WAR RESOLUTION
REPUBLICAN TO TEST HOUSE
WASHINGTON, September 22.
In the House of Representatives Mr. Hamilton Fish (Republican, New York) demanded that President Roosevelt should "do the only honest and honourable thing" and present a war resolution to Congress.
Mr. Fish predicted that the House would defeat such a resolution by a vote of two to one.
Mr. Fish told the Press tonight that he intends to place before Congress next week a resolution to declare war ■against Germany. "The issue is crystal clear today," he said. "Shall we go to war or stay •out? I want to bring the issue to a head in the constitutional American way." .
