their whis-
] perings into the national cars. Sirs.

Secretary OF State We should defend

THE President OF the United States
appeals to Congress TO give him the
authority anG the means efficiently
TO do this. Mr.. President, the procla-
nation of Germany issued on the
3lst day Of January 1917, is not only
opposed TO every principle of inter-
national law and the dictates Of hui
manity. but il is in direct contraven-
ton of many assurances given to us
during the tendency OF this world
wide war. and also of her solemn
treaty obligations
Warfare Already On.
After reviewing at length the sink
ing of American ships and Outrages
against our citizens and commerce,
Swanson said:
These repeated acts constitute
warfare in its worst and most de-
spicable form. What else can Ger
many do to wage war against us,
with her submarines 10 attack our
ships and commerce and assault our
flag?
She has already invited Mexico and
Japan to join in warfare against us.
How much further must she go in or
