Minister Churchill declared in a
Sunday night radio address.
I'VE do not need the gallant
armies which are forming through

I'VE do not need them this year
nor next year, nor any year that I
can foresee.
| But we do need most urgently
an immense and continuous supply
of war materials, and we need them
here, and we need to bring them
| here. We shall need a great mass
of shipping in 1912. far more than
We can build ourselves, if we are to
maintain and augment our war
effort in the west and in the east"
He warned that Hitler would do
his utmost to prey upon our ship
ping and reduce the volume Of
American supplies
With this, Mr.. Churchill coupled
another warning that the long
predicted German invasion might
be near at hand.
1--WE must all be prepared to meet
gas attacks, parachute attacks.

thought and practiced skill" he
asserted.
Speaking in tones OF grim con-
fidence, Mr. Churchill declared I'VE
may be sure the war is soon going
to enter upon a phase of greater
violence" He underscored the pos
sibility of a German thrust through
the Balkans
"A considerable German Army
and air force is being built up in
Rumania. and its forward tentacles
have already penetrated Bulgaria

Air Forum Argues
IFate Of America
# Britain Falls
Ideo Thut War for U. s.
Is Inevitable is Branded
As Stupid Bunk

The idea that war is inevitable
is stupid bunk" according to Sen
ator Johnson, Democrat, of Colorado
The United States and Great
Britain are not Siamese twlns-and
the death of one does not mean the
death of the other" the Senator
declared in an American Forum of
the Air debate over VOL from the
Willard Hotel last night. You say
we should give Britain money be-
cause her sons are dying for us, u
he said to his opponents in the
debate. Honorable men don't buy
their safety with the blood of their
neighbors . Only craven
people would let others die to save
their hides while they basked in
comparative luxury and comfort. -
Frank. Ingersoli Oppose.
Jerome Frank, chairman of the
Securities and Exchange Commits
sion, and Ralph Ingersoll, publisher
of the newspaper PM, insisted that
while war might not be inevitable
for this country in the event Britain
is defeated 1t certainly Is probable.
Mr.. Frank asserted that 'ff, in
spite of our aid, Britain should fall,
and if Hitler be not then exhausted,
or Nazi control of Germany has not
then collapsed, we will be forced
into a war Of defense against the
organized brutality Of which he is
the master.
Sees Armed Isolation.
And Mr.. Ingersoll insisted that
the best we can hope for Is an
armed isolation-cut of from even
our neighbors to the south. Which
would mean a military economy for
us. with an inevitable progressive
lowering of the standard of living
a process which could only end in
some kind OF violent revolution as
it intensified the strains between the
various groups and classes of this
country"
Quincy Howe, author and book
publisher. sided with Senator john
son. He said that If the United
States enters the war "the after
math in this country would be far
more serious than this ina gined
Hitler victory" And he added that
the aftermath OF a German victory
cannot be anticipated in black and
white" terms.
