SALE OF AMMUNITION
 AND ARMS TO BELLIGERENT
Former President Taft Says Prohibi- ton Would Be Detrimental to U. s.

New Haven, Conn, Feb. 9.-William Howard Taft made public today 8 letter he wrote on January 26 to Pro- lessor Won Mach of Harvard in which the former president proposes the en- actment of law prohibition the sup plying of ammunitions of war from this country to the belligerent nations. The letter was in answer to a, request from Professor Von Mach, asking Mir Taft to write 8 letter. to be read at 8 neutrality meeting" favoring the passage of the bill introduced by Sen ator Hitchcock providing for such in- terdiction.
 The letter, which was not read at the meeting, MT. Taft says, follows: My Dear Professor Won Mach: T have yours of January 24th. I cannot write to @ neutrality meeting such 8 letter as you would wish l think that to interdict the supply of ammunition and arms from this coun- try to the belligerents in the war would be to adopt a policy that would inter- feTe seriously with our own welfare should we ever be drawn into war against our will by the unjust Inva- sion of some power who was fully prepared and who would always find us unprepared. Such 8 policy as that you indicate would mean that the DOW CT who is armed cap-a-pie would aI- ways have at a disadvantage those countries that were not in such a state of preparation It would. there fore, lead to even greater pressure up- on all the countries of the world than that we have seen in the last two de- Cades, to increase their arnlaments. 2 result which we would all depIore For this reason, I cannot think that 1t would be wise to pass a law chang ing all the rules of international law heretofore prevailing with respect to the sale of ammunition and arms to belhgerents by neutral countries. NoI do think that in the present exigencv 1t would be an act of neutrality to dc so, because it would inure only tc the benefit of only one of the bellie- erents
 "Sincerely yours,
