The guild committee holds that

cal liberty of commerce and naviga-
ton" extended by the United States
in its treaty with Spain in 1902 we're
violated by the joint resolution es-
tablishing an arms embargo against

luton was departure from recognized
canons of international law and
reversal of United States policy toward
governments threatened by insurrec-
ton.
Hits Absence of Bowers.
The committee also asserted exist
ing legislation which penalties mill
tary aid to insurgents against
friendly government has been ignored
by the State Department. and criti-
cized the absence of United States
Ambassador Bowers from Spanish ter
ritory.
The report recommends for adop-
ton by chapters of the guild specific
resolutions calling for lifting of the
present embargo against the govern
ment of Spain, vigorous enforcement
of statutes penshzing military aid to
insurgents, and amendment to the
Neutrality Act to exempt from its
operation "a democratically elected

 Stewart was arraigned in city court this morning and Q charge of assault with a dangerous weapon was continued for two weeks.
