URGES STRICT NEUTRALITY
Governor Philip Says U. S. Should
Not Aid Any Warning Nation.

Madison, June 2.-In reply to an in
quiry from a Washington, d. c., news.
paper, Governor Phillip gave out the
following statement on the situation
between Germany and the United
States: "Our country can settle nc
question of human liberty nor will we
gain any desirable end, by participat,
ing in the European war We should
not seek any opportunity to secriice
American life and treasure which I'M.
der a most favorable ending would
mean a net loss to our country with
no useful service rendered to man.
kind.
Il believe it to be our duty to main
tain strict neutrality and our inter
est in humanity should dictate to us
that we give no aid to any nation
either in money or munitions of war
that will tend to prolong the strug.
gle. A neutrality that is a mere com
pliance with international laws will
under existing conditions produce com.
pllcations more embarrassing than
any we have SO far experienced. This
country has no interest in the uues-
tionS that have involved European ma
tons and war and our people should
support our president in his efforts
to maintain peace"
