Washington special says: The United
States. Spain and Germany have all
ready signiiied 10 Venezuela they VIII
rot respect the decisions of her courts
and that certain decrees issued by her
executive are null and void. Great Brit
ain and Holland are about To issue the
came notice TO her, if they have not al
ready been issued. and others are ex-
rected. In short, Venezuela is fast as
suming the place of Pariah among the
nations. The United States has gon.
farther than the other powers. for in the
case OF the asphalt dispute she served
rctice on Venezuela that she reserves
the right to ''revicw the decisions Of
that country's courts.
The matter which aroused the differ
cnt nations to take action is totally un-
related to the asphalt dispute and re-
lates to old grievances. The most strik-
ing thing about 1t is there is absolutely
10 concert of action. There has not been
even suggestion from one power to
another, yet five of the powers named
are taking the course spontaneously.
