quent siezurea and detention OF An1er}.
can cargoes destined to neutral Euro{
pean ports has become SO serious q
to require q candid statement OF the
views Of this government In ordcr
that the British government may IA
fully Informed as to the attitude of
the United States toward the policy
which has been pursued by the Brit
ish. authorities during the preserl
war.
"You will, therefore Communicated
the following 10 His Majesty's princfz%
pal secretary OF state for foroirn AZ.
fairs, but In doing so you viii assure
him that 1t Is done in the most
friendly spirit and In the belief that
frankness will better serve the con-
tinuance Of cordial relations between
the two countries than silence. which
may be misconstrued into acquies-
cence In q course OF conduct which
this government cannot but considsr
to be an infringement upon the righie
Of American citizens.
