an extremely difficult task, but Pres't
Wilson believes he has succeeded in
passing all the breakers. He has
from the first endeavored to preserve
the spirit as well as the letter of the
laws Of neutrality, and he thinks he
has done this in spite of tremendous
pressure. and most bitter and unjust
criticism, from many sources. He
has been assailed by both pro- British
and prO-German advocates for main
tanning such a strict neutrality, and
