Is Urged
BY COLE r. MORGAN I
Special to THE DETROIT TINES

WASHINGTON. March 5. -
Three members of the Senate OPP
posing enactment of the admins
trations lend-lease aid-to-Britain
bill today called on the American
people to inform themselves on
the fateful potentialities of this
legislation and TO let their repre-
sentatives in Congress know they
are opposed to putting the United
States into a second world war.
In statements issued by Sem
ators Pat McCarran of Nevada
and Burton K. Wheeler of Mon
tana, Democrats, and Robert A..
Taft. Ohio Republican. the people
were asked to write or telegraph
their congressman and insist on
full and free discussion of 1t in
debate before il is too late and
the bill is passed.
McCARRAN FIRST
Leading off with these state
nents was Senator McCarran. who
said:
There WAS never bill before
the Congress of the United
States that carried In II more
dynamite for American institu-
tiOns than does the so-called
lend-lease bill.
"The people OF America have
a right TO know, through the
voice of their Representatives In
the House and Senate, what Is
involved in this measure. That
being true, there should be no
Limitation OF consideration and
debate. 80 long as honest con-
scienti0us thought Is being APP
piled To the measure by those
whose duty II Is, under their
oath, 10 vote on the bill.
This bill means war. This
bill means an involvement in
foreign war at time when
the United States is not pre-
pared TO go to war"
Senator Wheeler declared:
THE Gallup poll claims that
the ma ority Of the American
people are for the pending die
tstOr-war bill, disguised As the
lend-lease bill.
II anf convinced that the
overwhelming majority of the
people are opposed to II. urge
that they make their feelings
known TO their senators and
congressman. We are confronted
with a bill that threatens the
destiny Of this country"
.TAFT'S STATEMENT
Senator Taft added
There il no question that the
lease-iend bill, unless drastically
amended. authorizes the Presi-
dent TO take the United States
into the European war.
People from back home
don't seem to realize this fact.
though every newspaperman in
Washington knows that II is
true.
This Is war bill. The more
YOU can make clear TO Aour sen
ators and congressman by letter
or telegram that you disapprove
the bill the more likely is its
defeat or substantial modifica-
ton"

TWO GOOD REASONS

'If in the new world order up
ahead il becomes impossible to
keep America permanently at
peace. then our concern should
be with keeping the United
States at peace Icing sfs-pos-
sible. There are two very OBJ
Vious reasons why this is desir-
able:
First, the longer we keep at
peace. the stronger defense we
can organize. II we organize
strong enough defense, aggreS-
sor nations will be less likely tn
tackle us, and we will have
better chance for continued
peace.
Second. IL we should ever be
drawn into conflict. the longer
the interval of peace in which
we have been able to prepare,
the better equipped we will be
to emerge successfully from that
conflict.

bases already acquired.
Analysing the lend-lease bill,
and calling particular attention TO
the broad war-making powers it
would confer on the President,
Senator Wiley said in part:
THE Constitution of this
country vests in the Congress
the supreme power TO declare
war. II would not attempt to
avoid its responsibility.
NO. SUCH POWER
THE highest duty here In
Congress il to exercise the func-
tions conferred upon the Con-
gress by the Constitution. In
that we should not attempt to
pass the buck
1T is our duty to guide the
foreign policy of the nation In
the present crisis because it may
he war crisis.
"If we are to have war, then
we should discuss that matter.
The people have the right TO
know. As the matter now
stands, they have been informed
that this is an aid-to-B ritain bill
short OF war.
The first point which I be-
lieve needs clarifying is, simply,
what must be our first concern
In our foreign policy? The an
swer to that question should be
obvious.
Our first concern In any
foreign policy must he to keep
America at peace. If We can
do that, every one will agree

WASHINGTON. Oct. 25. = The House of Representatives yesterday sent to the Senate a bill to vali- date homestead entries in sections 10 and 36 of the Matanuska settle ment and to reimburse the Terri tory of Alaska for the land.
 The land was reserved for sup port of the Territory's public schools. Settlers of the Matanuska project settled on it and developed it before it was found that it was not a portion of the original pro- ject area.
 The House of Representatives public lands committee reported that the settlers were not to blame as they had developed the land in the best faith.

 What she inquired acidly, do you think l might do with the Secret Service reports for 1862? Sell them to the Japanese?"

Der the terrible kickback that famous
appendage, Butterfly Man" gave to
the late Lew Cody. 1t was pinned
to him by one of the screens top
press agents of that day. Always
easy-going and lovable, Cody never
protested, never gave the scheme the
slightest thought. But it wrecked
his career. He was still climbing
the comeback trail when he died.
That Dietrich title, Girl With the
Million Dollar Legs" (taken over
from the stage star, Frankie Bailey,

gam placed so much emphasis on
Marlene's legs that the public would

In the days of silents, Gene

leading man. An ambitious press
agent dubbed him 'the Perfect Low

Male fans hee-hawed and threw
mudballs against billboards exploit
ing his smiling face under that
slogan.
Norma Talmadge, in whose pic
lures O'Brien cut his romantic
capers, also suffered to some extent
from a trade mark. In silent films
she played mostly emotional roles.
Her husband, Joseph Schenck, also
her producer, decided she was the
'Duse of the Screen" When talkies
arrived, it became evident with the
first peep of Norma's voice that in
spite of all her appeal and charm
she was no Duse. The backfire was
immediate. Miss Talmadge, being
financially able to do so, retired
gracefully.
Warner Brothers put over Ann

Ann any good in the long run. She
