THE u. 8. WAR

Many people are disturbed todoy
by the fact that the present position OF
the United Stotes in relation to the vol
in Europe Is neither traditional neutrol-
ity nor war. II Is described as "non.beI.
~liaereney," "ormed neutrality" mot
war" and other Phrases. and Ne think
Of it as something utterly strange and
without precedent.
That is because we incline to think
Of todoy's situation in terms Of the
World War. II We would 90 back oeoin
q little farther in American history. we
could recall that there wos q period
N7o8-l8OO) when the United .Stotes
did not know whether or not it wos at
war. War was never formally declored,
but it had q lot Of similarity to war when
the new American frieote, C~onstelIo-
tion, wos sovogely fighting ond coptur-
ina the French ship-of-wor l1nsureente
off the island Of Nevis in the West In
dies.
Historians usually refer to this as

It is interesting to reflect that Pres
ident Roosevelt is especially we'll in
formed on this period Of American his
tory, and was instrumental q few yeors
oeo in having published an absorbing
collection OF popers relating to it. Here
is how the United Stotes once fought
in what was almost like, but never for
molly, q war;:
Relations with France had been un-
satisfactory, and President Adams coll
ed home American diplomats who had
been pushed around and very badly
treoted in France. ~ will never send on

without assurances that he will be re-
ceived, respected, and honored as the
representative Of q free, powerful and
Independent nation"
French naval ships seized Ameri-
can vessels carrying supplies to Eng
land, which was at war with France.
American indignation mounted, and q
frantic preparedness compoien was
launched. Three frieotes and 80 smaller
vessels were built, and ordered to pro-
tect American commerce, yer il that
implied fighting with French ships. An
army was hostiIy i%nprovised and Wosh-
ineton was recalled from retirement to
command it.

VOTERS. in seq fights to protect Ameri-
can commerce. Yet neither country for
moIIy declared war on the other. In
1900 q treaty accepted by both notions
put an end to the controversy.
Was 1t q war? Historians have not
yet decided.
Has President R~ooseveIt's corefuI
study Of this period convinced him thot
there would be nothing new. nothing
without precedent, in q decision to pro-
teet American ships sailing to q beIIie-
erent country? It was done in 1879; and
done without formal val resulting.
Could it be done again? And is the
