Neutral rights urged as basis for U S policy in crisis

Professor George W. Kirchwey of Columbia argues that Germany’s claim to violate Belgian neutrality is legally defensible under new international law.

He praises Bryan’s resignation as a stand for policy and calls for active neutrality rather than note exchanges.

Pointers on washing autos from a Salt Lake garage

Car washing is an art learned by experience and careful technique. Do not leave mud on a new car overnight and avoid soaps with linseed oil or harsh chemicals. Use clean water with a soft sponge, rinse grit, and never rub the finish. For thick mud, warm water helps but avoid hot water as it may damage varnish. Let mud soak so it drops off and do not scratch the surface.
