fitting title for H. r. 1776. I
would call it the American En-

ample precedent for this title. to
be found in events which took
place in 1888, only seven years
ago, and their sequel.
The German Enabling Act of
1888 brought the end of constitu-

BY GEORGE X. BROWN
special TO THE DETROIT TIMES

WASHINGTON, March DE
claring that the United States has
speeded up spending to the rate of
one billion dollars a week, al
though this country is not yet a
belligerent, Rep. Louis Ludlow of
Indiana, Democratic member of
the appropriations committee, in
a speech in the House called upon
President Roosevelt to try to end
the European war through the
good offices of all the American
republics.
The revelation of the extent to
which expenditures are mounting
by member of the appropriations
committee of the Presidents own
party shocked the House as Mr..
Ludlow warned that this govern
ment is putting a mortgage on
posterity for the next 100 years.
This is the largest estimate of
what defense and war-aid is cost
ing the American people that has
been made thus far by any au-
thoritative spokesman for the
committee of the House of Rep
resentatives which is handling the
appropriations and is in constant
and often secret touch with the
spending agencies of the govern
ment.

Senator Burton X. Wheeler tD) of

group of seators opposing enact
ment of the lend-lease aid-to-Brit-
ain bill. puts the measure under
the microscope in critical analy-
sis of its sweeping porvisions.
When the Senate recessed yes
terday he had covered only half of
his subject. He will conclude his
speech when the Senate recon-
venes today. Following is a par
tial text of his remarks yesterday:
We are confronted today with
momentous issues which, so far as
our country is concerned. differ
very little from those which faced
the Congress during those crucial
weeks preceding our involvement

by its proponents, both in the
course of the debates ON the floor
and in the report of the commit
tee on foreign relations. While ]
differ with the able chairman OF
the committee, the senator from
Georgia (George), and with GER
tain of the other senator's, l do
so with the utmost respect for
both their ability and their in
tegrity of purpose.
Some of the differences are due
TO unwillingness on my part to
accept assurances contained in the
report as TO the meaning of the
bills provisions, not because
believe they we're not made In
the utmost good faith Il know the
contrary to be true) but because
on such grave issues i am I'M
willing to take the hazard which
always is incurred when we dc
not express our intentions in the
legislation itself, in words so clear
that no room for doubt remains.
CITES DRAFT ACT
I need only recall our experience
with the Consumption Act. During
the committee hearings, the ques-
ton was raised whether married
men should be specifically ex-
empted, and ! remember we were
told by the witnesses that this
would be unnecessary since the
exemption would be given effect
Enthusiastically. What has actu.
ally happened?
In some districts, the exemption
has been observed: in others, mar
ried men without children have
been drafted: and in still others
married men with children have
been drafted. / mention the
matter not for the purpose Of
expressing any opinion on the
merits of the question but simply
to point out that the best of inten.
tions may be thwarted if we dc
not express them in the legislation
itself.

ing circumvention- of the clear
intent of the Congress in another

had come to call halt to prevent
the country from going bankrupt
and being plunged into war.
He said he had just introduced
resolution under which the
President would be requested by
Congress TO invite the American
republics to send delegates to a
conference in Washington, at the
earliest possible date, to offer to
the nations now at war the serv-
ices of the Western Hemisphere as
mediator to bring about the end
of the world conflict.
The resolution was regarded at
the Capitol today as the most i'm
mediate and practical method to
bring Pan-American influence to
bear for peace. An effort will be
made to obtain a hearing by the
foreign affairs committee.
Ludlow's move was regarded as
particularly significant in that it
came from Democratic member
of the House, only short time
after the President at press con-
ference had discouraged the idea
of a statement of war aims by
Great Britain and had stressed the
necessity for putting victory ahead
of all other considerations.
SAVING THE WORD
THE people OF America
Ludlow told the House. Fought
to demand that we should do
something to save the world
and that includes America
from immediate destruction.
Although no American blood
had been spilled as yet, the
world war is costing America
at the rate of a billion dollars
week in appropriations and is
piling up a debt which already
is a mortgage on the sweat and
toll of our taxpayers.
For peace loving America,
only feebly armed, to take over
bankrupt war it had no part
in starting and undertake to
fight 1t to a finish against all
the highly mechanic super
efficient military powers of the
world Is sheer insanity.
I'VE should ascertain whether
there Is not enough moral fiber
and Christian sentiment left in
the Western Hemisphere to pull
the old world out of the pit.
II submit this suggestion of
mediation by the Western Henri
sphere as an approach to peace
because all the agencies that
might normally have opened the
road to that cherished goal
have been wiped out by the
storms of war.
UNDER U. S. LEADERSHIP
II believe that IL would easily
be possible under the leader
ship Of the United States to
get all of the republics Of the
Western Hemisphere solidly
back of this proposal.
THE United States is the
only country In the world that
could initiate mediation with
any hope Of success. Never has
any country In the history of
the world had a greater Oppor-
tunity for super-statesmanship
than is now presented to the
United States.
we have our choice of be-
ing a peacemaker or q bel
ligerent.
I 1T is my considered opinion
that unless we retrace our steps
to safer ground we will soon be
deep In the war, facing q possi-
bility Of the loss of millions of
our young men, the collapse of
our financial system and the de-
struction Of our form of govern
