Matthew 5 : 48. ,PREPABE FOR NEUTRALITY . ., Anyone who txithers to look at the state of affairs in Europe these days must feel inclined to thank God for the Atlantic ocean. Not even in the fiiut months of 1914 was there more wide-spread expectation of a general European war at an early date. Almost no one now seems to doubt that a war is coming; the only question seenas to be, "when?" The Atlantic ocean is wide, and this continent is physically far removed from the scene of thee European troubles. But the distance isn't as great as it might be, for all that Can ada, in 1914, and the L'nited States, in 1917, learned that they could be called on to send their young men overseas to die in quarrels that were purely European quarrels in the making of which the New World had had no hand, and from whose solution it could expect no direct benefits. Today, consequently, tnih the war clouds drifting high over the Europe an horizon, the one question In whlcb most of us are Interested Is simply "If a new European war comes, how can we keep out of it?" Perhaps the best answer is the remark that the way to keep out of a war la to keep out of It; In other words, that we cannot be drawn into a European conflict U we make up our minds definitely, m advance, ' thai we are not going to be entangled In It on either side. Bach a policy might call for a stricter conception of neutrality than we obserred before. We could not permit our country to be made a happy hunting ground for propagandists, as It was In 1915 and 1016. We could not permit our financial resources to be used as a reservoir lor war loans for either aet of combatants. We could not turn our Industries Into snanufactortee for munitions of war. Is might be bard to follow such a policy. The pressure would be tre mendous. But we need only look back to the World war to understand what aha consequences of failure to follow it might be. If and when a new war comes to Europe. It will be of the highest Importance to civiliza tion that one great nation remain at peace. And if we are going to main tain our neutrality, the present moment Is not too early a time to start making up our minds. Founder 8 Pay J 8 To Be Observed Atlmbler Thurs. TMRl.Kft Th Imbler P. T. A.
