SAM STANDS STRAIGHT

Secretary Bryan's letter to Senator Stone. chairman of the Senate
Foreign Relations committee, is a complete answer to all charges ot
Partially toward benigerents by the United States government. The
very fact that the specific complaints answered are about equally divided
between allegations OF favoriusm TO the Allies and favortism to Ger
many is a tribute to the evennessw with which the scales of neutrality re
held by this country.
Further evidence on this point. ii any "a needed. would be fur
nished by the fact that o II the very same day a leading London journal
and a prominent Berlin paper published leading editorials accusing the
United States OF coverty aiding the enemy. 1t is selfevident that this
government cannot lend moral support to the Allies and to Germany at
the sam time, and if each side OF the great wal imagines it sees evil
dence OF our leaning the other way. it must be plain to the unprecedented
that we are not leaning either way, but standing upright, as W e should.
