THE NEUTRALITY TANGLE.
WAGES AND HOURS AGAIN.
GOLD STOCKS GO UP.

Senator Key Pittman, of Ne
yada, chairman of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee
wants his neutrality bill to be
known as the peace Act of
1897" 1t came to the Senate last
week, with the endorsement OF
every member of the committee
except two, Senators Johnson and
Borah, the author says that it is
suitable to the Administration and
predicts its speedy passage.
The measure would embargo
arms, ammunition and implements
Of war to ali beIiigerents and pro-
hibit loans; require the President
to proclaim lists of other articles
that might endanger peace if
traded in and prohibit American
vessels from transporting them;
allow shipment of articles and
materials for the use of bel
ligerent only after title had pass
ed to some foreigner and prevent
claims based on insurance on such
cargoes issued by American COM
panies; provide machinery for the
registration and control of mum.
tions manufacture; restrict the
use of our ports by belligerents
make it unlawful for Americans to
travel on belligerents' vessels and
prohibit American merchant ships
from carrying armament of any
kind.
Naturally, there is some differ.
ence of opinion as to whether
these measures should be adopted
by a nation and whether they will
prevent US from becoming EN-.
broiled in warfare. Certainly
there is no law that can keep us
from being attacked by other
powers and there is nothing that
compels the nation to defend it.
self, so far as that goes. The law
now being considered, as finally
adopted, will meet with considera
BILE public support. However, the
test of any law will come only
when warfare breaks out and the
people of the United States dis.
cover that it costs something in
money to be neutral and to keep
the peace.
The House Foreign Affairs COM
mittee meanwhile has its own
ideas as to the subject of neutral
ity. Its bill, approved by a ma
jority of the committee, runs coun.
ter to the Pittman no-discretion
theme and permits the Chief FIX
ecutive wide discretionary powers
in time of war abroad. This clash
has been fundamental in all dis
