our steadfast refusal to acknowledge

as they affect the rights and interests
Of neutralS.
I'm the third place, note with sin
cere regret that, in discussing the sale
and expectation of arms by citizens of
the United States to the enemies of
Germany. your excellency seems to be
under the impression that 1t was with
in the choice of the government of the
United States. Notwithstanding its pro-
fessed neutrality and its diligent eff
forts to maintain it in other particu-
lars. to inhibit this trade. and that it's
failure to do SO manifested an unfair
attitude toward Germany. This gov
eminent holds. as 1 believe your excel
1ency is aware, and as it is constrained
to hold in view of the present indis-
puta BILE doctrines of accepted interna-
laws of neutrality during the progress
of a war which would affect unequally
the relations of the United States with
the nations at war would be an un
justifiable departure from the principle
of strict neutrality by which it
has consistently sought to direct
it's actions. and I respectfully sub
nit that none of the circumstances
urged in your excellency's memoran-
dunn alters the principle involved. The
placing of an embargo on the trade in
arms at the present time would con-
stitute such change and be a direct
violation of the neutrality OF the United
States 1t will, l feel assured. be clear
to your eXcellency that. holding this
view and considering itself in honor
bound by 1t. it is out of the question
for this government to consider such
course.
