TY
IS HELD FUTILE
WASHINGTON , July 31. (TV-Senator
Lewis (D.-IU.) said today the
United States could be at war with
China or Japan, or both "within an
hour," if It compiled with demands
for immediate enforcement of the
neutrality law.
Discussing the administration's pol
icy with regard to the Asiatic crisis,
Lewis told the senate:
Those who are demanding that the
United States enforce Its neutrality
law at once fail to see that the mo-
ment we announce either one of the
nations as the aggressor and declare
both as being at war, our ships of
trade delivering American goods In
the Orient would at once be seized by
either China or Japan, or both, as
bringing supplies to the enemy.
"The American citizens would be
seized and Imprisoned, and then It
is that America must go to the res
cue of her people and her property,
and this she must do by her Amer
ican navy, and America becomes at
once involved In the war of China
and Japan."
