Of the war We can have cash-and-
carry for all other commodities and
also maintain the arms embargo. But
without the arms embargo, CASH
and-carry is very feeble safeguard
against our involvement in war. We
can, and should, prohibit American
citizens from travelling on ships of
warning nations. In short, every safe
guard against incidents which might
be the cause Of our being drawn into
war IN the bill pending before the
Congress, can, and should, be passed.
And at the same time we can keep
the embargo against the sale Of arms,
ammunition and implements of war
which is now in full force and effect.
The repeal of the arms embargo
will not only be an unneutral act
but 1t will also result in a tre-
mendous expansion of our munitions
industry. The present plant capacity
OF this industry Is backlogged with
orders from our own national defense
program. If Great Britain and
France can buy arms, ammunitions
and implements of war here, it must
be either at the cost of setting aside
our own rearmament program or
hundreds Of millions of dollars must
be Immediately invested in new
plant capacity. This will result in
a bulging out of our economy to
meet the wartime demand. This
will, IN turn, provide great induce
ments for the repeal of the johnson
Act once the purchasers are out of
cash. Then loans will be floated and
we will find ourselves right where
we were in 1916 and 1917.
What Wilson's Biographer Said.
Let me quote from Ray Stannard
Baker, President Wilson'S official
biographer, who certainly is not
biased against him:
" - by the end of the year 1914
the traf1ic in war materials with the
allies had become deeply entrenched
In Americas economic organizat ton"
Now mark these words:

cess Of one group Of warning nations.
Our patriotic course is clear. We
should keep the embargo on arms
and enact all the other features of
the pending bill designed to reduce
incidents likely to lead to war. We
should limit the trade in other COM
modities to a strict caSh-and carry
basis, not credit and carry. We must
restrict this trade SO as to protect
our resource base and not permit an
uncontrolled wartime commerce to
develop which will help to drag us
into war in Europe or in the Far
East.
We should concentrate on making
democracy work at home and thus

serve our way Of life. We have q

We not only need to keep the

omy from becoming top-heavy; but
we should amend the cash and carry
proposals now pending in the Senate
to limit the war trade in other COM
modities, and thus prevent it from

BROWN BOMBER AGAIN TOPS
TOPS FISTlC RACKET

Joe Louis, present worlds heavy
weight champion, who once worked as
a laborer on the assembly line at
Ford's River Rouge Plant in Detroit,
blasted his way into fistic prominence
with pair of dynamic, bomblasting
pair of mitts hosting him meteori-
cally to the worlds heavyweight title,
again CLEANS forth as the king of the
games he rules-boXing. The Brown
Bomber continued to show his supre-
macy in the fistic realm, dealing out
more that he received in the way of
bruising as he defeated four ambitious
title aspirants, establishing himself
beyond a shodaw of doubt as one of
the greatest heavyweight champions
the ring has ever known, and placed
himself third to Jack Dempsey and
Gene Tunney in earning capacity.
Louis won the Ring Magazines annual
award as "The fighter of the year"
for the fourth time in the last five
years.
Henry Armstrong was outstanding
for activity and consistency. "Ham-
merin' Hank" waded through 1889 in
his usual razzle-dazzle fashion, with
the exception of the Ambers robbery"
a skirmish from which the former
emerged minus his lightweight title,
which had too many unfair tactics into
it thus causing plenty of controversy
along fistic row. Aside from that,
Henry had remarkable year.
After the battle smoke had been
cleared from the pugilistic battle
ground, the cool, calculating, merci-
less, hard-punching Joe Louis stood
out as the games leading figure. He
knocked out, in order, John Henry
Lewis, Jack Roper, Tony Galento and
Bob Pastor. The Bomber, in diligent
fashion, disposed of the four challen-
gers in less than seventeen completed
rounds, or exactly 46 minutes, Sc sec

being no room for Him at the inn. He
is the Shiloh of Genesis, the First and

the Valley and the Everlasting Rock.
He is the Door through which all
may enter, if Heaven we are to gain.
The angels called His Emanuel for
He came to save His people from their
sins. Isaih knew Him as both creature
and creator, knew Him as God and

mercy laid down His life for us, and
with overwhelming love and power
went back and picked it up.
This is He that is wonderful" re-

ing sight to the blind, hearing to the
deaf, speech to the dumb, food to the
hungry, shelter to the homeless, and
everlasting life to all that are willing
to step out of sin and live eternally in
confounding the learned
men with wisdom, constantly teaching
not only the way through life, but the
way from death to an everlasting life.
This is He that is the Mighty God
being equal with the Father and being
possessed of all His eternal attributes
and is given the command to reign
forever and ever.
This is the Everlasting Father whose
presence and word shall still exist
though Heaven and earth may pass
away.
This is the "Prince of Peace" bur

Stiller of the waves. The very winds
change their course at His presence.
This is the light that penetrates the
darkness, who lightens up the way
from earth to Heaven; this is the solu-
ton to every problem. This is the
Doctor for every disease, the Seed of

the Founder of Christianity. This is
the Prophet for every occurrence. This

have already done so. Many Of these

by their perGicious activities placed
the entire structure of our rights in
