NYE ADVOCATES US,
QUIT ARMING WORLD
Senator in Talk to G. W. U. Forum
Charges Du Pont Sold Powder
Formula to Japan,

America should get out of the busi-
ness of arming the rest of the world,
Senator Gerald Nye of North Dakota
told the George Washington Univer-
sity freshman forum last night in an
address on "Peace-Which Way?'
Citing cases in which private firms
have sold munitions to warning coun-
tries, the Senator charged the E. I.
du Pont de Nemours Co. with selling
powder formula to Japan in 1882
for 100000. He advocated Govern
ment control of munitions and a con-
stitutional amendment to make decla-
ration of war subject to national ref
erendum.
Senator Nye drew picture of young
Americans marching off to war to be
killed with shrapnel made from the
scrap iron sold by America to foreign
nations.
Representative Voorhis of Cali
fornia told the group that unless Amer
lea solves the problem of unemploy-
ment. the chances of peace being
maintained are slight
America must take steps, he said,
to raise the consumption powers of
the people to a point commensurate
with the power to produce if the
forces that may drive the country into
war are to be resisted.
The speakers were introduced by
Michael McKeel of the Freshman Club.
