Stars Tom Bosley. Progressive Nebraska Senator Norris blocks Woodrow Wilson’s 1917 Armed Ships Bill, which he feels is “simply an indirect declaration of war” that could propel the U.S. into World War I without due deliberation by Congress. Issues: disarmament and social justice, loyalty to conscience vs. loyalty to constituency, neutrality and isolationism vs. war, and Congress’s foreign policy role.
