''Rationing of neutrals, involving an
| interference with some OF the vital
supplies of such countries as Holland,
Denmark and Sweden" he said, lis a
matter calculated to create intense irri-

developing into enmity. Too much
cannot be said of the splendid manner
in which the state department handled
this delicate situation. There is no

tivities and that each week the en-
bassy at London receives from 10000
to $4,000 words of material, in addi-
ton to cabled information service.
Use Many Dispatches
The state department, he added. is
the connecting link with all other ma,
tions, and it's cable service has in
creased nearly 500 percent since the
European war began, until January Of
this year. Canada, he said, was the
only country in the western hemis-

States entered it and Japan the only
one in the far east: but since then
many have entered the war He said
the United States example undoubted-
ly had potent influence on the Latin
American countries and China and
distribution of President Wilson's
speeches, he added, exercised a strong
influence.

sions from England. France, Italy,
Russia, Japan. Belgium and other
countries, he said, have Keen carried
