ed upon His Majest1's government that the present condition of AmerI- can trade with the neutral European countries in such that, if 1t does not improve, it may arouse a feeling con- trary to that which has so long eX- isted between the American and Brit- ish peoples. Already 1t Is becoming more and more the subject Of public criticism and complaint There is an increasing belief, doubtless not en- tirely unjustifed, that the present British policy toward American trade is responsible for the depression in certain industries which depend up- on European markets. The attention of the British government is called to this possible result of their present policy to show how widespread the effect is upon the industrial life of the United States and to emphasize the importance of removing the cause Of complaint.

Made Public by Mutual Agreement Between the State Depart

with American goods destined to neu- t1al ports in Europe, which have been seized OH the high seas, taken into British ports and detained sometimes for weeks by the British authorities. During the early days of the war, this government assumed that the policy adopted by the British govern ment was due to the unexpected out break of hostilities and the necessity of immediate action to prevent con- traband from reaching the enemy. For this reason. 1t was not disposed to judge this policy harshly or protest it vigorously, although it was man. ifestly very injurious 10 American trade with the neutral countries of Europe. This government, relying con- 1idently upon the high regard which Great Britain has so often exhibited in the past for the rights of other nations, confidently awaited amend nent of d course of action which de- nied to neutral commerce the freedom to which it was entitled by the law of nations.
 Asks Restriction of Interference.
 "This expectation seemed to be rem dered the more assured by the state ment of the foreign office early in November that the British govern ment was satisfied with guarantees of fered blythe Norwegian, Swedish and Danish governments as to nOn- -expOr- tation of contraband koods when con signed to named persons in the ter ritories. of those governments and that orders had been given to the British fleet and customs authorities to re- strct interference with neutral ves- seIs carrying such cargoes so con signed to verifcation of ships papers and cargoes.
 Should Protect Rather Than interrupt

 The full text follows:
 '''rhe Secretary of State to the Amer
 ican Ambassador at London. Department of State. Washington,
 D. C., Dec 26, 1914.
 The present condition of Amer ican foreign trade. resulting from the frequent seizures and detentions of American carSoes destined to neutral European ports. has become so se- TiouS as to require a candid statement of the views of this government, in order that the British government may be fully informed as to the atti- fude uf the United States toward the policy which has been pursued by the British authorities during the pres ent war.
 Protest Most Friendly Spirit.
 You will, therefore. communicate the following to His Majesty's prin- cipaI secretary of state for foreign affairs. but in doing so you will as sure him that it 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 acquiescence in a course of conduct which this gov ernment cannot but consider to be an infringement upon the rights of American citizens

Rights of HeIliserents.

The government of the United States readily admits the full right of a belligerent to visit and search on the high seas the vessels of American e..,- izens or other neutral vessels carry ing American goods and to detain them When There is Sufficient Evil dence to Justify Belief That Contra. band Articles Are in Their Careoes. but His Majesty's government, judg - ing by their own experience in the past, must realize that this govern ment cannot without protest permit American ships or American cargoes to be taken into British ports and there detained for the purpose of searching generally for evidence of contraband, or upon presumptions created by special municipal enact ments which are clearly at varieacs with international law and practice.

have passed since the war began. the British government has not materially changed their policy and do not treat less vigorously ships and cargoes passing betWeen neutral ports in the peaceful pursuit of lawful commerce, which bel1igerents should protect rath- CT than interrupt. The greater free- dom from detention and seizure which was confidently expected to result from consigning shipments to definite consignees, rather than to order is still awaited.
 Justified by Rules of international
 Laws.
 Tt is needless to point out to His Majesty's government. usually the champion of the freedom of the seas and the rights of trade that peace, not war, is the normal relation be- tween nations and that the commerce between countries which are not bel ligerents should not be interfered with by those at war, unless such inter- ference is manifestly an imperative necessity to protect their national safety and then only to the sextent that 1t is 8 necessity. It is with no lack of appreciation of the mo- gle in which Great Britain is engaged and with no selfish desire to gain undue commercial advantage that this government Is reluctantly forced to the conclusion that the present policy of His Majestys government toward neutral ships and cargoes exceeds the manifest necessity of belligerent and constitutes restrictions upon the rights of American citizens on the high seas, which are not justified by the rules of international law or required un- der the principle of preservation.
 No Discussion Of Contrahand.
 "The government of the United States does not intend at this time to discuss the prOpriety of including cer- tain articles in the lists of absolute and conditional contraband, which have been proclaimed by His Majesty. Open to objection as some of these seem to this government, the chief ground of present complaint is the treatment of cargoes of both classes of articles when bound to neutral ports.
 American Exporters Perplexed.
 Articles listed as absolute contra band, shipped from the United States and consigned to neutral countries have been seized and detained on rhe ground that the coutries to wnich they were destined have not prohibit ed the eXportation of such articles
 Unwarranted as such detentions are, in the opinion of this govern ment American exporters are further perpleXed by the apparent indecision of the British authorities in applying their own rules to neutral cargoes. For example, g shipment of copper from this country to a specified con- signee in Sweden was detained be- cause, as was stated by Great Britain Sweden had placed no embargo on copper.
Norwich bulletin., 1915-01-01

That a consignment to order ee articles listed as conditional contra band and shipped to a neutral pert, raises a legal presumption of enemy destination appears to be directly contrary to the doctrines previously held by Great Britain and thus stat. ed by Lord Salisbury during the South African war.

 his full duty faithfully and the peO-
 Rle as a whole are satisfied with the

 reSents only in 8 small degree the work of the police, will be of inter est:
 For intoxicatfon 70. for breaking and entering and larceny 8, liquor raids ,, 1 assault 4. assault and attempt at rob beTy 3, breaking and entering freight cars 3. insane persons 4. keeping swins illegally ?, keeping liquor for sale illegally 2, revelling ?, sturdy beggars 2. idle and absolute persons 2. murder and abortion i. assault with intent to kill 1. carrying concealed 1 fare 2. defacing a building 1, reck- | less driving automobile 1, oYerspeed- ing automobile 1, habitual drunkard 1 and non- support 1, non-support of family ]; total arrests 119.
 Although Westerly is a liquor H. 1 oensed town and half of the arrests were for intoxication, the total num- | Der is only 70, not an average of two 1 a week for the entire year. not as many as in years when the town was no-license. which is a fair example
 of police control of the business. and l the general efficiency of the police l officers. The posting system does
 not prevail in Rhode Island, yet the police have warned the saloonmen not l to sell intoxicating drinks to certain | individuals who drink to excess and 1 the warning is observed to the letter. This action has a strong tendency to 1 lessen the cases of intoxication that would ordinarily come under police ob- l servation. In explanation of the ar | rests for violation of the liquor laws, not 8 single licensed liquor dealer has
 been arrested for violation of law and | the offenders are keepers of kitchen | barrooms, which the police have suc- 1 ceeded in putting out of business. The
