,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.
