Roosevelt Navy bill debate shows provincial pacifism clash
The piece argues national defense and naval expansion are essential amid a global shift toward rearming Germany and Italy. It cites La Follette’s critique of Roosevelt’s Navy bill, contending opposition stems from domestic politics and pacifist provincialism, while defending Roosevelt’s stance as prudent for U S defense. The editorial labels critics as politically motivated and urges support for a stronger American navy.
