Path of Neutrality Is Rough
and Uncertain, Declares
Lansing.
WAR NATIONS SEE RED
Lauds President Wilson for
His Policy of Strict
Neutrality.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2I.-Robert
~ Lansing, counsellor for the state
department. in speech before 700
alumni Of Amherst college at their an
nual banquet here. tonight, declared
that these were critical days for the
United States, "how critical only those
who are in intimate touch with affairs
can realize"
The European war, he said. had
raised a series Of problems which
never before had been solved, and
the legality Of error, the danger OF
unintentional partiality and the con-
slant complaint of one or another OF
the belligerents makes the path OF
neutrality rough and uncertain"
Mr.. Lansing expressed disapprOyal
OF the suggestion that diplomatic Of
ficers be placed under civil service
rules and defended President Wilson
and Secretary Bryan against criticism
that they failed to retain diplomats
who had been named by former ad-
mlnistrations
Il must say that the emphatic Opin-
ions OF some OF our former represen-
tatives are rather amusing, when one
considers that they would never have
been appointed under civil service
rules" said Mr. Lansing.

$4,000 SUBSCRIBED FOR
NEW CONVENTION HALL
Business Men Actively Urging
Central Location to Bring
Republicans Here.

Business men have already pledged
$4,000 for the entertainment expenses for
the next Republican National Convention
as the foundation OF fund to be used
when the proposed convention hall, which
they are urging be established at Gath
and Market streets. Is ready for use.
Members of the Chamber of Commerce,
the Allied Business Mems Committee and
all the organizations working behind the
plan to designate 24th and Market streets
as the site are proceeding on the idea that
the main object in view of present-day
convention planning should be the capture
of the Republican National Convention
for Philadelphia In 1916.
Councllmen throughout the CITY have
already received calls from members OF.
the organizations which are urging the
site at %th and Market streets, and the
representations will be made without in
terruption until majority of the Coun-
cllmen have had an opportunity to hear
OF the advantages to the city which would
follow the beginning of immediate work
upon the convention hall. Unless action
Is taken speedily by Councils 1t will be
too late to hope for the completion of
the proposed hall in time to offer IL for
the 1916 Republican Convention. II is
this event which is regarded as the most
hitting that could be found for the nnen-
Ing Of great convention hall for PhIla-
1elphia. '''"
