4. Stalematew By September 1914, the war had reached a stalematestalemate,

neither side was able to gain an advantage.w When a French and British force stopped a German advance

near Paris, both sides holed up in trenches separated by an empty “no man’s land.”“no man’s land.” Small gains in land resulted in huge numbers of human casualties.

w Both sides continued to add new allies, hoping to gain an advantage.

Modern Warfarew Neither soldiers nor officers were prepared for the new,

highly efficient killing machines used in WW I.

w Machine guns, hand grenades, artillery shells, and poison gas killed thousands of soldiers who left their trenches to attack the enemy.

w As morale fell, the lines between soldiers and civilians began to blur. The armies began to burn fields, kill livestock, and poison wells.

The effect of the war upon the United States will depend upon what American citizens say and do. Every man who really loves America will act and speak in the true spirit of neutrality, which is the spirit of impartiality and fairness and friendliness to all

concerned.

The people of the United States are drawn from many nations, and chiefly from the nations now at war. It is natural and

inevitable that there should be the utmost variety of sympathy. Some will wish one nation, others another, to succeed in the

momentous struggle.

I venture, therefore, my fellow countrymen, the United States must be neutral in fact, as well as in name, during these days

that are to try men's souls. wilson neutrality1

The US believed it had the right to trade with the warring nations and they would respect our neutrality…….Didn’t happen! The German submarine warfare and British

blockade violated our freedom of the seas and neutrality.
