THE CONTRABANO PLAN


Tn. Hague, Aug THE British
proposition for the abolition OF con-
traband was adopted In committee
yesterday by 25 votes to 5. The rep
rcsentatives OF the United States.
Germany, France. Russia and Mon
tenegro. expressing themselves as
opposed TO the measure, and Japan,
Spain. Panama, Greece and Rou-
mania abstaining from voting. There
were also ten absentees.
In explanation OF the American
vote In opposition, Joseph H. Choate
declared it was the plan OF the Uni
ed States to reduce In every posi- Bile
way the objects that shall be called
Gontraband OF war, but to go further
than this now would be a violation
of a ong-established custom. The
condition, Mr. Choate said, will
create many uncertainties regarding
the rights and duties OF neutrals and
belligerents, prove more injurious to
the commerce or the "orld tnan lhe
existing custom, and contribute moth
ing. to the interest of peace
The British proposition on contra
band, together with the proposals
submitted by the United States, has
been sent to committee for eXamina-
ton. The American proposal divides
lutte and conditional.
The Belgin proposition, that the
inhabitants of an occupied territory
should\not be compelled to partici-
their country, was adopted by a vote
