B—6 - MEASSALS .8 ARNS EYPEAGES World as Near to War as in July, 1914, Dakotan Tells Grocers. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, March 18—Senator Gerald P. Nye, Republican, of North Dakota yesterday told a convention of retail grocers that “the world is 8S near or nearer to war as it was 30 days before the outbreak of the World War.” He followed this declaration by saying the United States “is spending more money in preparation for war than any other power on earth.” He renewed his attack on Eugene Grace, president of the Bethlehem Steel Corp.; Felix du Pont, officials of the Electric Boat Co., and other witnesses who appeared before the Senate Committee investigating muni- tions. - Some of the witnesses, he described as “the hellish munitions crowd who have for partners in their damnable business your Government and my Government.” Patriotism Strange, “Some of the men who came before | our committee were the coldest, most conscienceless men I ever dreamed of meeting,” he said. “They have a strange brand of patriotism. “There is very conclusive evidence,” he said, “of a titanic race in arma- | ments seemingly in preparation for | ‘war. “The world of nations, all virtually | bankrupt, has no difficulty in finding bigger appropriations for war than were ever experienced in peace time before. “We in America like to assume that our part in the race is occasioned alone by the necessity of trying to keep up a defense against the in- creased preparation of others. How unfortunate it is that the rest of the | world doesn’t follow cur example! “As a matter of fact, every power on earth has increased its budget ior! military purpcses since 1913, the year | before the World War. | “Russia, Italy, France and Great | Britain have increased their military | budgets between 30 and 44 per cent. | Japan has increased hers 141 per cent. | “We, who would like to have our example followed. have increased our military budget 197 per cent. | Munitions Men Benefitted. “All of this benefits not the masses | of the people, but the munition mak- | ers alone, who are finding a finer market through this race than there has ever been before in peace time.” The Hitler conscription just ordered in Germany, he said, “shows the blindness of men to experience and the will to plunge back into what cer- tainly will be a more frightful con- flict than the four years’ war.” | In a subsequent address to the same group last night Senator Nye told the independent ‘grocers that “‘Under N. R. A. monopoly in some fields is more strongly intrenched than ever before.” Senator Nye said that there is| “grave danger that the whole N. R. A, the good with the bad, may be thrown | into discard because of monopolies.” HOLDING FIRM BILL | SCORED BY LEAGUE Liberty Group Hits Measure as | “Most Disturbing Threat to Recovery.” By the Assoclated Press. Taking direct issue with President | Roosevelt, the American Liberty | League yesterday denounced the pend- | ing holding company bill as a “most disturbing threat to recovery.” The Liberty League bulletin fol- lowed closely President Roosevelt's message to Congress in which he as- sailed the use of propaganda by pub- lic utility holding companies to de- feat the bill which would result in the liquidation of the companies in five years. “Like the securities act of 1933,l which was so severe as to hold back the flow of capital necessary to the revival of industry,” the Liberty League bulletin said, “the pending bill would tend to nullify beneficial effects of activities under other laws.” e Dancer on Television.
