PARIS, Sept. 16.-At least 100

He listed the huge unemployment
of workers in this country, stagnant
business, underpaid agriculture and
gigantic bureaucracy in government
as the real threats to American
democracy
There is nothing in a foreign
war" the Senator said, which
either relieves us of our domestic
obligation or requires that we shall
withhold the full force of con-
structive campaign in behalf of the
general welfare"
No Thought of FiIibuster.
Senator Clark. in his statement,
insisted there had been no thought
Of "fllibuster" on the part of the
Senators who have opposed the
"emasculation and perversion of the
whole neutrality policy"
THE suggestions of filibuster, -
he said, have been put out in in
spired articles from Washington
and Hyde Park designed to promote
gag rule and stifie free and fair
discussion of perhaps the most i'm
portant question of public policy
which has confronted Congress
since that tragic day in 1917 when
the decision was made to throw
the United States into the World
War.
we are now to determine
whether or not we have learned
anything from that awful expe-
rience by deciding whether by re-
pealing the arms embargo we shall
again deliberately set our feet on
the path which inevitably leads to
war"
/ Senator Clark said he thought
events had demonstrated the wis
dom Of the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committees majority vote
last session to postpone action on
neutrality legislation. The Mis-
sourian made the motion for delay
which was adopted by a 12-to-1l
vote.
Senator Clark said opponents of
the Presidents program were in
sulationists'' against war rather than
'isolationists.
In recent months" he said, the
term isolationists has been applied
as term of opprobrium to those of
us who adhere to the teachings of
the fathers Of this Renuhlic tho
we should stay at home and attend
to our own business. We are but
humble followers of the leaders
whose teaching made this country
great.
According to some current defini-
tions George Washington was an
isolationist, Jefferson was an isola-
zionist, the Adamses. and Madison
and jackson and Lincoln were all
isolationists. We are proud to be
their followers. BY the same defini-

Oskar, jr., of Prussia-was listed to.

Hohenzollern victim Of the German
Polish war.
The family received word yester-
day that Oskar fell honorably some
where in Poland" while leading an
attack by his company. A lieutenant
Oskar was "a years old. He was q
member of the 51st Infantry Regi-
ment.
Oskar's mother, the former Coun-
tess Ina Bassewitz, is seriously ill in
a hospital in Mecklenburg. His
father, Prince Oskar, the fifth son
of the former Kaiser, is in charge OF
a reserve regiment with the rank
of colonel.

Burchard, is member Of the 9th

If democracy is to be saved" he
continued, 1T needs to be saved
not only from alien Naziism and
alien Communism abroad, but also
and equally from New Deal disas-
tiers and insolvency at home"
He called for the election in 1910
of an "all-American administration
and said the immediate problem is
an "all-American pursuit of peace
on an all-American program that
shall make the most of two great
oceans, which, though ominously
fore-shortened, still relatively insu-
late our shores.
! Taking up first the external
challenge" Senator Vandenberg
! continued:
1T is not our war. 1t need not
it should not-become our war. We
all have our inevitable sympathies
and prejudices-our outraged sensi-
bilities. But our paramount feelings
and our paramount obligations are
that America snail stay at peace"
He pointed out, as he did in ar
interview in Washington earlier in
the week, that Congress had passed
the Neutrality Act almost unani-
mously in 1887 and the President
had approved it and the country ap.
plauded.
1T was not a Republican code,
he said 1T was not a Democratic
code. 1t was an American code. In.
Guiding its arms embargo, it repre-.
sented our best thought as to wha
would be best for America in the
event of a foreign war.
In my view. it is not neutrality
for us to change that code today tx
make it fit some favored belligerent
no matter what our sympathies. Ir
my view, that is unneutrality. 1t i.

not believe there can be any such
middle ground. For example, I de
not believe America can be an arsen.

THE external challenge calls fol
all possible American unity, and
shall contribute to it so far as tn,
White House will permit. But i
does not require any of us to sur
render our deep convictions as t,
how best keep America at honorabl,
peace. To do that would be merel,
to bring the totalitarian curse to oul

not require us to to forget or ignor,
