ISOLATION PARTY NEUTRALISES ROOSEVELT'S RECENT DECLARATION
— By Telegraph— Copyright).
Rec. May 28, 5.5 p.m. Washington, May 27. The Senate isolationists won an important victory against Mr. Roosevelt's foreign policy to-day when Administration partisans of the. foreign relations committee were forced to agree to a compromise of the Arms Embargo Bill, whereby the President would be given power to declare an embargo only against both belligerents in cases of internal hostility. According to S'enator Johnson, who insisted on limiting the President's power, the adoption of the. amendment retained the status of neutrality of the nation. In the opinion of many Senators, Mr. Norman Davis' pronouncement at Geneva on the American abandonment of neutrality is, "qualified if not nullified."
