ISSUES OF WAR NOT

A WARNING TO friends of democracy every- where not to deceive themselves that the issues of the war now-on in Europe are yet fully understood was voiced by Sir Norman. Angell, internationally known English economist and writer and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1933, speaking at a meeting of the Women's Division of the Committec to Defend America by Aiding the Allies at a luncheon at the Astor Hotel in New York.

An offer to provide am- bulances and volunteer drivers to serve with the French Army has been re- ceived at headquarters of the Free French Forces in London from 'the American Field Service in

was a policy directed checking the totalitarianism of the 'Holy Alliance'," he recalled. "Whether the form the Monroe the changed conditions of our time Doctrine then took is adequate to it is for you to judge. The pre- sent interpretation would seem to mean that if Germany were to occupy Patagonia, commitments would compel you to fight, but not if Germany

occupied. Ireland. Would the German occupation of threaten you Patagonia really more than the German occupation

of Ireland?"

Sir Norman stressed that Abra- ham Lincoln saw the "profound truth" that union was the very condition of survival 40 years after President Monroe: that he knew that democracies must hang to- gether or perish.

"Even at the cost of one of-the- bloodiest wars of history, Lincoln stood for Unity against disintegra- tion," he continued, "for he knew that if unity were not maintained, then freedom could not be main- tained. The same truth in only slightly different form confronts us to-day."

Sir Norman stressed the deep, common interests between the United States and Great Britain. It was proved most recently, he said, in the British invitation to the United States to become more powerful on British territory in the Western Hemisphere.

"We Hope now to improve our defence and yours by letting you in," he added. "It is testimony of the most striking kind to our pro- found conviction that the stronger you are the safer in the long run 'shall we be; the safer, that is, will be those values which we both treasure beyond life. Your power is part of our safety, and, as both your great political parties have recently declared, our power is part of your safety."
