American System
Threatened by War,
Joseph Davies Says
HvII's Aide Worms Of
Effects Of Nuzi Victory
In Wisconsin Talk

Continued existence Of the Amer
ican individualistic system might be
threatened by indirect effects of the
European war, Joseph E. Davies,
special assistant to the Secretary Of
State, warned last night. ~
Even though no foreign military
plane, warship or soldier ever touches
our shores, the forces which this
struggle has unleashed seem sure to
affect us vitality" MIR. Davies said in
an address at the University Of Wis
consin, the text Of which was made
available at the State Department.
He did not mention Germany by
name, but indicated the destructive
effects Of possible German victory
on this country by saying this coun-
trys system Of trade was challenged
by a system OF barter and ex-
change" involving "the highly con-
trolled and restricted barter Of COM
modities induced by necessity, force
or fear"
Fate Of Gold.
Pointing out that war costs might
eventually denude Europe of gold,
he said "such situation might in
volve serious dependence OF the
Americas upon European control" by
forcing this country to trade on
barter terms or not at all.
European markets for our manu-
featured goods may be lost" he
added. South American and other
markets now friendly to us might
be closed by preferential barter, and
it Is entirely possible that we might
be faced with a financial and in
dustrial crisis compared with which
the 1880 depression would rank as
a period of prosperity.
These things do not say will
happen. 1t is, nevertheless, prudent
and wise, is it not, that we should
appreciate and foresee the forces
now existing in the world which
affect us, the consequences of which
we and our children might have to
confront.
Urges Thought on Subject.
"The liberal thought Of the world
cleaves to the hope that following
this terrible military destruction in
Europe America will still have the
strength and power to help recreate
our civilization and heal a stricken
world. That hope we believe will
be fulfilled. To safeguard its fulfill
ment, however, we should think the
matter through and envisage poten-
tialities of the situation. We should
not overlook the possibility that
these high hopes might be thwarted
by the fact that we might be rele-
gated to the position Of a minority
stockholder in going world concern
In which we would have little to
say"

construction Of new homes IN rural
communities.
He said the chief problem was to
create an interest on the part Of
the building industry in the small
town market.
Another report, by the Bureau Of
Labor Statistics, said almost one

ers were home owners. Home own
ership, this report said, was most
often reported outside the largest
cities.
The bureau estimated that one out

Britons Told to Prepare
To Hulve Butter Rution
BY the Associatsd Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, May 6.-Because Of the

Butter first was rationed at 4
ounces weekly beginning January

to ounces weekly on March Is.
Lord Woolton warned that the

America Begins Paying
For National Defense

Up to 100 gallons of liquor and all
beer in the hands of retailer are
exempt from the floor tax. but the
half-cent must be paid on every
package of cigarettes.
No Evasion.
While the beer tax is not imposed
on stocks of Il retailer. it must be paid
by wholesalers and brewers on all
their stocks. Wholesale liquor dealers
are not granted the l00-gallon cX-
emption.
Congress levied these taxes so that
merchants who bought up supplies in
anticipation of the increase would
have to pay just the same. The
treasury expects Ia collect $4,000
600 from the floor tax on cigarettes
and Sl9.600.000 from that on liquor
and beer.
LevicS on other products may not
affect the consumer until existing
stocks are sold. but movie patrons
will pay the new taxes Immediately.

proposal of perfect bonanza to

What's Herr Hitler got TO offer

Nothing but some sort Of doubt

Maybe few dictatorial addicts,
like Gctulio Vargas, prefer totali-

They want 4 81 ,000,000.000 boom,

get out of Herr Hitler or Signor Mus
solini.
Germany and Italy have some
colonies Of their own countrymen IN
Latin America, 10 be sure. On sen
timcntal grounds possibly a few Of
these colonists will incline bit Nazi-
istically or Fascist-ically. But it will
take lot of sympathy of that sort
to offset the substantial benefits en-
bodied in Secretary Hull's Pam
American scheme.
In short. Secretary HulrS plan
isn't based on any sort of interna-
tional political preferences. He gam
bles on a general recognition Of mu-
tual selr-interest. 1t may prove a
good deal more cogent than any SON.

But essentially what the bulk OF

Their surface barely has been

Latin America is fixed TO get away
