There are. however, cases where Sweden is forc ed to sell goods necessary to Germany in order to obtain from Germany goods absolutely essential to Sweden, chemicals, for instance.

The liberal party is also, it appears, entirely for the maintenance of neutrality. The conservatives, Mr. Framing is reported a saying, are di vided; one section, including the of ficial leaders and the ministry, is for neutrality, but there is another section which is In sympathy with Germani and strongly Jingoistic. However, this section has little Influence In the country. The following fact, Mr Pranting continues, will show you how earnestly our government strhes to adhere to the policy of neutrality.

Much Was Sacrificed In ( iiiupiiliii) Against the Germans Xo lloll Itcivlvcl from England In Way t( .Moil or Munitions Hut l.oii id 35,UOO,04M Was secured. BY ARTHUR E. MANN. (United Press Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. "Thu only conditions on which the 1'ulon of South Africa would be willing to relinkuish the German South Afri can territory recently captured, would be upon the payment of a large indemnity," said P. J. Von Schreuder, who has been sent to this country by the Boer government ;o study American agricultural meth ods. "1 do not give this as my per sonal opinion," he until. "It seems to be the overwhelming sentiment both among Boer political leaders and the mass of the people. "The Union of South Africa s i. ri riced a great deal In making this campaign against the Germans and they deserve a great ileal of credit when yuu consider that they did not regard themselves a.s necessarily in volved in the war and also beiausu they received no help from England in l ie way of men fr munitions. We did get a loan of $:i j.Mini.iuii) from England but without this It would have been Impossible for u.s to make the campaign. In fact the louu was made, not so much at our request, but at the behest of the British gov ernment which wished us to drive the Germans out of South Africa. At that the mpney was not a gift and will be repaid without a moment of hesitation unless the British goveeii ment should voluntarily offer to cancel the loan. ,j "In consideration of these facts it can hardly be expected that the Union of South Africa would look with any degree of favor on the prospect of having to return to tier many her hard earned conquest un less there la given her In return enough money to make up for the economic loss. "I have heard some talk that per haps the British government might be willing to grant the Boers a larg er measure of home rule if they gave up the conquered territory but that Is Impossible. We have as great a measure of home rule now is Is possible If we are still to rem, 'In a colony of England. Any further con cession on England's part ami we would logically become a free anil independent state. "And that brings me to remark oti the danger to England which would result in the event that she endeav ored to force conditions upon tin Union of South Africa at the con clusion of the war which we did not favor. During the recent rebellion led by Gen. De Wet there were many citizens, some of them ii power In the state, who, while not taking I art physically In the rebellion, were yet In sympathy with the movement and only refused their actual phiskal aid because they did not think that wits the time to endanger England s existence by adding to her already great troubles. But should England at the conclusion i;f the war. act In a manner Inconsistent with the spir it of Independence and love of lib erty of the Boers she might bring about a rebellion which would as sume serious proportions. "And it Is quite likely that Eng land, that Is the British Isles, .voiild not enjoy the notion of the Union cf South Africa as an Independent state. Not because she has any huililng ambitions to possess the country but because she realizes how valuabbi we are In furnishing her with much needed supplies. We are now .send ing vast quantities of grain, wool, hides, and with the " acquisition of German South Africa we will be able to send her a great deal of beef. "As a British colony It Is not prob able that we would ever Impose anv tariffs on lexports which would he unfavorable to the home country hut were we independent and should such legislation at any time appear advan tageous to us, there would be no rea son hv we should then hesitate .( improve our economic resource Hi that wav. Considering the nt South Africa " ""iir.'C of KnglWl supplies in time of wr. our Irnpotl ance as a British colony will easily be seen. Were we Independent ami were lOngland to go to war again. It might easily he possible that our supplies would he totally iDnie t England."
