This article focuses on political issues in various countries during the World War I. Nothing more gratifying could have come from the House Naval Committee than its smashing of the five-year naval programme that dangerous, un-American plan to tie up the country for half a decade to a policy which might easily be a great stumbling block to gradual disarmament. Rumania's participation in the war may henceforth be regarded as improbable. Bucharest has concluded commercial treaties with the central powers which are regarded in Allied circles as something more than strictly neutral arrangements.
