We are not at war, and we may not be, though there is no longer any question that to support our principles we are taking a desperate risk of war. Probably the President himself him-self would not disagree with the statement of objectives made by the very isolationist President Hutchins of Chicago University: Uni-versity: "The country wants to defend itself, aid Britain, and stay out of war." There is still a chance of doing all three. We are not neutral in the sense that was understood toward to-ward the end of the last and the beginning of this century. At that time, an idea of neutrality began to be built up which meant a rieid impartiality to both sides in a war amounting to indifference.' The World War taught us the extreme difficulty dif-ficulty of maintaining any such position. But Attorney General Robert H. Jackson set before the Inter-American Bar Association at Havana the manner in which the concept of neutrality has changed. Grotius, the founder of international law, was cited by Jackson as writing, in 1625: "... it is the duty of neutrals to do nothing which may strengthen the side which has the worse cause, or which may impede the motions of him who is carrying on a just war ..." Thus the original concept of neutrality was not one of indifference in-difference or oven of rigid impartiality. This legalistic idea grew up in the late 19th century, the idea that once a war was started, the world was somehow bound to pass no judgment on which side was right, but to treat both precisely the same. The years from 1930 to 1910 were a fine demonstration of the folly of such a view of neutrality. Had the league been able to put effective pressure on Italy, or on Japan, much that has happened might not have happened. Had a united world insisted on saying VNo!" to Germany when it marched back into the demilitarized Rhineland. the whole tragedy enveloping the world today might have been avoided. At any rate, the world has found that it cannot afford to be indifferent when the world's peace is broken by any nation. We all feel the effects of that violation in fact, Jackson scarcely exaggerated when he said that any aggressive aggres-sive war today is "a civil war against the international community." com-munity." Today, any major war affects every country in the world. It is idle and unrealistic for neutrals to pretend disinterest. And until the time comes when a potential aggressor is restrained re-strained by the thought that he will find the whole neutral world aganist him, either actively or passively, there will be small chance that aggressive wars will cease. We do not approve military aggression. While neutral, we propose to help victims of aggression, and help them effectively. ef-fectively. ' It is not war as we see it. It may, admittedly, lead to war. That is the risk we take, but unless some are willing to take it, there is no road to a world free of the constant con-stant overhanging fear of aggression.

I was thinking of some of the Interesting and grimly amusing fables and legends the war has called forth. One written by a student of an eastern university is called: "After Lewis Carroll, Prophet" and is, of course, a parody on a well-known jingle in Alice in Wonderland: Hitler and Mussolini Were walking hand in hand. .They wept like anything to see Such quantities of land. "If this were only ours," said they, "It would, indeed, be grand." "If a million planes with a million bombs Blitzkrieg's it half a year, Do you suppose," Herr Hitler said, "Our title would be clear?" "I doubt It,' Mussolini said, , t And shed a wistful tear. "Oh, Neutrals, come and walk with us," . Herr Hitler did beseech, "A p4easant walk, a pleasant talk. In sight of Dover Beach. ; We long to lend a helping hand To all within our reach." The biggest Neutral looked at him And seemed to shake his head. Meaning to say he did not choose To leave his neutral bed. In fact, he seemed to sulk a bit. His face was rather red. But all the little Neutrals ran To join the strolling pair. They swore that they were very sure These gentlemen were fair. And this was odd, because, you see No gentlemen were there. "The time has come,'' Herr Hitler said, "To talk of many things. Of Lobensraum and Schrecklich-keit. Schrecklich-keit. Democracies and Kings. And why the sea is British sea And whether Bulls have wings." "But wait a bit," the Neutrals critfd, "Before we have our talk. For all of us are nervous. And some of us might balk." "My time is yours," Herr Hitler said. (They turned as white as chalk). "I weep for said, you," Herr Hitler "I deeply sympathize."

"Oh, Neutrals," Mussolini said, "The walk has been quite fun! Shall we be settling down again?" But answer came there none. And this was scarcely odd because They'd swallowed every one. It is reported that the following follow-ing fable caused a diplomatic storm in Yugoslavia, when the tale was told in a bed-time story fashion, the Axis diplomats refraining re-fraining from strong official protests pro-tests only because of present delicate deli-cate negotiations in progress with Yugoslavia. This is the tale: In the fore.st one day the Wolf decided things were not as they should be in the animal world. Some smaller animals were getting get-ting more than their share to eat and the Lion was too completely master of the situation. So the Wolf decided something had to be done about it only those of Wolf blood should be allowed to rule. The WTolf began by gobbling up all the beetles on the grounds that they lacked Wolf blood and were a nuisance. Next came the smaller animals near home. The Lion disregarded their pleas because he himself had eaten some-smaller animals. But when the Wolf came nearer the Lion's den, the Lion challenged the Wolf's right to devour the small animals living near him. Then the Hare joined the Wolf as an ally. The Wolf had the Hare disguise himself before he would accept him. The Fox allied with the Lion, pretended for a time to fight the Wolf, but soon gave up because he was tired and lazy. The Hare in disguise seized the Fox's tail as a trophy, then in pride bepan attacking- the Birds, Fish and Frogs. But when the Hare heard the Lion's roar, he fled. His disguise came off. The other animals discovered dis-covered that he was no Panther; that though he could run backward, back-ward, he was no Deer; that though he wore Eagle's feathers, he was no Eagle. The Wolf finally told him that "If I had you as an enemy, I could soon dispose of you, but inasmuch as you are my ally, I must protect you. The best I can say for you is that at least YOU have a good ally." Laboratory tests show that human hu-man speech is made up entirely of buzzes and hisses.

She wasn't kidnaped. How in the world had that story gotten started? Her head hummed. She was supposed to be in South America. Of course, she'd never so much as booked passage on a liner. But even if someone, somehow, some-how, had run across that damaging damag-ing fact did that make her kidnaped? kid-naped? Then, like a blow, she remembered. remem-bered. Clarence was the one who thought of kidnapings! Oh, the fooL the blundering idiot! This story must have come from hiir She'd disappeared he couldn't find her Weeming said she'd gone to South America and Clarence, shocked because their marriage was only a week away, must have tried to find out where in South America . . . The thoughts flitted through her head so swiftly that only now was the train stopping at the station. The doors opened. She looked at Toby, her head bent to tdke in more of that tabloid story. "Come on, Toby!" Sam pulled at her. "Oh, quick, buy me a paper! The Duchess has been kidnaped. Hallelujah!" Stiffly, Beatrice walked out of the train beside Anthony. Toby had seen that picture. Didn't she recognize it? " Now they were on the platform. Anthony was looking straight ahead, his jaw a hard linev a little bunch of muscles twitching at the corner of his mouth.

She wanted to ask him and couldn't. On the stairs to the street she stumbled. Anthony caught her. His smile was tender. No! He didn't know. He couldn't! Not and smile like that. Dimly, as from a long way off, Toby's voice came to her. "They must be holding her for ransom. Boy! Wait until this news hits the store! The girls will be dancing danc-ing in the aisles! They'll run up a flag on that roof where they were too tight to fix a sun deck for us worn-out, overworked slaves." "Imagine it," Vera murmured. "You'd think, with all her millions, mil-lions, she'd have sense enough to have a bodyguard." "The paper didn't say positively she's been kidnaped," Sam pointed out. "It said 'believed kidnaped." "I hate that dame!" That was Toby's voice. "Ever since that $50,000 debut I've hated her. We slave in the store, while she runs around spending millions. But she's not having any wonderful time now, I hope. I hope they're keeping her in a cave. A nice damp cave some place where she can find out what it feels like to do without " "Toby! Stop gloating! It's ghastly!" That was Vera, tolerant as always, and a little amused. They were on the sidewalk. The corner candy store was closed. The drug store was closed. "No boys with extras. It's a disgrace! I want a paper right now." a T EAT RICE walked beside Anthony, An-thony, the blood hammering at her temples, her knees weak. Couldn't they see on her face what this meant to her? If only they'd look at her, get it over with! "I think it's barbarous," Sam McArdle said. "Kidnaping a girl! Men who would do that should be executed. Why, it's it's " "All right, kidnaping is terrible," terri-ble," Toby admitted. "But, Sam, this is the Duchess, You work for her as well as we do. Doesn't she deserve it?" "She's the kind who'll fall in love with one of the gangsters," Terry said. "Wouldn't that be a laugh? Anything for a thrill, with those girls!" "I hope she gets a good, hard jolt. I hope every one of the gangsters gang-sters holding her looks like a guerrilla, I hope " Beatrice found her voice. "Toby, why do you hate her so?" To her own ears, she sounded shrill and brittle. But she couldn't stop. "What has she ever done to you, besides having been born the granddaughter of Michael Huntington?" Hunt-ington?" PLEASANT VIEW MRS.

Forget it They'll probably find her visiting a friend somewhere. I suppose her guardian guar-dian got excited when he learned she wasn't home ..." Anthony looked startled. "That's -right. Her guardian. You handle a lot of stuff about her in the comptroller's office, dont you?" It struck Beatrice then that Anthony An-thony hadn't said much up to now. What did he look so startled about? CHE fought for self-control. She must act perfectly natural. Without a paper, tonight was a reprieve. In the morning, when they looked at that picture in the tabloid more closely and the other pictures later editions would surely contain At the door, the men said good night. Anthony drew her a little away from the others and pulled her into his arms.' With his arms around her, Beatrice faced the bleak knowledge that tomorrow it would be over. Tomorrow he might hate her.

It will hurt him so terribly . . ." "Darling," said Anthony. "You're shaking." "What's a girl supposed to do in your arms, Anthony?" she forced herself to say, lightly.
