HEADED FOR WAR?
COLONEL KNOX REPLIES TO CRITICS NO SAFETY FOR U.S.A. WITH NAZIS DOMINANT. AID TO BRITAIN IMPERATIVE. <Ey Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 11.25 a.m.) WASHINGTON, July 14. “I belong to the school of thinkers who regard as imperative the policy of aiding England, at whatever cost to ourselves, to promote both our present security and future national welfare,” said Colonel Knox (Secretary to the Navy), in an interview answering some critics who regard him as .leader of thq war party. Colonel Knox added that he did not believe a free, independent and democratic United States could long survive in a Nazi-dominated world. Wherever the pursuit of such a policy might lead, he hoped it would not lead America into war. but in his opinion war as a defence against Nazism would be infinitely preferable to peace accomplished by a surrender to Hitlerism.
