WORLD DILEMMA
AMERICAN AMBASSADOR’S SURVEY
DENUNCIATION OF VICIOUS CIRCLE. NEED OF ARMS LIMITATION. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. LONDON, October 20. The American Ambassador, Mr J. P. Kennedy, in a speech today, said that the armaments burden was approaching the point “at which it threatens sooner or later to engulf us all in a major disaster. World leaders face a terrible dilemma.” Failure to arm, said Mr Kennedy, might mean domination by a stronger power or group of power?. Further rapid rearming would eventually result in severe economic difficulties as surely as would world war. “No nation will be able to stop this vicious circle of misdirected energy, but we have to get together if we are going to maintain our standard of living. Americans look forward to the day when the nations will realise that they must agree to arms limitation.”
