BULWARK OF DEMOCRACY
BRITAIN AND AMERICA PLEA FOR CO-OPERATION OPINIONS OF AUSTRALIAN (Klec. Tel. Copyright—United Press Assn.) (Reed. May 5, 9 a.m.) NEW YORK, May 3. Sir Henry Braddon, the Australian company director, during an address on British-American co-operation, cited the menace to democratic institutions of increasing the number of dictatorships and the definite failure of the League of Nations to achieve collective security.
"Neither England nor America, operating separately, could expect to deal efficiently with the present situation, but together they have such tremendous resources in man power and material that there is no limit to the good they might accomplish," he said. "As recently as the last generation, Australians deemed themselves safe due to their isolation, but to-day science and invention have annihilated distance and aerial' attacks are a very real danger."
