Is it the purpose in bringing these British children here and scattering them over the United States to create another great source of propaganda to involve us in the European war? Our present neutrality laws that were urged upon the Congress by the President and his administration forbid American ships to enter the waters of these warring nations. This bill amends our neutrality laws to permit American ships to go into these waters to bring refugee children to the United States to be cared for by American families who are willing. to take the children. provided each and all these warring nations agree that this be done. In other words. Italy and Germany must agree that these ships may enter the harbors of Great Britain.
