SENATOR WILLIS
urges DOCTRINE
OF WASHINGTON

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, Feb. % tsgz-
Declaring flatly against international
mindednesS in the shaping OF
American foreign policies, Senator
Willis addressed an audience OF fell
low Ohioans tonight for the first
time since battle lines were drawn
between him and Secretary Hoover
for republican delegates from this
state to the Kansas City convention.
In his prepared speech he made no
direct reference to the commerce
secretary.
The Ohioan, speaking al an Amer
ican legion Washington'S birthday
celebration, reviewed his previously
announced stand against foreign
alliances, against further reduction or
cancellation OF foreign debts and for
law observance. He emphasized espe-
cially the view that George Washing
ton was right in warning against the
insidious wiles OF foreign influence" !"
Recalling 1918, Willis SAID that
many powerful leaders urged at that
time that immediate entrance into
the league of nations without reser-
vation should be had" and continued
1T is most fortunate that advice was
not followed and it would be unsafe
to turn the destinies OF the country
into the hands of those who gave
such advice and entertained such
IDEAS"
He cited the foreign debt settle
ment terms as a demonstration of
the unselfish attitude OF the American
1OnA IL GGl,.o 1..,
gone as far as we shall go and as
far as we ought to CO.. The clamor
for modification of the debt settle
ments and in some instances for
final cancellation OF the debt, will not
be favoraply received by the American
people. These debts are just and
honest. Settlements made are more
than generous. Those VINO seek to
curry favor in foreign quarters by
insisting on cancellation of the debt
will be disappointed in their pan
eff it is desired to encourage the
building OF ornaments and the de-
velopment of a war like spirit in
Europe, no better way could be found
to do it than to let Europe under
stand that she may go on and spend
her substance in war preparations
with the understanding that when
war comes and debts are incurred,
these debts will be cancelled. Further
reduction of the foreign debt or
cancellation OF it would be a crime
against the American taxpayer, not
to be tolerated.
Senator Willis called Ior 'loyal
American mindedness" in American
foreign policy, tempered with a dis
position to be helpful and merciful
to all foreign nations SO far as this
can be consistent with justice to our
own people"

licked to a. fi.azzle or worse, because
Anderscn's edict is final.
The cause of the ultimaIum was the

jazz music. When that came to
Anderson's ears he took up the
cudgcls OF defense OF his widely
known son-il-law and proceeded 10
get himself into print by way of an
interview Here's the way he attacks
the matter, making it something OF
a confession as well as a proclanla-
ton OF his conversion to the classics
in music and how he was converted
and led out OF the swamps OF the
common in musical rhythm up on to
the plains OF the best there is in
music by fiddler, as told in a
Yuma interview:
Deems is the finest son-of-a-gun
I've ever called a son-in-laW."
And with that, Bob Anderson,
Yulna's oldtime sheriff and "two-gun-
man" declared war on the gang
berating the New York critic for
advocating classical music against
jazz.
"I want to tell you fellows how
/ got converted to this mere classic
stuff" his voice drowned out the
rumble of clanking china and the
drone of other voices. Il want you

stopped by a bullet from a s-x-gun.
"Well, this here Vinegar Bill intro
duced me one day to the COWBOY
fiddler, Hartman, in the days before
Hartman became the famous v1rtuoSo.
