there seems so great as thp. inclination to No Great Rich Members of congress in the past have stayed here all through the summer when critical situations have arisen, but the only thing that could prolong the present session is the neutrality bill. The fact that events in Europe seem to be in a state of deadlock between the rival groups has lately developed the impression on Capitol Hill that no great, risks would be taken if the congress adjourned, subject to possible call of an extra session in the autumn whenever European developments required it. President information to what might happen in Europe any day derived from necret In the lait year, he usually known from two to three in advance whenever utirring in Europe that might provide a Naturally, the dent cannot make public what Information he hat, because to do might provoke the very which other may be weking to avert. American ambauadon and abroad, in fact the army and navy intelligence are constantly gather- Ing information to what likely to happen.

The fact, therefore, that Mf. Roosevelt has abandoned for this session his fight to get a neutrality bill through, is clear indication that his information did not forecast an immediate crisis and that nothing would be lost, from an American viewpoint, in delaying neutrality legislation for several months. The argument has been made, on the other hand, that the action of the congress of the United States is itself related to what might happen in Europe. Thus, it is contended by some of lions and a return to international law would be notice to Europe that America is not likely to shut ofl vital raw materials to either side which could pay for it and come and get it. Such a step would be regarded as encouraging to the democracies and, in that sense, dis- couraging to i the dictator states.

"Moral Support" Only For it is an odd commentary on the whole European situation that not a single one of the democratic powers is suspected of any desire for war and that, whether or not singled out as such by formal proclamation, the aggressor states are ggre well-known. Under these circumstances, the knowledge that aggression may possibly be prevented if it is known that American war supplies will be shipped abroad may play a part in stopping war. The administration from the first has tried to make it clear that it wanted to render moral support and did not wish in any way to commit the United States to participation in any war. The President has been represented as believing that, even if a European war did break out, the American people would demand that every effort be exerted to keep the United States out of it. Neutrality discumion been for many months in the of the and it regrettable that the administration did not for passage of a revised law earlier thin Today, the subject can hardly be removed from consideration by a mere nonement of action by congress.
