Title: Wheeler hits sale of guns at peace rally. Washington, D.C., June 8. Condemnation of 'war hysteria' and defense policies was voiced last night by leaders of congressional, labor, student, and women's groups at an antiwar mass meeting. Over 1,100 persons attended. Senator Burton K. Wheeler, Democrat, of Montana, struck at Administration proposals to sell the Allies supplies of rifles, 75 millimeter guns and ammunition 'officially described as obsolete.' He further stated, ' I want to do everything to help the Allies stamp out the brutal forces which seek to dominate Europe and perhaps the rest of the world, but setting the United States on fire will not help cut out the fire in Europe'
