American commerce by admitting to

ropean beligerents viii prove futile is
the statement of high authorities on
international law in Washington. The
councils of the nations have hereto-
fore foreseen just such a situation. as
now exists where one nation seeks
profit for itself and transportation for
its goods by inviting vessels of bell
ligerent countries to shift to a neutral
flag and thus escape the ordinary con-
sequences of war. Consequently the
most stringent provisions have been
made in international agreements for
meeting this situation. These provts-
ions all tend To make such emergency
transfers well nigh impossible by de-
claring them to be of characzr
which the belligerents need not recog-
nize as valid AID permitting the bell
Egerents TO treat vessels thus hastily
transferred from an enemy to neu-
trail flag as enemy vessels.
The form OF American law has little
