P. Senate Leader Offers Resolution to Balance World Budget ~ Washington, Jan. 18—(7)}—A sweep- ing reduction in world armaments— 41 per cent over the next 10 years— was proposed Tuesday by Senator Watson of Indiana as the “first step toward @ world-balanced ” Asserting. that the four words— armament, war, destruction and deb‘ —“tell the story of the world’s great worries today,” the Republican leader in his first senate speech of the ses- sion suggested the real road to peace and prosperity was for all nations to slash arms expenditures 5 per cent each year for the next decade which would result in an aggregate of 41 per cent at the end of the period. At the conclusion of his address Senator Watson introduced a resolu- tion declaring it to be the sense of the senate that the United States ini- tiate a multi-lateral treaty to carry out the project. Recalls Mussolini Failure Recalling that no heed was paid Premier Mussolini’s program for a 50 per cent reduction in world arma- ments or President Hoovers’ sugges: tion for a 33 1/3 per cent cut in the sise of all armies, the Republicar leader, now serving his sixteenth and Inst year in the senate, said only ie ly “slight progress” was made at the re- cent Geneva arms conference. He said the 41 per cent slash would ‘leave ample armament for the pro- tection and defense of every nation and yet it would largely solve all the problems that grow out of the present armament construction of the world.” Declaring armament is still costing the world each year almost $4,000,000,- 000, he said this sum would “retire | Yes, Sir—Head Over Heels in Love! Most of its public debt, whether for- €ign or domestic, in thecourse of a few years.” “It seems to me,” he asserted “that the solution of all other problems can wait until we take this first step in the progressive disarmament of the world. Unless the nations of the eaxth are prepared forthwith to stop Spending their income on armament, nobody can predict the decadence that shall necessarily befall the people of the earth.” W. F.

Iceland, he said, saw that the proposed route would lessen. the isolation of that country through & direct connection with the U. 8. The Iceland franchise was permitted by passage of a law.
