THAT MYTH ;\«AJV
So-iator lliuui^ck. of .V j rusk a,
foremost iu urging th.U an embargo
b« placed upon tlu- shipments of
anna and ammunition to the allies,
in & recent speech in the senate
revived the often exploded myth |
»hat during the war with Spain!
we urofcsteU against Gormany sup
plying Spain with arms and am
munition end that sucli shipniout
were stopped in coasoquoao
Dr. White, who I ho Aui- ■
orican ambassador at 1! . a dur
ing the Spanish w..r, h:is n
ly given the story flat i
diction. The only authority wr ;i
comes from a garblod ver=-ioa ot
iiu incident related iu Dr White's
autobiography, w herein he tell*
that he -ecurtd the with > l.'.iug of
clearancu papers frcrn a vessel
about to dipart from a German
port. This was done because of i
the belief that the vusjil was ia
twaded to become a warship. It
proved otherwise and the vessel
with her cargo of war luuiiitie.is.
was promptly released. Saya Dr.
White;
"Our agents at Hamburg in
formed rue later that during the
outlre wax vessels carrie I ammuni
tion from ■German ports h~-:. t<>
Spain and to the Unit d S:at€6."
The Spanish army w.«s equipped
with its tuas and ammunition from 1
Germany. We ourselves drew war
supplte- from Germany. The qu.s
*ion oT the perfect legality and
propriety, cf suca s'afpme! :^ to
belligerents was not raised during
the entire war, it was never
raised because cvtry existing a i
