man Horace NJ. Towner, OF Corning.
representing the eighth Iowa district,
turned his attention to international
law and the European war, in a
paper read at the state bar association
today, and declared that the nations
at war have violated the customs OF
nations, but that the good accomplish
ed in the past must not be lost be-
cause of that.
American and other neutrals must
suffer-" he, said, "but we are right in
protesting against all violations"
Judge Towner did not think our pr J.
tests would lead to war, nor did he
think any of the beligerents would in
tentionally affront the United States.
He did not think America could aid
in bringing the war to close until
one of the belligerents at least issued
an invitation, and this Is unlikely.
Taking up the question of an embargo
on arms. he said this country had the
right, through congress 10 take such
action and that 1t might have been al
right If taken when the war first
started. but that now it would prob
ABLY be considered a hostile act by at
least one side.
