Neutrality One-SIded.

America ali along has been profess
sing strict neutrality, but in effect her
neutrality was one-sidcd, because Mr..
wilson did everything possible. even
70 threats Of war. to prevent. and
afterwards to restrict, the German
submarine activities, but was unwill-
ing to use threats against the allies.
not even the threat of embargo. This
ATTITUDE Of Mr.. Wilson-in itself a
any battle Of the war EXCEPT the
harne-was justified by Americans
because they felt their material and
moral interests bound up with the
fate Of England and France, and be-
cause they desired to defeat the raw
ayers Of Belgium. but their conscience
compelled them to admit the truth Of
the frenzied German reproaches.
america was pretending to be neutral,
and was not neutral. because she en-
forced sea law against one belIigerent
and not against the other. Under the
declaration Of London, Germany in
dYpitably could have imported
thrpugh neutral countries much Of
what she needed, and the blockade
would have been a farce. We turned
the issue on the inhumanity of sub
marine warfare, but 1t was difficult
70 answer the German contention that
II her people were being starved by
illegal means. the only ayafls Bile
method of reprisal could not be out
lawed, however cruel And German
propaganda impressed US when II
pointed out, at the time probably
truthfully. that Germany at any
moment would abandon submarine
warfare IL England could be induced
to observe what We regarded as the
fundamentals of sea law although
We told ourselves that we or any
other people in Britains place would
do exactly as Britain was doing, we
wondered whether the same observa-
ton did not apply to Germany. When
our people were killed at sea, our
sense Of justice compelled US to con-
slider, though not accept, the German
argument that the killing was acct
dental or incidental to the infiiction
OF positive military damage on the
enemy by destroying his food and mu-
nttions, and that these operations if
Illegal were not more so than the
