HOW u. S. EMBARGO

embargo grip on the kaiser's throat
is Tightening day by day.
Its effect is keenly felt on both sides
Of the Atlantic. There are neutral
protests from Holland and Scandana-
via, and from American exporters.
Some of the latter seem to
have imagined the embargo would lift
the British blockade, and that things
would be easier. They have discov-
cred Uncle Sam Is not going Off half
cooked.
To enforce a real embargo takes an
elaborate organization to issue the
necessary export license for every
shipment, and inspect all shipments.
Building up that organization is the
present embargo board task. Until
it is complete the British blockade
will continue In full force.
At present shipment from America
involves complicated legal procedure

WAR ON AUSTRIA
MORE DOUBTFUL
Wilson Said to Be Inclined
to Await Develop
ments
STILL CLINGS
TO PEACE HOPE
Congress Ready to Follow
the Presidents
Lead

! Washington, Nov. 2S.--Information has
come to the United Press that President
Wilson will not ask for declaration of
war against Austria or Germany's other
allies at the outset of Congress, De-
velopments in the sinking OF the Amer
lean steamship Schuylkill may change
the outlook, however.
A deadlock on the Italian plains or de-
cisive TeutOn defeats on other fronts
may cause Austria to seek an advan-
tageous peace. The United States has
remained at peace with Germany's most
powerful ally for the express purpose of
being free to aid such a move if consid
cred best for the allied cause,
Debate on the policy is likely to start
shortly after Congress opens ON Dec. 3.
Republicans may find in it an issue to
distinguish their war program from the
administrations without any implication
of disloyalty Congress is empowered to
declare war without the presidents con-
sent.
One factor working against an imme-
diate declaration of war is that Congress
expects to be almost constantly in SEES
sion for ten months. Thus, if further
war declarations become inevitable ac-
ton could be taken without delay.
Congressional leaders have no definite
legislative program in mind. Aside from
keeping down expenditures to absolute
necessity, their present plans are to fol.
low the presidents lead. With only a
week until he reads his message to Con-
gress, leaders are still without an ink
ling officially on what he will say.
But individual members have indicated
that, besides war resolutions against
Germany's allies, they will bring the fol-
lowing subjects before Congress:
Criticism of the Lansing Ishii agree
ment, "alien Stacker" amendment to the
selective service law and inclusion of all
men between - and 40, universal mill |
tary training, attacks on Herbert Hoover !
as well as amendments to the food con |
troll law broadening his powers and
bin permitting American
soldiers and sailors TO accept foreign hon '
ors for bravery.
Plans for a partisan battle which win |
be waged with next November's elections
in mind were informally discussed at a |
recent conference of Republicans here.
Senator Weeks OF Massachusetts, who .
attended, said that the Republicans
might not push the matter of a COM
mittee on war expenditures. Others,
however, said it would be pushed with
no particular thought of victory, as it
was defeated last session at President |
request.
