'If war and the preparations for war are to continue the chief business of national govern ments we can expect development of socialism and bolshevsm in the United States. Nor will it be confined to ora tions on soap boxes in the public streets of our great cities. but it will appear here in Congress-, in the House of Rep resentatives and the Senate.

Senator Hitchcock answered in de- tail the recent criticisms of Senators Borah and Cummins of Iowa. republic ans and Reed of Missouri democrat He said it was not true that league plans would destroy the Monroe doc Urine or depart from Washington's for eign policy, and like President Will son. he took the position the world powers would add to the Monroe doc- trine's guarantee.
 Pointing out that the league charter was tentative and still subject to amendment, MT. Hitchcock praised the plan for an executive council confer ring permanent powers upon the five principal nations In the attacks on the league he said opponents apparent ly had considered every suggestion of it's control except that it might be controlled by the great self governing democracies of the world that estab lished it.
 'sTo my mind,' he said, the execu' tive council is an ingenious, just and effective method of placing control in the five great nations which have suc- cessfully fought this war the perma- nent direction of the league"
 The disarmament provision, Senator Hitchcock said. did not arbitrarily fix the limit of armament, but was merely advisory. The argun ent that nations
 in agreeing to arbitra tion submit their life to the league, he declared, was absurd when the league guaranteed political independence and territorial integrity to every member.

STRENGTHENS DOCTRINE

In discussing the Monroe doctrine, Senator Hitchcock said
 Instead of being compelled to defend
 the western hemisphere alone, we
 would have the sympathy and help of
 the league of nations in carrying out the spirit of it's organization. We have been told that this is one
 of those entangling alliances against which Washington warned us. I deny it"
 He pictured Washington writing his farewell address by candle light and added: If Washington were living foday he would press an electric button. summon a stenographer, and in the blaze of cleo tric lights, dictate message urging the American people to unite with other great nations to end wars and es- tablish perpetual peace of justice and
 good will He would adapt himself to | new conditions"
 To the suggestion that Japan might impose the immigration question on l America, the senator said Japanese ef forts for race equality declarations at Paris already had failed and that con | fronted in the league by seven great
 Caucasian races Japan could not even I get a hearing if she attempted to bring
 up the immigration question. /, "Our experiences in the war from which we are just emerging" said the senator | in his argument upon the necessity for
 a league, have convinced us that we
 are part of the world and that when
 ever the world becomes convulsed with
 war in the future we are likely to be-
 come involved in it"
 l Citing enormous cost and losses of the present war. he said:
 | 'The confidence of men in government | has been shaken and will never be re- stored until governments devise some
 way to end these wars. If we fail
 to adopt an internationalism of govern
 ments that will unite to end wars we
 shall be face to face with the interna- tionalism of the individual" /! Referring to the trend toward social
 istic leaders and ideas, Senator Hitch
 cock said Russia was communistic, that
 France and Italy were dominated by the socialist leaders, and socialist principles
 were growing in England and Germany.
