POPE HAS DOUBTS ABOUT NEUTRALITY Idaho Democrat Tells Luncheon Guests He Will Support Legislation. Senator James P. Pope, Democrat, of Idaho, a member of the Senate Munitions Committee, will support proposed neutrality legislation, but he doubts that such laws will prevent the United States from becoming in- volved in any major war in which a leading naval power is a belligerent. He so expressed himself yesterday at a “neutrality luncheon” sponsored by the National Council for Preven- tion of War, the Washington branch of the League of Nations Association, the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, the Washington Friends’ Peace Committee, the Wash- ington Foreign Policy Committee and the Washington Council on Interna- tional Relations. Senator Pope recently introduced a resolution csiling for entrance of the United States in the League of Na- tions. He told his luncheon audience that “co-operation of the United States with agencies for order and| peace and progress is the permanent way” to peace. Outlining legislation proposed to ban sale of munitions, lending of money or extending of other aid to belligerent nations, Senator Pope de- clared “such restrictive legislation in- volving the surrender of neutral rights, which have for centuries been recognized, may have the effect of provoking war.” Dr. James Brown Scott, president of the American Society of Interna- tional Law, presided. Frederick J. Libby, executive secretary of the Na- tional Council for Prevention of War, said the American peace organizations are backing the neutrality measures. Approximately 200 persons attended the luncheon, which was held in ‘Wesley Hall Restaurant.
