called upon to take the ultimate step
even il it is war.
The President was not enamored
Of the neutrality act. Administration
followers did their best to obtain
changes in the drastic provisions Of
the measure as it first appeared, and
to some degree were successful. In
the case Of the Japanese Chinese con-
f1ict the President has not invoked
the neutrality act Because Of the
fact that, if applied, the act might
initiate strongly against China, the
failure Of the President to act under
the law has not been criticized by
many whose sympathies are with the
Chinese.
The neutrality act itself may come
up for amendment If Congress meets
in November. On the other hand,
those who supported the measure may
rush to the front with demands the
President apply 1t without further
delay.
Contrary to Spirit.
The present policy Of the admin
lstration as announced by the Presi-
dent in Chicago. and later backed ur
by Secretary Hull's statement declar-
ing Japan the aggressor in China. Is
contrary to the Eolationist spirit that
was back Of the neutrality act. That

Senate last Winter by overwhelming
votes. The House approved 1t, 374
to II, and the Senate, Al to Is. The
effort of the isolationists was to frame
a hard and fast law which would keep
the United States from becoming in
volved in any war between foreign
nations. 1t was the most drastic thing
of the kind ever attempted, with
the United States virtually Withdraw
Ing from the old doctrine Of the free
dom OF the seas, and declining to ac-
ceJs responsibility for any citizens Of
this country who might be found in
war zones. 1t calls for embargoes on
shipment OF arms and the granting
of loans to belligerent nations.
Opponents of this kind of neutrality
legislation. at the time. expressed the
opinion that public sentiment would
arise in this country and overthrow
or disregard such 4 law, depending
on the sympathies OF Americans to-
ward belligerent nations. They warned
also that Americans would not be
willing to see their trade. particularly
if extensive, driven of the seas.
Sentiment in this country growing
out of the japanese Chinese conflict

Is such that the President may find
very considerable backing for his
newly announced policy, although 1t
appears that there still is very strong
opposition to this country's becom-
ing involved in that or any other for
eign war.
Aside from TIE question Of foreign
affairs, special session of Congress
called now by the President will be
expected to deal with crop control
legislation, wages and hours legisla-

NIGHT DRIVING
(By John Jaster, Jr., Ohio Highway
DIRECTORY

(By John Jaster, Jr., Ohio Highway
Directory
A practice that leads to many ac-
cidents on highways at night is too
fast driving by motorists for the Wis
ibility Of their headlights.
An automobile equipped with
brakes in good condition, tests show
can be stopped within SO feet from
the point OF applying the brakes il
the car is travelling 40 miles an
hour. The stopping distance is 137
feet if the speed is so miles an hour
To this stopping distance must be
added the number Of feet Travelled
during the reaction time of the
driver. 1t takes the average oper-
ator from one-half to three quarters
of a second to apply his brakes af-
ter seeing an object on the road
ahead. This raises estimated stop
ping distance to 1872 feet for a speed
of 40 miles an hour and to 1872 feet
for so miles an hour.
For this reason excessive speed
ing at night is dangerous and a
menace The speeding driver cannot
get stopped in time after q hazard
Gus object or person may loom up
suddenly out of the darkness
In this connection pedestrians
should remember always to walk
against traffic on the highways. If
the driver of a car cannot see a pc
destrian until too late TO avoid an
accident. man facing him can see

Robert "Red" Cornette, of Ash
land, KY, one of the murderers of
Patrolman Harrison L. Boyd, of Ma
rietta, Jan. IL, 1925, was shot and
killed at Springfield last Thursday
while running for cover after he and
three other robbers had killed two
officers. Cornette was on parole
from the London prison farm from
which place he had been given a
conditional release on Dec. 10, 1886.
1t is stated that the state parole
board had favored him over the
wholesale protest of fraternal, busi-
ness and police organizations and
many individuals of Marietta. 1t is
said that not one of the court Off
cials who hunted Cornette down
and convicted him for the murder
of the Marietta policeman would
sign a parole petition, and not one
of them would accord him any ia
vorable consideration. Judge Thorn
as who heard the case, and Werner
E. Metcalf, then prosecuting attOr-
ney, sent in written protests against
any move for parole.
