risks incident to war.
Scarcity of ships is one OF the
greatest commercial embarrassments

Neutrals Always i'm Danger.
THE neutral nations are put to
great expense To preserve neutrality
and are constantly in danger of being
embroiled in the war without intention
or fault on their part.
The rules of international law seem
to have been made for the nations at
war rather than for the nations at
peace. 1t is almost impossible to alter
these rules during the war. because
any material change. Affecting as II
would the interests of belligerentsr
would be seeming violation of neu-
trality. AS soon as peace returns there
will be a demand for an international
conference on the subject. The pre-
sumption should then be given ia
peace, for peace, not war. Is the nor
NAL condition. If nations are deter
mined to fight they should, as far as
possible bear the burden themselves
and not be permitted to transfer II
to the nations which avoid war by
resorttng 10 reason instead OF force.
Under the stress and strain of the
titanic struggle in which they are en-
gagged. each side has felt itself justi-
fed In encroaehing upon the rights
OF neutrals. The ocean highways, the
common property of ALL have been to
some extent appropriated for war pur-
poses, and delicate diplomatic ques-
lions are forced upon the neutral ma
lions
Just at this time when these que~-
lions are most acute. the belligeren'
governments are least able to deal
with them with the calmness and potse

Of the files for the last few years are
