Newspaper Page Textt MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1939. PAGE SEVEN FAIR TO ALL IS (Continued train Pg o one.) hit colleagues, "why we thould not have both the arms embargo and the ah and carry provision." Repeal Price Too High One of the leaders of the opposl tlon to the bill In Its present form, Nye declared: "There can be quick passage, through the senate and through the house, of legislation to provide a cash-and-carry provision to cover all commerce which la not covered by the existing embargo law. "I want that kind of law, have wanted tt for a long time, have pro posed and stood with others here In urging Its enactment Into law. I now stand ready to do anything possible to bring about the passage of that kind of legislation, but not if the repeal of the arms embargo la the prios to be paid for It." Nye took the floor after Senator Tobey (Ft., N. H.) had spoken In sup port of his proposal, first advanced yesterday, to split the present bill In two, enact now the shipping con trols and other similar provisions, and take up later the question of re pealing the embargo. The North Dakotan spoke in a time previously assigned to Senator Overton D La.). When he arose there was a brief outburst of argu ment over whether he should talk then, but Overton ended that with the announcement Nye should pro ceed. Danger To 17. S. Ships Seen Tobey argued In support of his plan that "there la extreme llkell hoo dthat . . our ships will be In danger of being sunk In the war ones at any time, and thus en danger the determination of this country to be kept out of the Euro pean war." While the historic debate held forth, on the senave floor for the four day Senator George (D Oa.) told reporters he expected Demo cratic authors of the pending bill to meet "soon" and consider modifica tion of the shipping and financial provisions. He said shipping Interests had pro tested what they considered the stringency of the restrictions wnlob would be Imposed on shipping. On the house side. Rep. Mundt (Ft.. S, D.), charging "strategists" of the arms embargo repeal drive with com mitting a "sly legislative trick," de manded the house be permitted a full 30 days debate on neutrality legislation. "The strategists of the (.embargo) npeal drive have resorted to a sly legislative trick In an effort to de prive house members from having due opportunity to consider any leg islation now passed by the senate," he said. "Instead of Introducing a new neu trality bill In the senate . . . the session of the senate foreign affairs committee (open to.repeallsts only I) determined upon the device of amending everything after the title at the previously-passed house bill. Thus while the bill Is an entirely new piece of legislation. It will come back to us as an amendment to the house bill and under customary pro cedure will go to conference, the dif ferences ratified, and then come to us for a yes' or 'no' vote with de bate limited drastically and no op portunity for amendments." At the White House, Senator Bridges (R-NH), after a conference with President Roosevelt, told re porters he was In "Just the same position as X was before" on neu trality. Tm not committed to anybody on how I'll vote on the final Issue," he explained, "I've been counselling against hurry and rush and I m in a good position, because I voted against the neutrality bill In the first place. I am free to do as I please when the time comes." Senator Overton followed Nye in the senate. Urging retention of the arms embargo, he argued the sale of armaments to European belligerents would constitute "armed Intervention on the part of America."
