ASS A A
COUNCIL TAKES LIQUOR CURFEW ACTION TONIGHT
Opposed by Deluse, Favored By Campbell Who Claims Public Support.
By RICHARD LEWIS
Opposition to an ordinance which would close at midnight all places where liquor is sold has crystallized among Democratic councilmen who may use their majority strength tonight to kill the measure The curfew ordinance was duced three weeks ago by lican Councilman Harmon A. Campbell as a club against alleged lawlessness in some downtown taverns As Democratic members see it, however, drug stores and restaurants which handle alcoholic beverages would automatically fall under the ban, and would be forced to close their doors midnight rather than merely discontinue liquor and beer gales at that time. {

Seek$ to ‘Protect Western Civilization,’ Strong Defense.
| CHICAGO, Aug.'5 (U. P.)—Col. | Charles A® Lindbergh told a peace |
| tions are fighting a war over the | division of territority and wealth, an issue that has caused conflict there since history began, and {warned that the United States must
| remain aloof from that war, | He advocated that the United | States offer Europe “a plan for the {progress and protection of the Western civilization” but he recommended that the offer be supported (by an impreghable national defense. He said that an agreement with | the powers that rule Europe, | whether they be England or Ger-| many, could maintain civilization and peace throughout the world as far as we can see, and that a war between the hemispheres might last
|
for generations and bring all civili- li
zation tumbling down. Two Others Speak
Col. Lindbergh spoke to a crowd of 32.000 who attended the rally sponsored by the Citizens Keep America Out of War Committee of which Avery Brundage, U. S. Olympics executive, is chairman. The address was broadcast nationwide. Other speakers were Senator Pat McCarran of Nevada, Democratic isolationist, and Rep. James E. Vah Zandt (R. Pa), three times National Commander of the Veterlans of Foreign as: *Let us offer Europe a plan for the progress and protection of the Western civilization of which they land we each form a part, Col Lindbergh said. “If we refuse to consider treaties with the dominant nation of Europe, regardless of who that may be, we remove all possibility of peace. “We are often told that if Germany wins the war, co-operation will be impossible, and treaties no more than scraps of paper. I reply that co-operation is never impossible when there is sufficient gain on sides and that treaties are seldom torn apart when they do not cover a weak nation. I would be among the last to advocate depending upon treaties for our national safety. I believe that we should rearm fully for the aefense of America. and that we should never make the type of treaty that would lay us asion if it were broken,

Chairman | Sol Bloom of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and Senator Claude Pepper (D. Fla), agreed | with Gen. Pershing. Senator Walter | F. George (D.

“My Duty to Warn You”

He said that this may be the last moment that the United States could keep war from its shores by “measures short of war.” “1 say to vou that tomorrow beforever too late.” he said. “I am telling you tonight. because it my duty to warn vou before it is too late, that the British Navy needs destroyers and small craft to convoy merchant ships, to escort its warships, to hunt submarines and to repel invasions. We have an immense reserve of destroyers left over from the other war, and in a few months the British will be coempleting a large number of destrovers of their own. “The most critical time, therefore, iS the next few weeks and months. If there is anything we can do to help save the British fleet during that time, we shall be failing in our duty to America if we do not do it.”
