UNCERTAINTIES CONCERNING
 CONTRARAND.

May Americans ship tooth brushes to Ans terdam? Surely. Copper? By no means. At least so says England thus raising neatly the l whole question of what IS contraband of war | According to the ordinary definitions, con aI,and is anything which is forbidden to be sup piled by neutrals to belligerents But what is for ,idden? There's the rub. Nobody knows. X nation may strike at it's enemy's trade by ca in three ways. It may forbid the shipment of
 erta;n articles from its home ports. That is it's
 wn affair and 1t may do as it likes Or 1t may blockade with it's war vessels the ports of the enemy, thus preventing any commerce enter ne them. And finally it may announce a list
 f contraband articles, which it claims the right to seize the ground that they give aid to the.
 :nary forces of the enemy.
 There always have been disputes about what may properly be set down contraband. \ nation may attempt to extend the list in order to harm the er;cTy. The temptation to do this is g-ea because of the saving of the expense of n extensive blockade. A conference of the powers at London in 1909 tried to classify articles as ccntraband conditionally contraband (contra- band when intended for military useS and non-
 ontraband. Eleven groups were put on the ab- >olute contraband list. But England has more than doubled the number since the outbreak of
 ar and has increased the conditional contraband list
 Who is to determine what's what? Interna- tonal tribunals at The Hague aren't doing rush ing business this season. Apparently the only thing to do IS to worry aloRg, each side trying to be as reasonable as possible.

CONCERNING NEUTRALITY.

f We are genuinely neutral natlOn We are neutral in our diplomacy and commerce. We arc neutral in national attitude toward the war, in the sense that we started with no preju- dice for or against any nation and are still | pen-mnded enough to permit our opinions to be shaped by events.
 l Our wise and proper neutrality imposes s- 1 fence regarding war topics all official repre- sentatves of the government. But it is peculiar Interpretation of neutrality that would seek to in- terfere with either the formation the expres- sion cf opinion on the part of any private citizen
 Thought and speech are free in this country. Any citizen has the right to form his own judg- lent about public affairs and public officials and to express them without hndrance as long as he loes SO decently. We not afraid of ideas. We have no fear of logic or criticism applied to our own domestic affairs Why should we hesitate 70 lock facts ir the face when those facts have to do with foreign nations whose conduct and ideals intimately concern interests?
 Charles w. Eliot, president emeritus of Har~ard University, pronounces the war the greatest catastrophe that has ever befallen the unan race. Other scholars call 1t the greatest crime of history. It is now, and may long con nue, the most important event in the world. Nothing within the experience of living men has cen so fraught with vital import for the destiny of the The problem of warfare, the most nsistent of all the problems of civilization, is
 
 q out just as effectually within our own minds No man or woman of intelligence can help pom 1ering the war, seeking for it's causes, watch ng its progress speculatng oh it's results and as- signing praise blame the statesman and na- ions involved And no person who thinks deeply nd feels deepls can help giving expression now and then to his opinions.
 It would be cowardce, rather than praise worthy neutrality, for individual Americans to hut their eyes and close their minds to the moral considerations involved. Every citizen owes 1t to himself to think about the with all the clear ness and concentration at his command. He owes 1t also to his country and to the world; for lotng but a great volume of clear thought can ut stop to war.
 The more definite opinions hold and the lore clearly and powerfully able to ex- press them individuals and as nation when yer opportunity serves, the more we shall justify our citizenship and the wei shall be able to do for humanity.

THE PROHIBITION FIGHT.

forces the necessary two-thirds vote in congress on the constitutional amendment, and the liquor inter ests did not expect to lose. It test oi power in which the 'antis" boiled surprisingly large voteHr11ore than half the total. The Anti saloon league, encouraged by the result, will in- troduce the issue in the next congressional cam paign and make another fight in the congress and probably in the next, and the next. Liquor is going to be mighty lively in national politics from now on-
 Perhaps it does no harm to have the matter agitated in this spectacular way. And yet 1t seems at least unnecessary that problem generally regarded in America as local issue should be forced upon governing body that has plenty of distinctly federal matters to occupy its attention
 Liquor may eventually become national is- sue, as 1t has in Russia but the time IS not yet. The states have thus far shown themselves compe- tent to handle the subject Wherever there is sufficient public sentiment in state, there IS local option, to the degree desired. Wherever state has clear preponderance of sentiment against looms, there IS statewide prohibition already in force. In some parts of the country large groups of states have banished liquor. Elsewhere the population IS not ready for such action.
 Experience has shown the bitterness and the difficulty of administration that result from na tional laws by the public opinion of any large sec ton of the country For bare constitutional
 
 against their will is permissible by the letter of our law. but contrary to the spirit of our lnsti- tutions When any state is free to prohibit the traffic within it's own borders, and has power to prevent importations of liquor, 1t may properly be considered over-zealous and meddlesome to as sum to regulate the sumptuary affairs of other states. It would be particularly irritating if, as might happen. in case such amendment were sub
 itted to the state legislatures for approval three If Ina cfa try's population might impose prohibition on the whole nation. rr s@ ~---'- ~t--f
 Most persons will agree that we should all be better Off without alcohol-and without to- bacco, too, for that matter. But this is. not yet Russia and we must not expect to Top off through cit the whole nation, at one blow, habit that has persisted for many thousand years If we are to be nation of teetotalers, the great centers of population should first be persuaded, so that they will acquiesce when the time comes For without such acquiescence there can be no eff fective prohibition.
