ment of contraband goods in full
force and effect.
Americans, take them by and
large, are anxious to keep out of
European wars-particularly in view
of what happened in 1917-18. 1t Is
this desire which is responsible for
the enactment of the present neu-
trality laws. 1t is responsible for the
strong opposition which has de-
veloped in Congress to repeal of the
mandatory embargo provision of the
present law-both in the House and
Senate. The House refused to re-
peal this provision outright, by a
considerable vote. The Senate For
eign Relations Committee, by a ma
jority of one, has declined to take up
neutrality legislation until "the next
session."
Should war develop between the
dictator powers-Germany and Italy
and Japan-against the so-called
democratic powers-Great Britain
and France and their various
allies-the next session" of Con-

far to amend the neutrality act,

to the isolationists in this country
that steps could be taken to prevent

the Chief Executive. Congress, on
the other hand. wants to keep con-

President Roosevelt. it is rumored,
will send message to Congress at
an early date, demanding some
thing be done to break the iron
bands which would prevent the
sale of war materials by the United
States to Great Britain, France and
others in the event of war abroad.
The issue has been so definitely
made on Capitol Hill, however,
that action is doubtful. A bold rec
ommendation that all neutrality
laws be repealed, however, might
meet more favorable response. Had
it been made earlier, it would have
