Shall we leave this Elysium Of happy
isolation to risk the fate of shat
tered existence under the assaults of
the offended nations revenging our
partiality to rivals and foes? Shall
we indulge the fatuous allurement Of
prated peace and mock friendships
OF secret enemy, to obey the deluded
persuasion that with the United States
entwined in the maze of world mur.
ders, all would surrender to our signal
and under our entrance a new i'm.
pulse Of love would flow universal?
Let no such deceiving credulity DOS
sess our now separate and sovereign
national Commonwealth. Let none of
our countrymen be so bold in their
seduced condolences as to persuade this
people to depart its faith and desert
It's path. Fixed in the devotion to
peace all nations, abiding in the
friendship Of the world on the basis
OF honor sanctif1ed in religion, this
United States stands at a distance
alone on the heights of acknowledged
eminence. We hold the hands of our
children to guide them through the
vale OF distractions, as we pray the
blessings Of heaven. Yet with all
we proclaim to the world: This Is
America"-and-
True to our colors, tho our shadows
grow dark
Wen direct our sails as before
And hold hard the rudder that gov
erns our bark
Nor ask how we look from the
Shore
thank you-I bid you goodnight.

LEWIS ADVOCATES
HAPPY ISOLATION
Radio Forum Speaker Points
to DangerAof Alliances
in Europe.

Senator Lewis of Illinois, the Demo-
cratic whip, last night urged continued
adherence by the United States to the
"elysium of happy isolation" His
speech. broadcast on coast-to-coast
network by the National Broadcasting
Co., was delivered in the National
Radio Forum arranged by The Star.
In his plea for aloofness from Euro
pean affairs, Lewis reminded his lis
teners of the great monetary debt still
owed this country by many continental
nations and drew this picture of the
benefits of staying at home:
I'VE are at peace with all the world
Were the United States to have Joined
with England in sanctions, there would
be for us at this time the enmity of
Italy, the suspicion and accusation of
France and the chill or hot temper
from Germany.
Did we ally with France, we would
have the enmity of the German people
and the hospitality of England And
were we to espouse with Germany, we
invite the antagonism of Russia
while to conjoin with Russia is to
arouse either Japan or Germany, or
perchance both, in union against us.
Lewis posed this question as pre-
liminary to sharpening his argument
for isolation:
Let us ask where is anything that
can be adopted as an inducement to
Americans to make any other move
of favor or benefit toward these debt
ors, whose treatment has Inundated

tation of friendship to all nations and
offers prayer for peace to all people.
No Profit in Choice.
We summon the witnessing man
kind to the vindication by events Of
the American nationalist policy. Re
fleet upon the situation:
We are at peace with all the world.
Were this United States to have Joined
with England in sanctions, there would
be for us at this time the enmity of
Italy, the suspicion and accusation Of
France and the chill or hot temper
France, we would have the enmity Of
the German people and the hostility
OF England. And were we to espouse
with Germany, we invite the antag-
onisms of Russia-while to conjoin
with Russia Is to arouse either Japan
or Germany, or perchance both, in
union against us.
To this add the thought Of how
our taking sides would bring disputes
and conflicts in our home places
among those who are the descendants
Of those lands in war, were we to
espouse one or more against opponents
in the others. We would be besieged
at our doors with enemies, where had
been patriots-devoted to our flag.
The United States, with the churn-
ing seas mounting between us as
though constructed by heaven as our
barrier and protection, our obligation
of interference with the affairs
Of European nations. standing forti-
fled by an adequate eNavy-constructed
only for the fullness of defense-and
an Army continued in colume to the
suficiency only of national police
to oppose invaders-affords the TRAN
gle of barricades as our sure safety.
BY these tokens we summon civiliza-
ton to witness how the gods of crea-
ton destined our situation as the
sure divine preservation of the Amer
ican.
Shall We Espouse Delusion?
BY this exhibit We commend you
to answer: Shall we forsake our
promontory of guardianship reaching
to the stars at eventide and gilded by

America before the world and discred-
tied their own honor before mankind?
Since such has been their treatment
in the past, what can be looked for
ward to for the future?"
Text Of Speech.
The text of Senator Lewis speech
follows:
For centuries up to 1920 the world
nations turned upon each other to
rend and destroy. This course Of de-
molishing civilization and devastating
mankind was the obedience to the
edicts Of secret treaties pledging de-
struction to any who became oppo-
nents to unknown DEGREES.
To abolish this execrable injustice,
our America, in the name Of liberty
and democracy, sacrificed her treasure
in billions Of money and sent her sons
to death in distant fields, buried in
hidden hills-all smitten by the ven-
geance of revenging war. This World
War commanded the toll Of four hun
dred billions of dollars In value Of
money and property, twelve million
lives sacrificed. Five million more
crippled, blinded, shrunken and with
cred to uselessness. destined to creep
and hobble through the world to the
hour of the final dipatch called death.
Then it was that civilization and
Christianity nodded new world COM
pact. This was to endow the order
of family Of nations, founded on faith
Of obligation and the declared love
of mankind. A generation is now new
born. The captains of the modern
formation revive and reinstate treaties
for death of nations and covenants
with the hell Of war.
New Destruction Being Born.
The old order resurrected is again
to establish the secret VOWS of some
part of mankind to desolate men and
demolish the structure of worlds. This
as penalty to such as do not yield
obedience to the despot or tyrant. To
achieve this purpose, armies and ma
vieS are anew constructed to quantity
and quality unparalleled in all expert
ence. To these are added engines and
Evening star., 1936-04-21

systems of heretofore unknown proc
ess of new annihilation.
Behold the panorama Of nations ar
rayed for action:
England tortures Italy to combat;
Italy cements France to alliance
this to assail the English contestants;
France knits new bonds with Russia,
to the purpose Of frustrating Ger
many. Germany prepares to shatter
France with aid of Austria and Italy.
In this melee of wrestling horrors,
there arises in the shadows Japan, the
new sovereign of Asia. This Japan
confronts Russia, commanding from
the Siberian slopes. China pits her
self against invaders and prepares to
slaughter wherever promiscuous and
mysterious destruction can give deliv-
erance.
"Peace Under Swords"
Truly, with the Oriental philoso-
pher, we must exclaim:
"Peace Is only under o canopy Of
sword!" while life now survives under
the swirling ships Of the air raining
down Argosies Of consuming flame"
To each of the death-dealing area
confronts the organization of leagues
of nations, combination Of masters,
compacts Of sanctions, and control by
committee of conquerors. These de-
vices through their directors summon
to the array the joint operation and
solicit participation of our United
States of America.
And here we PROFOUND the query:
On what basis of justice can these
historic nations command the partner
ship or adherence OF the United
States? We have it from the ancient
law, by the fruits Of tree, ye shall
know it," These great nations now
summoning us to bear responsibilities
with them received from us what ap-
proximates twenty billions Of Ameri-
can money.
Now for months upon months these
countries refuse to affirm the debt,
decline to pay the interest and openly
assert to the world that they have
stricken the obligation from what is
called their budgets. This open an
nouncement of reputation Of this debt
