States to fight single-handed!
"in all parts of the world."
"The warmongers in France
hare destroyed the French re
public and the warmongers in
England have all bat destroyed
the British empire," he said In
a statement. "The same type of
warmongers will destroy the
United States if we keep on let
ting ear sentiments rather than
our Judgment control our poli
cies." Meanwhile Sir Arthur Salter,
chief of the British shipping mis
sion in this country, paid his
firsjt call on Secretary Hull. He
told newspapermen the president's
action in opening the Red sea
lane for American ships to Suez
would give very valuable aid to
Great Britain. For every ship
placed on the North African run,
he said, it would be possible for
Great Britain to transfer a ship
to the North Atlantic, where U-
boat conditions have been in
creasingly serious.
In Berlin, authorised . sources
called Mr. Roosevelt's opening
of the Red Sea and the Gulf of
Aden the first open American
Intervention in European affairs
and a violation of the European
Monroe doctrine.
The official Stefani news agen
cy said the president's action was
based on one of his "original as
well as arbitrary" interpretations
of international law. Stefani said
the interpretation? grew from a
theory that Egypt,, to which goods
car Id be shipped, under the new
order, was neutral. -.
