By Perry Arnold.

question of whether he would favor or
oppose an embargo against shipments
of munitions. .or the passage of the
.V ' -iV: VkStT - - - tV
m6rjot Uftajatenauce
travel -and th rigbt f ablpments. It
is a very important, right that we have
as a neutral nation and It la verv im
portant at. thia time. When he 'great
wa Is raging- w should vmaicate neu
tral rights and maintain the integrity
of international law.
Biff&ts Shosld Be UalatalaeO.
To my m tod it Is a very tbought
ess policy that would -surrender any
of these Important right because of
any sentimental consideration, , whan
we have, the vast necessity of neutral
commerce and tbe importance of the
rights of neutrals to consider with re
spect to .the future , of the1 United
