“I am not inclined to be too cocksure about what America thinks.” said Dr Eugene Schmitt, a dental lecturer, of New York, who is visiting Christchurch, when he was asked what he considered was the general American attitude to European affairs. He said that he had seen statements made by Americans arriving in New Zealand, giving their opinions of what America would do in the event of a war, but they were not- to be relied upon. He said that it was not to be considered too significant that the American neutrality law was now being reconsidered, as it would normally come up for reconsideration at this time of the year in any case.
