NO PAUSE EXPECTED.
WORLD ARMAMENTS RACE
WASHINGTON, May 6. The Under-Secretary of State, Mr. Sumner Wellea, in a radio broadcast, said- it was imperative for the United Sta'tes to maintain adequate military and naval forces to defend North America and the Latin American Republics until aggressor nations ceased violating treaty rights and obligations.
"I believe our fellow-citizens will insist that the Government be prepared to co-operate with the other American Republics if necessary to repel acts of aggression whereby any non-American Power or Powers may attempt to dominate a portion of the western hemisphere," said Mr. Welles. "I see no hope of a pause in the armaments race until the nations re-establish the fundamental principles and morals of international conduct and agree to abide by them."
