Washington Letter on McLemore Resolution and Submarine War Issue
The House voted to table the McLemore resolution urging warning to Americans about traveling on armed vessels. The Senate earlier revised the measure to cite a German submarine sinking an armed merchant vessel as a casus belli. The piece discusses votes, party splits, and debates over international law and neutrality as the administration’s submarine policy is critiqued.
