(COnLiQuSQ rom rage Onc) to enter a war zone, it should be done only after Washington has considered the risk. It is recalled that as late as 98, war was touched off by the blowing up of an American battleship which was standing by at the Spanish fortress of Havana.
 Many Considerations
 Involved in the determination of this question are many other mili- tary and diplomatic considerations What the final answer will be can only be conjectured, but it is cer- tain that no subject will receive more careful consideration during the next immediate phase of Amer ican relationships to Europe.
 The trade-in-w wartime problem is much more complicated. It runs the whole scale of maritime prac- tice from supervision of clearance papers to the operation of submar- ines. One single section on this wide front will illustrate the diff culties Suppose an arms em- bargo to Spain is agreed upon by European powers and such an embargo has been discussed-what ought the United States to do about it?
 Neutrality LGig
 There is question whether any thing at all could be done about it. Congress passed a neutrality law a year ago, and revised it last Feb ruary, but it speaks throughout about embargoes to belligerent na- tions. Spain is not belligerent in the accepted sense that she is at war with any foreign nation Here is something for Congress to think about when the present statute expires next May.
 Of course if the discussion were broadened to deal with food en- bargoes and other questions involv- ed in the general subject of neu- trality, the complications also would be increased almost with out limit. No one was well satis- fled with the neutrality measure either when it was passed or when it was revised. Certainly there is possibility. growing out of the Spanish disturbance, that the en- tire subject will be overhauled leg

 Since that time Royal Gunn.son Jr. has risen to prominence in the field of international politics and as a newspaperman. He is now en- ployed by the Christian Science Monitor
 According to information received by Attorney R. E. Robertson. Young Gunnison received a special com mission to attend the Peace Con- ference in Geneva about two years ago. Since that time he has at tained prominence as a lecturer on foreign relations. While visiting with his mother in Seattle before making the Alaska trip, MT. Gun nison was a guest speaker at the Seattle Chamber of Commerce, speaking on Europe from the Press Gallery"

Calls Turn
On GriffS
hApriL
By KIRK MILLER
Times Sports Editor

The palm for pro-
ficient baseball predic-
tions must be awarded
to Honest John" Gan
eel, the man who was
instrumental in taking
the Griffmen to Or
lando to train last
spring, and a judge of
baseball flesh in his
own right.
Honest john" some of you
will remember, was Clark Crit
fith's first baseman back yon-
der in the early days of the
American League when Griff
piloted the then New York
Highlanders, later come to be
known as the Yankees.
Well, you know. baseball blood
Is just bit thicker than molas-
ses, particularly where Griff is
concerned. He was always one to
never forget his associates in the
game and he never forgot John
Camel, he with the features of
Abe Lincoln, whereby he inherits
the term Honest" on the fore OF
his name.

find a personal report from Gan

team, to the oversigned on the
prospects of the 1895 Griffmen,

called the turn accurately, that
prophet is Honest John" Camel,
who, substantially, had this to say.
three months ago:
"Joe Kuhel shows every indi-
cation Of having q wonderful
season.
Buddy Lewis, the kid third
baseman, looks like a wonderful
find.
"Red Kress and Ossie Bluege
give the Senators the best re-
serve strength Of any team in
the American League.
"Jesse Hill and Carl Reynolds
will add class to the outfield
that will be felt as the season
wears along.
Jimmy DeShOng looks as
though he has added definite
effectiveness to the pitching
staff, and the same goes for
Pete Appleton"
Wrong on Linke
Only in his prediction on Eddie
Linke did Camel go far wrong in
his man-for-man discussion of the
1896 Griffmen, but when Honest
John" was a visitor in Washing
ton three or four weeks ago, he
said he still believed Linke had a
major league future.

forecast, printed herein, and pos
sibly many of you doubted the

Cancels estimate of the team,

walton that Camel was probably

ball club which he was instrument
tai in bringing to their new train
