Now that the Senate is about to

Secretary of States pungent re-
marks:
Those who urge the retention
Of the present embargo continue
to advance the view that it will
keep this country out of war
thereby misleading the American
people to rely upon a false and
illogical delusion as a means of
keeping out of war
Il say it is illogical. because
while the trade in arms, ammu-
milton and implements of war is
at present banned, the trade in
equally essential war materials,
as we'll as all the essential ma
terials out of which the finished
articles are made, can continue.
For example, in time of war, we
can sell cotton for the manufac-
ture of explosives, but not the
explosives: we can sell the steel
and copper for cannon and for
shells, but not the cannon nor
the shells: we can continue to
sell to belligerents the high-pow-
cred fuel necessary for the op-
Grafton Of airplanes, but we are
not able to sell the airplanes.
II say it is a false delusion be-
cause continuation of the trade
In arms is clearly recognized
and traditional right of the ma
tionals of neutral country in
time of war, subject only to effec-
tive blockade and to the right of
belllgerents to treat any such
commodities as contraband. The
assertion frequently made that
this country has ever engaged or
may become engaged in serious
controversy solely over the fact
that its nationals have sold arms
to belligerents is misleading and
unsupportable All available evi-
dence Is directly to the contrary"
