DUNNE PLEADS STRICT NEUTRALITY liineis Statesman Speaks on War at St. Patrick’s Gbservance Cincinnati, Ohio, March 18.—As- serting that the European belliger- ents in tramping on the rights of neu- Lrals had made it difficuit to keep the United States from being embroiled, Geovernor Edward F. Dunne of [linois last night pleaded with *hyphenated Americans” to aid the administration in the crisis by refrain- Ing from the public expressin of whatever sympathies they may have . With nations at war. Speaking at a St. Patrick’s Day celebration of the Irish Fellowship club, Governor Dunne said that persons of foreign birth or lineage in America should place loyalty to this nation ahove all else. Days of Efforts, He spoke of the pride Irishmen have in the part they took in the up- building of the Uniteq States and as- countries. “It is now the supreme duty of the statesmen in Washington to keep this country from being em- broiled in the conflict in Europe,” as- gerted Governor Dunne. “Day by day the belligerents are trampling on ithe rights of neutrals and making it almost impossible to keep our country from entanglement. In this critical situation it is the duty of every Ameri- can citizen to uphold the president in his efforts to preserve peace between this country and the warring nations. Never in recent history was there greater need of moderatton, tact, and diplomacy of American statesmen and of loyalty by its citizens. Stupendous Political Blunder. “To allow this nation to‘become en- Zulfed in the FKuropean cataclysm would be a stupendous political blun- der, if not a political crime, which the patriotic president and the secretary of state will not commit, Let not then American citizens of any race embarrass our officials at this time by public expression of any sym- pathies or by participating in or- ganized efforts to give contraband as- sistance to any of the belligerents. “Hands off for Europe, hands up For America, should be our watchword.

The rifling of the gun burns out under the blast. Drops of melted steel are visible in the bore after each shot and it is said that the life of the Queen Elizabeth’s 16-inch weapons is less than 100 shots each. After that the gun is so inaccurate as to be vir- tually useless. Navy gun designers have overcome that obstacle somewhat, it is said, with the new American 16-inch gun; but the life of the gun is still far below that of the 14-inch.
