Head Sees Danger
for Democracies
POINTS TO GROWTH OF
DICTATORS' STRENGTH
BY JOE ALEX MORRIS
(Copyright, 1887

WASHINGTON, Feb. 8. CUP
Senator Key Pittman 3D., Nev.)
chairman Of the senate foreign re-
lations committee and, therefore,
an authoritative voice on foreign
affairs, warned today that continu-
alton of the present trend in world
affairs will Inevitably result in
war" in which democracies will be
at disadvantage.
Unless q change can be brought
about. he said, 1t is the duty OF
the United States to prepare its
defenses without regard to COST
In an unusually frank discus
sion of current international con-
flicts and crises, Pittman contrast
ed the policies of the democratic
nations as represented by the Uni
ted States, France and Great Bri-
tain with the dictatorial govern
ments of Japan, Italy and Ger
many. -,
"World conditions" he said,
"are getting progressively worse
much worse. -.
"The so-called authoritarian gov
ernments have been consolidating
and STRENGTHENING wal 'instrumen
talities and the so-called demo-
cratic governments have. been pro-
gressively retreating with every
Indication of pacific fear and mill
tary retreating.
dThe continuation of such
courses will inevitably. result in
continued conquests and ultimate
war with the so-ealled democracies
at q disadvantage"
Pittnian doubted whether Japan
would submit q direct answer to
inquiries about reported cOnstruc-
ton Of super-dreadnaughts. He
charged that world conditions have
grown worse sine Japanese mill
tary clique seized control, ruling
through arbitrary power and vio-
lence." ,..-. -.
Pittman's remarks punctuated a
congressional storm over foreign
policy and naval building issues as
illustrated by debate over the ad-
ministration's $800,000,000 war
shin program and a resolution by
Senator Hiram johnson (R., Cali
calling upon Secretary of State
Cordell Hull to reveal whether
this nation has any secret alliances
or agreements.
Senator Gerald P. Nye (R., N
d. also introduced resolution
insisting that Hull determine upon
what authority an article was writ
ten for an Australian paper pur,
porting to reveal that the United
States had supplied the British
admiralty with information con-
corning japanese Notifications
The article declared, according TO
Nye, that the information was OBJ
tanned by u. s. naval observers
during their search for Amelia

man said they would fight to turn
the Johnson resolution over to the
foreign relations committee de-
spite Johnson's protest. They were
expected to be successful.
