Be cause April 6, 1917, didn't find us a mmtary power str0ng as Germany, and naval power as strong as Great Britain, these groups, in speech and in print, attempted to indict the whole nation for what they termed "our criminal negligence." Let us never forget that it was not immediately, by any means, that the full horror of Germany's crimes and purposes penetrated the national con sciousness. ' Not at the time of the German invasion of Belgium, or for months afterward, was the question of a protest by the United States even suggested in Congress' or advocated in the press. The visit 0f the Belgian deputation in September, 1014 moved our sympathies but not our ' resolu tion. As the war progressed, it became increasingly apparent that the neu trality approved by the nation- ar- e forced by President Wilson was men aced at many points by tire refusal o' the imperial government to abide bv international law. As our protest was against the use of force as a means of solving mternatiora1 dis putes, our first logical and noasistem course could have been no other than an honest appeal to the law that we were insisting should he resoected President Wilson following in the footsteps of Washington.
