WASHINGTON. June What

The war clouds have spread over
more Of Europe. Eleven countries
are now at each others threats and
there are only ten neutrals left in
Europe They are Norway. Sweden.
Denmark. Holland. Switzerland.
Spain. Portugal. Greece. Bulgaria
and Rumanis.

dent Wilson. who is looked 20 for

Because the United States and
the A. n. c nations are the most
neutral OF the neutrals. and are
on this side OF the Atlantic. the con.

Nine countries probably would

Of nations can now stop this war
by an interference OF force.
