of such subdivisions, il they are to
have the value of materials deter

The matter of neutral trade in mu.
'nidons Of war is one Of the questions
TO be settled in the revised interna-

before. Sale OF European arms to the
Coofederacy was a problem for the
United States to contend with fifty
years ago, but as 1t practically block
AIDED all southern ports importation by
the south was difficult and could have
no decisive influence upon the fortunes
OF the war. The system of armament
is now 80 complicated, new inventions
and types so frequent and the expense
OF changes to keep up to date Ia SO
enormous, that many conservative ma
lions will prefer to depend upon the
worlds market instead OF investing
vast sums in weapons which may be
obsolete before war crisis is on. In.
ternational law can't pretend to safe
guard wenkllngs who look for privl-
leges without risks. IAN Is fair i'm
