Clark Strongly Seeks Arms Sale Change in War Risk Measure
Senator Clark argues for a bill to lift the arms embargo and permit cash sales to buyers who transport in non American vessels. He says a third bill with Nye and Bane better safeguards peace by extending a president's embargo powers during undeclared wars and giving Congress control over when a war is in progress.

George of Georgia hints shift on neutrality policy
George of Georgia noted that strong sentiment was growing in the Foreign Relations committee to abandon cash and carry. He said several members favored returning to reliance on international law with domestic shipping, travel, and munition controls. A compromise plan would let the president, with Congress, designate war time danger zones to menace American shipping and travel.
