peached him and he went to trial
before the senate with the certain

urgent for that reason.
"Let us remember that any kind
of love which can be in conflict with

THE Supreme Court having up

barge case, the neutrality powers
of the President, Mr.. Roosevelt let
it be known that he would ask con-
gress to revise the present neutral
ity law to give him broader dis
erection in his relations with foreign
governments. In other words, the
