CONGRESS ORATORY
STIRRED BY DEBATE
I OVER NICARAGUA
I (Continued from Flbst Pag*.)
■i time when "our ambassador of good
will," Col Chnrloa A. Lindbergh, was
i visiting Latin American republic'' and
’ virtually flying over the battleground.
Ash* Referendum.
Mr. Huddleston added that he did
not believe the "real rulers" of the
United States, the American people,
had spoken in the rending of the
1 Marines to Nicaragua and that he tell
' there should ho a referendum on the
j question.
Mr. Hogg declared that American
I Marines had been in Nicaragua from
- 1595 to 1924 and "at the request ol
1 the Nicaraguan government." He
said that the present was no time tor
, an "Inflammatory speech" and that
the situation afforded a "most glorious
opportunity for a man who wants to
. be careless with his facts."
The Ohioan argued that it was the
duty ol the United States to protect
the lives of its citizens wherever they
might be and that the Monroe doctrine
must either be enforced or repealed,
lie contended that if American Ma
rines had not been sent to Nicaragua
Great Britain. France, Japan and
Italy would have ordered warships
into Nicaraguan waters.
Representative Boylan, Democrat,
New York, issued a statement attack
ing the administrations Nicaraguan
policy as a "series of blunders,” while
Representative Bloom, another New
York Democrat, introduced a resolu
tion demanding information concern
ing the recent engagements in which
Marines had participated.
