Will Not Put an Embargo on Arms. Wasbiugton. April 22. The Cnited States will not apply an embargo on arms or change its neutrality laws during the progress of the war. This is the answer of President Wilson to the memorandum submitted byCount von Kems'orff, the German am bassador, impugning the good faitb of the Cnited States in the enforcement of itb neutrality. Tbe note, which was drafted by Counselor Lansing and amended by the president, is a calm and dignified repudiation of the charge made by tbe ambassador. It rejects the ambassador's proposals to establish an embargo on arms and to use this country's export trade as a means to compel Fngiand to permit foodstuffs to reach Germany. It proclaims the policy of the Cnited States to be as it has been, tbe upholding of Its rights as against any and all belligerents and the enforcement of the laws of neutrality which were in force at the tune the war began. Moreover, the president asserts that any change of the principle Involved, such as the German ambassador suggested, would be a direct violation of American neutrality. The communication is courteous and polite The president shows his viewthat it would have been more in keeping with the proprieties had the ambassador mentioned several matter connected with the general subject of American neutrality, which he failed to mention; and that tbe ambassador stepped beyond the hounds when he sought to take up with the Cnited States questions this government discussing with Great Britain.
