with unneutral acts in trading
with the allies. AS soldier, who
has faced fire under the flag of
his country, Mr.. Cullen was Justly
incensed to hear a Briton openly
proclaim that he had renounced
allegiance to the flag of his birth
and was roofing" for its enemies.
The trouble with the Labor Ma
tional Peace Party, as with other
organizations which are formed
for purposes of futile agitation, it
is decidedly short on its knowl-
edge of history and international
law. AS matter of fact and law,
the United States has no right to
refuse to sell arms and munitions
to belligerent countries, and it
would be a near-sighted policy to
do 50 even though it had the right
One has only to revert to our
own country in 1898, when the
Spanish-American war broke out.
No sooner was war declared than
this government was frantically
securing the world for arms and
munitions. What would have
been our plight had we not been
able to secure these supplies !?
What would be our plight now,
should we become involved in
war? We haven't enough arms
and ammunition to last two
months and no facilities for max
ing them in the quantities in
which they would be required.
Treaties between civilized ma
tions for the last $50 years have
contained clauses dealing with the
furnishing Of arms and munitions
in case Of war, and there are such
treaties now in existence between
our country and all of those en-
gagged in the present war.
Partisans of Germany have no
just cause for complaint over our
shipping war munitions to Eng
land. The German government,
which understands the situation,
has made no complaint 1t merely
reserves the right to seize such
shipments whenever it can, and
that right is guaranteed it by all
rules Of international law.

WELL MERITED REBUKE.

Joseph ~. Nullc1, president OF
the Cincinnati Building Trades
Council, took stand on the neu-
trality question, at the meeting
of the Central Labor Council
Tuesday night, that is far more
Illuminating than his brief but
decidedly pointed remarks appear
to be on the surface.
Mr.. Cullen took the floor in a
debate on the proposal of a dele
gate from the Labor National
Peace Council, George w. Bope,
of Columbus. Mr. Bope had sub
mitted a resolution declaring that
as a means Of observing strict
neutrality in the European war,
the United States Government
should take over and operate all
plants engaged in the manufac-
ture of arms and war munitions
and decline to sell any Of the out
put to belligerents.
In the course OF the debate, "A
delegate from the Typographical
Union opposed the resolution, but
said he was in favor Of strict
embargo ON arms and munitions.
He concluded his remarks by say
ing that while he was born under
the British flag, he was in favor
of the German cause. 1t was this
last remark that aroused presi
dent Cullen, who said:
That will do. I'm here as a
delegate and citizen and have
my army record, too, as one OF
the soldiers of this country, and
when any man tells me he was
born under the English flag and
that he favors the Germans
don't want to hear any more
about neutrality from him.
move to lay this whole busines.
on the table,"
Mr.. Cullen realizes, as all Other
close observers do, that all thi,
talk OF neutrality comes iron
pro-German sources. Were tn,
ports of Germany open to receive
shipments OF war munitions ano
other needed articles, as are tn,
ports OF the allies, this talk of an
embargo on arms and war mum
tions would never have beer
heard Of If Germany will oper
her ports to the commerce of the
world, she will receive the same
identical treatment from neutra
nations that the allies are rcceiv-
ing and will be sold anything she
wants and has the money to pay
for.
SO long as the German ports
are hermetically sealed by tn,
