Right now, the senator said, the nation is "perilously, dangerous ly close to war." He acknowledged that a controversy existed as to whether the pending bill would take the nation closer to war. He added that he did not know defin itely which said was right but had his opinion.. "Insofar as I am concerned,' he said, "I am not willing to tako the chance of moving my country closer to a war which Is not ours. Therefore, I am going to vote against this bill." War, he asserted, would lead to eventual "chaos" in this country. 'So, if after the passage of this bill the time arrives to take the last and final step I mean a declaration of war by this body I want to serve notice now that I shall never cast my vote to send American manhood across any ocean to fight in any way for the preservation of any foreign nation 'In conclusion, I want to state that I am not opposed to giving aid to England as is provided un der existing statutes."
