order prohibiting marlume Commun-
icatiOn with Germany was wirelessed
10 all British WarShipS today and
special orders were issued by the ad-
miralty as to the manner in which
the provisions of the proclamation
shall be carried out at sea. Although
the effect of the proclamation is TO
establish a blockade over the German
coast. no prohibited area Is defined.
According 10 the terms OF the order
British warships at any place upon
the high seas can arrest ships of any
country that might be carrying com
modities consigned FOR or from Ger
man ports.
The government was warmly com
mented by the press today for the
methods IL adopted in making re-
prisals for the German submarine
blockade. Many newspapers believe
that the British BLOCKADE" will prove
the most effective weapon in the
hands OF the allies and that Germany,
through the pressure of starvation and
lack OF war munitions will be forced
into submission. In brief the news
papers express the opinion that the
British blockade" vii shorten the
war by many months.

the United States was certain 10 pro-
test TO England and France against

all trade with Germany be stopped.
was the undivided opinion in official
and diplomatic quarters today.
Omcials in position TO speak for the
administration declined TO discuss the
order for publication because its Of
fetal text had not reached them and
they had no opportunity to analyze
the edict. There was no attempt,
however, to conceal the fact that
England's acdOn was most displeas-
ing.
Many suggestions were heard as 10
the most advisable course for this
government to take. There was a
strong sentiment in favor of waiting
Tor the enforcement OF the order by
the British navy and then making
separate protests in each case of
seizure Of an American ships or cargo.
This method il was argued, would
prove more effective than a general
protest against the starvation block
ade.'
The point Of the order most dis
tasteful TO this country in the view of
many is its restrictions on shipments
consigned TO neutral countries and
only suspected of being intended for
enemy ports. This, it is expected, will
be the chief ground for protest by
this government as the effect on
American trade will be far reaching
and it is contended there is no pre-
cedent for the England's action.

p.m.-The Italian situation is occupy
ing the attention of serious minded
public men. Many newspapers. includ-
ing the koelnische Zeitung, Frank
furter Zeitung and Lokal Anzeiger, give
prominence to long dispatches from
their Rome correspondents, who dwell
upon the insistence with which Italy
is apt to press demands for territorial
compensation for possible Austrian
gains in the Balkans. These dispatches
also emphasize the extent of popular
feeling on this subject, which is ex-
pected to find expression in the policy
OF the government.
So far as can be ascertained, no ne

upon this question have been begun
