NON-INTERCOURSE
IF Germany waists, nolwithstuiuling tho American pro
test, in continuing submarine warfare and torpedoing
neutral vessels and destroying American passengers upon
British liners, what will bo the course pursued by the
United States?
Probably the United States will sever diplomatic re
lations with Germany a policy of "non-intercourse" en
sue. As to what this means is set forth in an interview
with "a man high in the council of. state at Washington"
as follews:
It will mean a rcasscrtlon of tntornntton.nl morality. Non-lntcrcourso
will bo a stinging rcbuko under whoso Ignominy no pcoplu coulil fnlt to
bow.
Tho Isolation of Germany by a policy of complete non-Intercourse
would have many unprecedented results. Tho moral effect In Itself would
unquestionably bo tremendous. It would bet tho only action short of war
which would bring home vividly to ono of tho belligerents tho abhorrence
felt In America for his disregard or neutral rights.
For this at least vd havo a precedent In our own history. Tho Italian
government In ISO", having failed to obtain satisfaction from tho United
States for tho inching of Italian subjects In the historic Now Orleans
riots, withdrew its minister, and for two years tho Italian embassy nt
Washington was deserted,
Tho shamo of this rcbuko was keenly felt in this country, and many
advisers closo to tho president bcllovo such action on our part today
would produco a similar feeling In Germany.
In short, it would serve notice to the world that the
United States considers Germany, violating the interna
tional code ot morality and humanity, places herself out
side the pale of civilization and undeserving of recognition.
The dismissal of the German ambassador by the United
States might be construed as a hostile act by Germany and
bring a declaration of war from the kaiser, in which case
the United States will find itself at Avar airainst its will.
Tho non-intercourse example of the United States
would probably be followed by other neutral nations and
Germany find herself isolated from association with civ
ilized nations.

sel for Theodore Roosevelt. Ho fol
lowed to tho stand n number of for
mer members of tho state legislature,

deadlock of 1911 over the election of
a United States senntor.
Ono of these witnesses, William
Keycs, said he talked with Mr. Barnes
nbout-tho senatorial situation and
quoted Mr. Ilames ns sajing it would

ocrat. Several other former legis

nnture. Among them was Kugene M.
Travis, state comptroller and form
erly a state hcnnior. Mr. Travis stud
Mr. Barnes asked him whether he
could get the republican legislators
from Long Island to vote for nn in

Mr. Barnes stated "that seemingly
enough votes eould not bo gathered"
to select nn indetcndcnt democrat.
