B—4 = THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, DO, FEBRUARY 28; :1932—PART ONE. RADIO DEBATERS CLASH OVER WAR Rabbi Wise Hits Prepared- ness Which Father Loner- gan of Legion Defends. Opposing views of preparedness were presanted last night by Rabbi Stephen S. Wise of New York and Father Joseph Lonergan, former national ; chaplain of the American Legion, in a | debate broadcast by the Columbia Sys- tem Rabbi Wise said “war preparedness kills peace preparedness,” asserting a better purpose would be served if the millions of dollars necessary to build ® battleship were used for the relief of the unemployed Father Lonergan said Congress ghould enact the Legion’s national de- fense prog and_urged that voters defeat of Congress who failed to support X lation for an adequate Army and Navy. China as Exampie. - He said China with her man power, beset by Japan with a vastly inferior | opulation, was an example of what appened to unprepared nations. Rabbi Wise asserted “China is armed, prepared and apparently still capable of self-defense.” The French and Ger- ns were prepared before the World -, he added, but that fact did not preserve peace. “The war machines of Europe were brought into collision in 1914,” he said “because they were so prepared as make the postponement of war im- possible. Wars to Be Lost. “Hereafter, wars like the Great War will be lost. but not won.” Rabbi Wise pointed at between 60 and 170 cents of every government dollar is consumed by reparations in one form or another, for past wars or prepara- tion of future wars. Father Lonergan insisted, on the other hand, that “the Government of the United States has no right to put the security of the United States on the fluctuating market of budget allowance or subject to the rise or fall of economic conditions.” He said this country has suffered much needless loss of lives and an inestimable amount of money by being unprepared to meet wars when they arose.
