Swiss Neutrality " i
From the standpoint of international law the
United States can maintain no case against
Switzerland for selling supplies to Germany.
Switzerland is a declared neutral andas such
is free to trade with any belligerent with which
it can do business. Since Germany is right at
its border there has been no interruption in
1 trade with country because of the war.- I

food and other products going to Germany, but

In the early period of the war there was fear
lest Germany would occupy Switzerland and
thus destroy one of the old and true democracies
of Europe. Fortunately no such occupation was
carried out. At that period the Swiss govern
ment seemed to show favor toward the nazis,
perhaps because of the fear based on its prox
imity to the triumphant Germans. In later days
no complaint has been heard until the an
nouncement that the United States is curtailing
its shipments of goods to Switzerland in reprisal
for the latter's trading with Germany. That is,
of course, within our rights under international
law, and if such supplies are proving of direct,
assistance to Germany their curtailment is in
order. j
The warring world, however, remains in con
siderable debt to Switzerland. It j furnishes a
home for the International Red Cross which ex
tends its army of mercy to all belligerents. It
is helpful in the handling of work for War
Prisoners' aid. Without the help oi these inter
mediaries for which Switzerland offers haven,
" the lot of prisoners would be much poorer-i Our

. News Discrimination
; . Correspondents accredited to army headquar
ters, in France are boiling oyer with indigna-l
t ion, both over the news suppression which has
prevailed since the beginning of the German of-
fensive and second over the discrimination ins
the release of news. The censorship" has been!
rigid, for a while blacking out all news of the!
i preceding 48 hours. More reprehensible has
been the reported discrimination. The British
Broadcasting corporatipn, a British government
agency, has been getting and giving out news
before it has been released to correspondents.
Sometimes releases were denied even after BBC
had put the stories on the air. !
Just now Time magazine broke the story of
the appointment of Field Ma rsKal Sir Bernard
' Montgomery as commander of the northern
field armies, but the chief of army public re
lations at Paris, Brig. Gen. Frank A. Allen, re
fuses to permit correspondents to send the story
out until an official chronology is made public.
The report intimates that Time and United
Press, which also used the story, broke the re
lease date. But why was there any withholding
of the announcement from Dec. 20 to Jan. 5?
The correspondents feel they have a duty to
the public and are as conscientious in discharg
ing that duty as any professional group. - They
chafe under censorship, though they recognize
the need to preserve military security. Their
ire rises against news discrimination. This un
fairness will be understood $y the general pub
" lie' Perhaps combined protests may obtain re
sults. . -.- . . . .

A recent morning's grist of news contained two
warnings of gathering opposition toa world secur

The other came from Capt Eddie Rickenbacker,

European, leaders fear that once the wju? is over
and our armies back homej the United States
win let Europe stew in its own juice. Such be
ing the case they do not relish much advice from
this country on how postwar Europe should be
set np. And this criticism has validity.
This mutual exchange should not become a
narne-calling brawl, pit should result id a clear
ing jof the atmosphere, and, let us hope, in a;
fresh statement of policy which: the peoples of
Britain and the United States can support with
out compunction. ' j J " '
We have no desire to jpfropagate any anti
British feeling in this country or any inti-Rus-siant
feeling. But we must retain our! own in

out if any of our allies embark; on policies we
believe would be injurious to the war or detri

mature, and they are deeply prred by the trend
of political events more concerned about them

Plagued by appalling winter weather, the battle
of the Belgian bulge is building toward a climactio
clash. ,5 S.-j .j -j ;
German and Allied observers alike have heralded
it as the most decisive action o the war in the west.

of the war in Europe. : Belated disclosure from AK

strategic picture. , j j :

The warnings
the courage to tell what he sees,

Mr. Davis lived through and was a participant In
the stormy debate of twenty-five years ago over
the League of Nations and American adherence to
the Versailles treaty. Undoubtedly- he is . well
aware of the forces which at that time defeated
American adherence to that international arrange

Capt Eicken backer mentions another of the for
ces -that turned American sentiment in 1819, the
returning soldier. He says bluntly that the faith
of American boys to American 'ways and instifu-
' tions may be so strengthened by their stay on for
eign soil in association with other peoples that they
may very readily: subscribe to a hands-off policy
In world affairs.'. '
Certainly the returning soldier of 1919 was in
that frame of mind and it will be a miracle if simi
lar influences do not operate to place the soldiers
of this .war in a similar mood. "'.Capt Rickenbacker
