Why asbould an American citizen be permitted to In- volve his country in war by travelling on @ belligerent ship when he knows that the ship will pass through a anger zone?

I do not know just how far the Government con go in actually preventing Ameri- cans from travelling om belligerent ships, but I believe the Government should go as far as it can, and in case of doubt it should give the benefit of the doubt to the Government, But even if the Government could not le- gally prevent citizens from travelling on belligerent ships it could, end in my judgment should, earnestly ad. vise Amerlean citizens not to risk themselves, or the peace of their coun- try, and T have no doubt that these warnings would be heeded, President ‘aft advised Americans to leave Mox- foo when inaurrection broke out there and the President has repeated the advice.
