Public opinion at the present time seems to be strongly against our par- ticipation in an- other world conflict. In August 1935 Congress passed a Neutrality Act and again passed it in an amended form in April 1937. Many critics, however, believe that our interests are so world wide that even this law will not p::vent our becoming irvolved in any general war but our present intent seems clear. We wish to keep out. But let us assume that our law will be effective. Will its effect ve to aid us in maintaining a really neutral po- sition, one in which we do not assist either side? The Act has a cumber of sections but the ones upon which its defenders most rely are ‘he “casi and carry” sections. These provide that in case the President of the United States proclaims that a state of war exists b2tween two or more foreign States, American citizens may neither sell nor ship any commodities to the belligerents. It is possible, how- ever, for these belligerents or their citizens to buy commodities in the United States and to export them in other than American vessels, provided they pay cash. Loans and credits are forbidden. Who will be helped and who will (Address questions to the au! Affairs iOR PATTERSON of Political and Social Science be injured by this “cath and that it will help those belligerent countries who can provide cash and who can keep trade rot: : open. Sup- pose, for example, that Great Britain is at war and can pay cash and have complete contro: of trade routes. Sup- pose also that her enemy cannot. It is argued that in that event Great Britain would gain and her enemy would lose. This leads many to in- terpret the law as one that would help Great Britain and injure her enemies. a gesture of friendship to Gieat Brit- ain, disguised as an act of neutrality. Similarly in a conflict between Japan and China, the gain would seem to be for Japan. But this coes not tell the whole story. If we had no neutrality law at all and if any country had control of the seas and wad cash for payments, she would still have an advantage just as the Allies had an advas.tage over Germany during the World War. This at once suggest: that although our law would deprive Great Britain's enemy of our help, it really does not change the situation much with re- gard to England, Only to the extent that the prohibition against loans and credits is significant will the law hamper Great Britain. Many believe..as 1 do that th a war involving several or many ime portant countries. War is a tragedy and solves no important world prob- lems. Nevertheless all parts of the world are now so interdepenuent that a disturbance anywhere involves all countries. American commerce and American investments are to be found verywhere.
