NO FURTHER INQUIRY

Peiping, Sept, 17.
It is learned that no new en- quiry into the, circumstances sur- rounding the murder of Gareth Jones has yet been undertaken, the first enquiry being not yet completed.
At the time of the murder the Embassy was making representa- tlons to the Chinese Government requested an enquiry and those concerned punishment of

creed, of the vast bulk of Ameri- cans. A few months ago the Senate refused adherence to the World Court. Now it is engaged in perfecting bills which seek to assure aloofness when the temptaandersstrábbi tion to interfere is uppermost namely, in the unhappy event of a foreign war, Yet the American remains quite as ready as other cations to express his opinion
about another country's affairs.
If he spoke his mind only in the privacy of his own home, in con- versation with his friends, there would be no cause for concern. The American is a free agent. What he thinks and says is, within the sanctions of a law-abiding scciety, his own private business.
This freedom, however, does not clothe either the governor of the legislative body of a state. They In are public persons.. officials. virtue of the face to which they have been elected, their acts im plicate an entire commonwealth. This is the situation crested when a governor or a state law-making body enters a protest officially against the internal policies, how- ever objectionable, of the German Government. It would be less than candid not to recognize that this protest does coincide with the feelings of millions of Americans with respect to events in Germany. But Americans hesitate to give official.. expression to their senti- ments in a way that might help to heal international situations. should there not be greater hesita- tion between feeling and official expression where the action must Irritate without helping? "
Lately there has been much dis- cussion over the invasion of state affairs by the Federal Government. Here is a converse illustration of the Invasion of federal affairs by a state. The constitutional pro- hibition on the states to make any Treaties or alliances is an explicit reservation of foreign affairs to the domain of the ́ Federal Govern ment. That fervent States re-
