DARK AGES RETURN
is FEARED BY HULL
Barbarism Sure if Nations Per-
sist in Self Suficiency,' He
Tells Michigan Graduates.

By the Associated Press.
ANN ARBOR, Mich. June IA
return to the dark ages" of barbarism
and savagery was foreseen here today
by Secretary Hull If the nations of
the world persist in pursuing a policy
of elf-sufficiency."
Addressing the graduating class of
the University of Michigan, Hull said
there were but two alternatives:
"Either We go forward to other great
er achievements of material and spir-
jtual culture, with a concomitant
growth of every kind Of material and
spiritual interchange within each ma
ton and as between nations. or we
must recognize that our culture has
reached its apex and is entering into
definite decline and decay.
I'm the latter case-and in that
case only-every manner of relation
ship built up in preceding centuries
will become loosened and dissolved
and nations will again achieve self
sufdciency' - the self-sufhciency of
barbarism and savagery."
The Secretary of State asserted
that while the United States was
experiencing domestic economic re-
covery, "the situation in the interna-
tional field is still deteriorating."
He said he was not one who thought
a new world war inevitable, nor did
he believe major war abroad would
involve this country. Nevertheless, he
said ANY clash abroad would at best
so dislocate the slow progress of re-
covery here that we could not in the
long run avoid its disastrous effects"
