NYE ASKS FIXED
NEUTRALITY RULES
Senator Tells Young Mems
Forum Evils of War
Profits.

Broad outlines of neutrality pro-
gram, designed to prevent repetition
Of the mistakes that plunged this
country into the World War, we're
sketched last night by Senator Nye
of North Dakota, one Of the leaders
of the congressional fight for man
datory neutrality legislation.
Speaking in the Young Mems
Forum, sponsored by the Y. NJ c. A.,
he stressed the point that the United
States cannot hope to participate eco
nomically in foreign wars and escape
being involved from a military stand
point.
Declaring that leadership of the
most irresponsible, insanest kind in
certain quarters" makes it impera-
tive for this country to face the prob
lem Of how it is going to stay out of
foreign war when these leaders
break loose"
Senator Nye proposed the following
four-point neutrality program:
Establishment by Congress Of
fixed neutrality rules in advance of
the outbreak of war.
Would Curb War Profits.
2-Legislation to make it impossible
for anyone to reap substantial profits
from a war.
3-Legislation to take the profits
out OF preparation for war, thus elm
mating the motive for stimulating
armament races by playing on false
fears.
IA constitutional amendment that
would require referendum by the
people before the United States could
declare war unless this country had
actually been attacked.
Neutrality rules, Senator Nye said,
cannot be laid down after the out
break Of war without in effect be-
coming an unneutral act against one
Of the belligerents.
These neutrality rules, he added,
should include an embargo against any
loans or credits to belligerents by
American bankers, legislation to pre-
vent Americans from sailing on vessels
carrying materials Of war. as in the
case of the Lusitania. and the strictest
kind Of embargo against the shipment
of all kinds of munitions and imple-
ments Of war. In the case of such DO
tential war materials as wheat and
cotton, he said. nations desiring them
should be required to pay in cash and
transport them in their own vessels.
Wartime Income Tax.
He proposed to "take the profit out
Of war" by drafting in advance a war
time income tax which would make it
impossible for any one to make more
than $4,000 year while this Nation
was actually engaged in war
In event of future war; he said,
'1et us make sure that the Govern
ment will have the authority to con-
script property and dollars as we'll as
human lives. Let's do away with the
philosophy that human life is worth
nothing while property is sacred"
He said he supported the Spanish
embargo legislation, but considered it
in adequate. Such legislation, he said,
should apply to all nations, not Spain
alone. He pointed out that munitions
still could be shipped to other countries
and then resold in Spain.
After completing his talk Nye was
questioned by panel composed of
Walter E. Myers, editor of the Ameri-
can Observer: Arthur Deering Call,
secretary Of the American Peace Soci-
ETY.; c. Chester Caywood, attorney;
Bruce Baird, vice president of the Ma
tional Savings & Trust Co., and
Chauncey G. Parker, jr., investment
broker.

Track Event
BY LAYTON CARVER

NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-The an
nual indoor track and field season
will reach its height tonight before
a seu-out crowd of 10000 at Madi-
son Square Garden, where the
National A. A. U. championships
will be run off with a distinct
Olympic touch and possibly the
slightly delayed epidemic of record
breaking.
There will be three Olympic
champions on view, and % Olym-
pic competitors from the United
States, Japan, Hungary, Italy and
Canada, along with the customary
horde of other top-notch perform
ers and lesser lights. To get more
statistical about the proposition,
there also will be 30-odd world
record-holders, a score of national
champions and 13 defending title
holders on hand.
In fact, virtually everybody who
is anybody in track and field has
entered, although no one is quite
certain Of the field for the eve
ning'S outstanding feature, the
l,500-meter run, the confusion cen
tering around Glenn Cunningham,
mile record-holder indoors and out,
who hasn't lost q race yet this
winter.
But he may lose this one to a
severe cold--in other words, not
start at all, and conserve his
energy to anchor medley relay
team.
Certain entrants for the 1900
and the reason for its Importance
include-besides Cunningham if
he does start-Don Lash, two mile
Standard-bearer from Indiana:
Gene Venzke. defending champion
and l 1,500-meter champion indoors;
Luigi Beccali, of Italy, Olympic
1,500-meter champion in 1882: Mix
los Szabo, Hungarian champion.
Arthur Clarke, best of Canadian
mile runners, and Archie San Ro-
mani, the young and musical Kan
san who might wind up whipping
them all. He has stepped a mile in
400.
Earle Meadows, the olympic
pole vault champion, will renew
his very keen rivalry with Japan'5
Ohe, and Cornelius johnson, the
Olympic high jump champion, will
take on all comers in another out
standing feature.

At 81, the man who hung up a
neversurpassed record of 345
strikeoutS in a season, 1892, had
lived a lot of baseball. He and
his wife run a farm now.
RuSie is baldiSh, heavy and slow
in his movements, but when he
crashed the New York Giants line
up in 1890 at the age of 10 he had
a speed ball, the like of which was
never seen before, or since. 1t was
principally responsible for the
strikeout record the following
season.
Giants ''My Team"
He spent all of his 10 years of
major league baseball with the
Giants, which he still considers
my team"
And behind the bat his first two
years was the man Rusie considers
the best baseball player he ever
knew-Buck Ewing.
"He was good at everything"
said RuSie. "He could catch,
hit, run, or throw. His arm was
getting bad, but he didn't have
any trouble pegging a runner
out at second"
The best batter Rusie ever faced.

1t is possible that this after

will change the aspect of things,
but that hardly appears likely,
since both Maryland and Duke
have the same number of men

sessions Of the elevnth annual
ring tournament. in progress at
Ritchie Coliseum. College Park,
Md.
One disturbing feature, insofar
as Maryland is concerned, involves
Johnny Gormley, Terp 175-pound
star. After last nights bout, which
Gormley barely won from Hugh
Rogers, of Citadel, it was said
that the Maryland boy had in
jured his hand and more than
likely will forfeit tonight's final
to Ray Matulewicz, Of Duke, de-
Tending champion. You need two
good hands to face a fighter OF
MatuleWicz'S type.
Duke Holds Edge
AS the tourney this afternoon
enters the semi-final phase, Duke
appears to hold a slight edge over
Maryland, for the reason that
Dukes six men in the semi-final
round seem to face opponents
slightly inferior on the whole than
those whom Maryland'S six must
face. This fact, coupled with the
forecast that Gormley will for
felt to Matulewicz in the final OF
the 175-pound division, means that
the ring experts will favor Duke.
