...should have Flume. President Wilson told Italy quite frankly that he believed she should not have Flume; and by far the greater portion of that group of Americans who follow foreign affairs supported President Wilson. Lack of access to the sea is one of the greatest incentives for a nation to wage war; it dominated Russian policy for a century and a half. Flume is the chief and almost the only port in the long expanse of shallow beaches between Trieste and Montenegro. The question is not one of Flume, but of the hinterland of Flume. Is the port more...

...interference with the lawful and pressing purposes of the law that an immediate check is required to save the country. I wholly disagree with the arguments of the Government that the First Amendment left the common law as to seditious libel in force. History seems to me against the nation.
