It ‘4s not as if friendliness om the part of the Swedish Govern- ment and Ite representatives toward the cause of Prussanism were something new. Early in the conflict Swedish officials began etretch- ing the limits of neutrality fp all directions to help meet Germany's) wer needs. Nor is it forgotten in the United States that the Swedieh Minister at Washington stood close to Count von Bernstorff during the whole course of Imperial German perfidy which forced this nation to recognize the Imperial German Government as its enemy. Sweden's neutrality has long been in doubt because of the atti- tude of its Foreign Office. That doubt is now confirmed by epecific Moclosures of the way representatives of the Swedish Government at Buenos Ayres let themselves be used to further German war plans, The questions which now arise How much have the Swedish people known of those relations with Germany? How far do they approve them? How long will are these: they support a Government which permits them? Argentina has, of course, a particular grievance in that both and Germeny have flagrantly abused their privileges on The fact that the cable messages aiding Germany were sent, under cover of diplomatic privilege, via London gives Great Britain also just cause for special resentment toward Bweden neutral Argentine soil. Sweden. As for the United States and, indeed, all the Allies, they have obviously the strongest reasons for shutting the embargo gates fighter than ever on exports to Sweden and for reminding the Swedish nation that, at this stage of the struggle, no half-way neu- trality can be tolerated, In the face of what has been revealed, what will the Swedish people do to right themselves? tensive.” was Gante Ana, Taylor had beaten Instead, he tell two mountain as strong & por rene “Let Him Come j and Take Us Op came the Mexican host.
