TAFT DENOUNCES

Concord, X. H. Feb. 1. Former
President Taft, speaking Before the
legislature here today, denounced
Qermany'a declaration of unrestrain
ed navnl warfare calling it a "gross
ly unwarranted exiwnslon of the
rights of tilockade." .
Taft said:
"The dangerous crisis ln our re-i
latlons with Germany, forced by her
declared Intention to sink neutral
vessels engaged In trade with France
and England, their crews and pas
senger without warning, by submar
ine warfare,. Is grossly unwarrant
ed exipsnnlon of the rights of "block
ade, which hplllgerents havo In In
ternational law agnliiHt neutrals.-
"It greatly emphasises the neces
sity for hastening adequate military
and naval preparedness against un
just aggression. It also takes away
the flattering unction that we are
now so remote- from a European war
that we should docllne to enter it
world league to enforce peace, Such
a league In the future will Iki as use
ful and needed a protection to us as
our leadership and participation tn
it are necessary to Its formation nnn
wise guidance, It Is our duty to our
selves and to the world to help It
protect Itself against the horrors
of another war," . .... . .
