i. WARNING
TO EUROPE
BY ROBERT A. McGILL
International News Service

A stern warning to foreign ma
tions that the United States will
play no favorites in carrying out
its neutrality program was issued
today by Senator Pittman ID of
Nevada
Provoked by rumors that Eng
land and France will receive
preferential neutrality treatment
if forced into war. the chairman
of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee. stated that no eX-
emption will be granted any for
eign nation when a permanent
policy is adopted.
The rumorS were based on re-
ports that Walter Runiciman,
president of the Board of Trade
of England, had received assur-
anceS following his conference
with President Roosevelt that
Great Britain would be granted
free access to American supplies.
Also, it was reported in a for
eign press dispatch that Georges
Bonnet, of France, prospective am
baSSador to the United States, had
been instructed to prevail upon
the President to prevent passage
of mandatory or unconditional,
neutrality legislation.
Pittman said:
II am satisfied the President
never would have approved the
amendments l have suggested to
the neutrality act had he had
any such program in mind. In
my opinion, it would be utterly
inconsistent with the announced
policy of nOninterference with
the foreign affairs of any other
government.
81 am satisfied that the PreSi-
dent considers all this problem,
not so much neutrality legisla-
ton as American legislation for
the protection of the peace of
this country"
Pittman also doubted the reports
that M. Bonnet had been in
Structed to seek a modification of
the proposed neutrality program.
The committee meets Monday
to consider amendments to the
present act. Pittman anticipates
little trouble in bringing together
groups sponsoring the Administra-
tion bill and those sponsoring the
cash and carry program of Senator
Clark CD of Missouri, and other
members of the old Senate muni-
tionS committee He did forecast
a committee fight between mem
bers who insist upon the main
tenance of the freedom of the seas
headed by Senator Borah, ranking
Republican on the committee and
an authority on foreign affairs.
