Further on the North Carolina
Representative said:
"On the 29th of February the
President, knowing that the McLe-
more resolution was pending, learn
ing that the charge was being circu-
later in foreign capitals that Con-
gress would, upon vote, repudiate
the American contention, asked the
Committee on Rules to take such
action as would insure an early
vote"
Senator Harrison of Mississippi,
then a member of the House, also
joined in that debate, urging the
House to stand by the President.
The present flood of mail COM
ing to members of Congress for and
against repeal of the existing arms
embargo also had it's counterpart
in 1916. At that time the agitation
centered around whether an embar-
60 should be applied. In January,
1916, Senator Kenyon of Iowa pre-
sented a petition bearing a million
signatures, urging Congress to place
a ban on the expectation of arms.
The petition was in a series of
rolls of paper, each 40 feet long,
that filled a row of baskets as it
was brought into the Senate. -
Now in Effect.
The approaching neutrality de-
bate will start with an embargo
already in effect, but limited to
arms, ammunition and implements
of war-not raw materials or other
commodities essential to belliger-
ents. And, while the main proposal
of the administration Is repeal of
the embargo, it would not mean
going back to reliance on the rights
and principles of international law
contended for in the last crisis. On
the contrary, the proposed bill out
lined yesterday by Chairman Pitt
man of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee would require the pur-
chasers to take title to the goods
before they are shipped and would
prevent shipments to belligerents in
American vessels, either of arms or
basic commodities like oil or grain.
An interesting sidelight on this
neutrality contest is the fact that
three of the men who were leading
figures in Congress in the history
making days of 20 to Is years ago
have descendants preparing to take
part in the approaching debate.
They are Senator Clark of Mis-
souri,, whose father, the late Champ
Clark, was Speaker of the House in
1916; Senator Robert M. La Fol-
lette, jr., who has succeeded his
father in the Senate, and Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts, whose
grandfather, the late Henry Cabot
Lodge. was ranking Republican on
the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee in 1916.
There are six present Senators
who were members of that body
during the debates of 1916, namely,
Ashurst of Arizona, Borah of Idaho,
Norris of Nebraska, Pittman Of Ne
vada, Sheppard of Texas and Smith
of South Carolina.
