SWEDEN ASKS UNITED
STAND BIZ NEUTRALS

Stockholm. oct g. - Sweden pro.
claimed her attitude of neutrality at
the very outbreak of the war, and all
her actions since that time have borne
out that proclamation, said the prime
minister of Sweden, Or. X II. l..
Hammarskjold. in the only interview
he has granted since the war began.
Throughout the interview the pre-
mier put stress on his government
desire to follow unswervingly the
policy OF unpartisanship thus far fol
lowed
And whenever Sweden has taken
any step displeasing one or another
belligerent power. he continued. her
action has been dictated solely by con.
siderations of the Kingdoms own
necessities and of its future welfare
and not by any partisan reason.
I'VE hope sincerely that the bel.
ligerents VIII not make IL impossible
for us to maintain this attitude unto
the end.
I'VE are glad to know that the
United States has taken steps in this
matter and we have welcomed other
steps by that government in the de.
fense of the rights of neutrals and for
the upholding of the rules of interna.
