U. S. STANDS UPON RIGHTS To Prevent Shipments of Munitions to One Country Would be Viola tionof -Neutrality Washington Dispatch, Aug. 10 The United States Government to day dispatched to Vienna a reply rejecting the Austro-IIungarian views recently set forth in a note contending that the great scale on which war munitions are being exported from America to enemies of the Germanic Allies "is not in consonance with the definition of neutrality." The reply may be made public later by agreement between the two Governments. Though framed in diplomatic language uand entirely friendly in tone, it is understood to repudiate flatly the suggestion that the United States has permitted violations of neutralityr and to stand firmly upoi the right of American exporters to send-war supplies to belligerents able to purchase and receive them.

The United States always has held that is an unquestioned right, and high officials have pointed out that to prevent such shipments one country because another was not in a position to receive them would in itself violate neutrality. Precedents, also have been recalled where in wars Grmany and Aus-tiip: imported arms extensively.

To be sure old horny- headed, cross-eyed hard luck perched on the Lumberton bench while the four-leaf clovers, swastikas, rabbit's feet and curly pig tails drap. ed themselves on and around the Red Springs representatives: but after due allowance has been made for this, the concession is ceneral that Lumberton was outplayed 'at every stage of the game.
