BASIS FOR POLICY

The United States foreign pol
icy, General Wood charged. is ap-
parently based on these premises:
Germany is determined, not
merely to create a new order in
Europe but to conquer the world.
Our destiny is entirely
linked with that of the British
Empire-we have no indepen-
dent destiny.
The British navy is our
main bulwark; if Britain is
defeated, we will be invaded by
Germany. Japan or a combina-
ton of the two and will be
unable 10 defend ourselves.
In the event of a British
defeat. Germany can strangle
the United States economically.
These premises, General Wood
charged. are false. adding:
This foreign policy originates
In New York City where the
wealthy and upper class native
element IL so dominated by
financial and social ties with
Great Britain that II has become
a class of colonials, not Ameri-
cans-the class that Is preach
ing permanent union with
Britain"

President in his defense measures
in his efforts to unite North anc

1--WE know from the speeches
of Some of our cabinet officers
that they want active interven-
ton, actual entry into the war.
Their speeches must have been
approved by the President. Yet
we cannot tell from the speeches
of the President just what his
intentions are The period
OF generalities Is over. I agree
with our interventionist oppo-
nents that a decision must be
made =.
Either we must decide to co
into the war rs an active ally
Of England or we should decide
to stay out. If we decide to stay
out, we should advise England
to make n negotiated peace -.
"But a decision as far-reaching
as the decision as to whether
we should enter the war, involv-
ing the lives and future OF our
nation, should not be made by
one man, be that man ever so
gifted and even II that man II

"The decision must be made
by Congress, for II we are to
get into an undeclared war as
the result of executive or admin
istrative action. there would be
apathy and sullenness, not unity
In the nation"
General Wood declared that
both President Roosevelt and
Congress should welcome a ma
tional referendum" and suggested
that the referendum consist of the
three questions:
Shall the United States
enter the European war to aid
Britain and to defeat Hitler?
. Shall the United States de-
clare war if any portion of the
Western Hemisphere be at
tackled?
. Shall the Neutrality Act be
repealed?

Better Gun Sight Discovered
by Young Artillery Officers

With the Army in Tennessee,
June rs APP Two young field
artillery officers, faced with short
age Of sighting equipment for their
heavy guns, substituted pieces Of
water pipe and got the idea for a
sight that has proven more than
twice as accurate as the instrument
they lacked.
The original sight cost the gov
eminent $685., while the new one
can be manufactured for $3.50 re-
tail and IS in lots of 1000.
The inventors are Capt. Lowell

1t. Col. w. Q. Howell, ordnance
ofilcer attached to the 18th Artil-
lery Brigade, said the new sight
is the most effective II have seen
in 22 years in the regular Army"
The invention is constructed Of
two sections Of pipe. with lens
on each end, and two mirrors fitted
into openings at the center q the
pipe. One man sights the hori-
zontal movement OF the gun
through one pipe and another
sights the vertical movement
through the other.
The sight is designed principally
to combat tanks by giving vertical
movement to the gun quickly. while
it is being sighted horizontally
The gun commander merely desig-
mates the targets and computes the
