If the United States allpws fear of
Germany to dictate its foreign policy,
the reign of our nation as a world
power will soon come to an end, Prof.
Lawrence Preuss of the political sci-
ence department declared yesterday
in an address to the Ann Arbor Ro-
tary Club.
If we refuse to repeal the arms em-
bargo because we are afraid the Nazis
will sabotage our factories we have
deservedly earned the title of "de-
cadent democracy,"' he asserted.
"Many persons who say they favor
the present neutrality law are merely
afraid that Germany will not respect
our rights if a change is made, but
feel certain that England and France
will continue to heed our warnings,"
Professor Preuss argued.
"I believe that the foreign policy
suggested by President Roosevelt is
the correct one because it enables us
to build safeguards against nations
which seem intent on war," he de-
clared.
Repeal is the wisest foreign policy,
he stated, "but it must be combined
with a modified form of a cash and
carry system."
Laying a groundwork for his con-
clusions, Professor Preuss traced the
history of the United States' foreign
policy from the Civil War to today.,
He claimed that President Roosevelt's
program today is a symptom of a
creed our country adopted in 1932
which said that "our nation has the
privilege of discriminating against
the nation at fault."
We fought the World War presum-
ably to protect our "neutral rights,"
Professor Preuss continued, "but this
creed of impartiality has changed to
one of selection of aggressors."
Pawlowski Gives Talk

aeronautical engineering department

tion Monday before students of the
Department of Aeronautical Engi-
neerin at Wayne University. The

"The American Way," a sound pic-
