Among other things, Lindbergh says: "The doctrine that we must enter the wars of Europe, in order to defend America, will be fatal to our Nation, if we follow it. When men are called upon to fight, and to die, for their country, there must not be even the remotest question of foreign influence involved." He states that Americans have no confidence in decisions of their leaders. He talks about the high number of aircraft and war materiel manufactured to fight in European countries. He talks about the affect on the National debt of the current spending for armaments and war production.
