Lindbergh Outlines His Stand
On Negotiated Peace; Says US
In Best Defensive Position
HOLLYWOOD, June 20-W)-CharIes A. Lindbergh declared
Friday night that the alternative to a negotiated peace in Europe
"is either a Hitler victory or a prostrate Europe, and possibly a
prostrate America as well. .
"I tell you that the only way our American life and ideals
.can be preserved is by staying out 1 1

auspices of the America First
committee. "I tell you that the
only way European civilization
can be saved is by ending it quick
1
The summarized "the true facts
as they appear before us in plain
American wording" as:
-' "1. We are still unprepared
for war, and It would take us
years to prepare adequately for
the type of war we now consider
entering. It would mean turning
this country Into a military na
Uon that exceeds Germany la
regimentation. Life as we know
It today would be a thing of
the past.
Z. Even If we were fully pre
pared at this tune, we would
face the superhuman task of
, crossing an ocean and forcing
landing on a fortified contin
ent against armies stronger than
ur own and hardened by years
of war. It would probably mean
the loss of millions of American
Uvea.
"J. We In America have the
best defensive position in the
world. No foreign power can In
vade us today, and with reason
able preparation on our part,
no combination of foreign pow
ers will ever be able to invade
us. Since they cannot Invade, It
will be only s question of time
before they desire to trade with
us And I have full confidence
In American ability to hold its
own in a trade."
.Defining his address -as an an
swer "to two of the greatest fal-
acies which have been advanced
oy me groups wno want us to get
Into war." Lindbergh said they
were: 'First, that the develop-
ments of modern warfare make
this country more vulnerable to
foreign Invasion than before, and
second, that the best way to de-
lena America is oy aeienamg
Jttigiana."
On the contrary, he declared:
"While the developments of
modern warfare have Increased
the vulnerability of nations
within hemisphere of each
other, they have decreased the
ability ef one hemisphere to at
tack the ether successfully.'
"The facts of this war indicate
that aircraft may make it impos
sible for an enemy force to land
on our American coast,' regardless
of how strong that force may be,
said Lindbergh, citing losses In-
curred by axis 'as well as British
naval forces ''whenever they come
In striking distance of enemy av-
;"But possibly the most sign!
ficant of all is the fact that neither
the Germans nor the British have
attempted to land forces by sea on
any coast adequately protected by
air.
"When we analyse the situa
tion carefully, we find that
nearly all the developments ef
modern warfare would be to
oar advantage In the defense of
American and to the disadvan
tage ef any foreign enemy at
tempting to attack us."
Lonaoerg pictured an enemy
convoy headed toward American
shores as "not a great deal differ
ent than it would have been 25
years ago."
"Aside, from the relatively small
number of planes he could release
from aircraft carriers, and pos
sibly a few long-range bombers,
his modern equipment would be
useless unless he could actually
unload it and assemble it on our
shores." v v
Bat the picture ashore would
be vastly different from . past
wars, he said, because "our sky
would be . full of long range
bombers. Our concrete high
ways would be lined with tanks
and mechanized 'divisions. Re
connaissance planes would keep
us Informed by radio of our en
emy's exact position."
"Even if the British fleet should
turn against us," Lindbergh a
sen eel, -that ueet would be no
more able to meet the challenge
of air power in America than it

the installment plan, and Oregon
communities are slated to be
among the first so served, accord
ing to Owen.
Oregon, he said, as one of the
Pacific coast states, is considered
a "target area," easily assailable
by aircraft from ocean-going car
riers. Because of this, it is to be
among the states first and most
thoroughly organized for civilian
preparedness. Coast states are
given preference in the movement
over those on Mexican and Cana
dian borders, Owen, declared, be
cause they are at nresent con.
sidered more vulnerable
Both Owen and McKav stressed
the fact that while thorough de-
fense organization today appears
"far-fetched," modern warfare in
which thev said this countrv mav
now become embroiled on short
notice is war against civilians and
not against armed forces.
"Nlnety-flve chanees eat ef
a hundred are that none mt ws
gathered here tonight will see
any air-raids or bombing, but'
that still leaves five chances
for which we must prepare,"
declared Owen.
The county defense council is
to be the active organization, the
one through which the policies
outlined by the state council are
put to work, the S3 men and
women gathered in the Marion
! council's first meeting were told.
will be left to county or
ganizations and from those
groups may come suggestions as
to general state and federal pol
icy.
Not less than II reserves for
every paid police officer and
paid fireman, three to five re-r
serves for every volunteer fire
man in the state are needed, the '
council was Informed.
Forty-five Red Cross first aid
teachers are ready to instruct ci
vilian workers, Olive M. Bynon,
Marion county Red Cross execu
tive secretary, Friday notified the
committee heads. And first aid
training will,, be required of the
air raid wardens, of whom there
will be one for every few city
blocks when the organization is
perfected, the state coordinator
said.
Already platts are prepared
temporarily locating places for
aircraft warning observation
points to be approximately 10
miles apart through all the area
west of the Cascades. Telephone
connections for the "observation
posts have been figured and ar
rangements are being made for
establishment of filtration points
at Eugene and Roseburg while
Portland will be central switch
board point
Services of II observers must
be volunteered for each post if
war should strike the Pacific
coast. It was said, so that the
work could be carried on night
and day. and In addition the
services of switchboard opera
tors will be required.
Possibly during August but not
later than September of this
year, pseudo enemy planes will
fly over western Oregon to test
air .raid observation services.
Owen told the council.
Worries about sabotage of
highways and bridges are practi
cally unfounded, the speaker said,
because of the present police and
highway department maintenance
patrols are so frequent as to make
any large-scale activity next to
impossible.
Oregon's greatest danger, and
one which would materialize
shortly should this nation go to
war Is that of fires, he said.
Wooden buildings and great
forested areas are tinder ready
for arsonists and must be
guarded. It was maintained.
Registration for Oreson Civil
Reserves will ,be opened shortly
in every Marion county commun
ity, members of the defense coun
cil declared at the close of the
meeting. Whether it would - be
conducted through state employ
ment offices where such offices
are maintained, through selective
service headquarters or some ',
other central locality had not
been decided Friday night -
"That will be among first ac-i
tual steps taken by the executive
committee through its county co
ordinator and the full member
ship of the council," Chairman
McKay declared. "

An embittered nazi spokesman
declined immediate comment Fri
day night upon the presidential
address. He observed, however,
that it was carefully noted in

by a German submarine" an at
tack ordered in full knowledge
that the victim was American
and "the act of an international
outlaw."
Saying that the conquest of
Britain was essential to German
hopes of domination of the seas,
the president declared that the at
tack on the Robin Moor was in
tended to try to intimidate the
United States against continuing
to help Britain.
"The government of the Ger
man relch," he said, "may . . .
be assured that the United
States wUl neither be Intimidat
ed nor will It acquiesce In the
plans for world domination
which the present leaders of
Germany may have."
The gravity of this situation put
in a secondary position the world
wide speculation over the Rus
sian-German mystery. There still
was no answer anywhere to the
question whether Hitler, under
stood to be demanding great con
cessions from the Russians, would
attack the Soviet to ge what he
wanted. .
But the small power closest to
the scene of the possible explo
sion Finland continued to show
great alarm. The Finns took the
extraordinary precaution of call
ing up reservists as old as 44 years

The Finnish radio announced also
the imposing of a virtual war-time
censorship.
ine lurics, whose acceptance
irom uermany of a "friendship"
ireaiy naa need Hitler for a
march on Russia if he wants to
undertake one, sought to reas
sure their old British allies and
Britain's friends.
The Turkish foreign minister,
Sukru Saracoglu, issued to Eng
lish and American correspondents
a typewritten statement savin
that Turkey in signing up with
the nazis had nevertheless taken
steps to safeguard her alliance
with the English.
The official Turkish press
supported him with the declara
tion that Turkey "will neither
become an Instrument of ag
gression against Britain, her
ally, nor undertake against
Germany any action incompati
ble with true friendship and
confidence."
This appeared to mean that the
Turks would not help the nazis
work any harm to rBitish imner-
ial positions in the east, but also
would not help Russia in any
scrap with the nazis.

dally was very quiet but some
British circles led by a newspaper
of Lord Beaverbrook, the minis
ter of state, began urging that
the Russians be helped In such an
event and that efforts .be made
to "make our friends the Ameri

In the war of the seas Britain
had bad news for her people. It
waws disclosed that while April
was the empires' worst month
this year in shipping losses.
sinkings in the Atlantic itself
exclusive of other seas actually
rose during May, although spe
cified detailed, figures were not
given.
German submarines were said
to be aprowl in the Atlantic in
increased numbers.
Aggregate sinkings for May in
all seaa were put at 481,328 tons
against 581,231 tons for April, bu
there was no analysis to show just

sion, inserted by the house, for
bidding continued WPA employ
ment of David Lasser, former
head of the Workers' Alliance, an
organization of unemployed per
sons. Lasser is now on WPA's

Senator Adams (D-Colo) floor

asserting that Lasser, while
spokesman for the Workers' Al

proper man to serve In a re

At this point, Senator Glass (D-

caught Lasser's name in the Adams-Murray
exchange, asked if
the Colorado senator was refer

When Adams explained, Glass
suggested it might be wise to "find
