The peace movement has not. does

said DIR. Hudson. "Disarmalnent at this

1T would be suicide now for one coun-

stated that it would be confined to Eu-
ropean waters. including the Mediter-
ranean. but this is regarded as rather
vague definition of the area in which
neutral shipping may expect deten-
/ lions.
! 1,OOO-Mile Radius Urged.
1t now appears however. that the prob
able radius Of the allies operations will
be less than that which the United States
government has demanded as a maxi
mum in previous discussions of the rules
! of blockade. At the London naval con-
| ference in 1909. which resulted in the
Declaration of London. the American
delegates. Of which Admiral Stockton
was the naval expert. stood out for a
radius of action of at least LOO miles in
case of blockade. The American dele
cation gave notice of a reservation of
right to this effect when the rules of
blockade were adopted by the confer
ence.
This radius is II is believed. very much
greater than that probably intended by
the allies. whose operations. SO far as
Germany is concerned. probably will be
confined to the English Channel. the
North Sea, and the waters north ana
west of Scotland. 1t is suggested. there
fore. that the United States government
would be unwise in insisting at this time
that the allies confine their operations
within a smaller radius.
Not in Position to Complain.
While the British operation is not
termed officially a blockade. it is be
coming more and more regarded as such
In practical sense. 1t Is concluded.
therefore. that while the United States
government would do well to ask the
allies to define the radius of action pre-
cisely, this government is hardly in a
position to complain il the radius is one
or several hundred miles, up to 900 miles.
The reservation cited at London was
taken on the advice Of naval experts
who reached their conclusion largely as
a result of the changed conditions. which
make blockade running a simpler mat
ter unless the former limits of a block
ade be greatly extended. The State De-
partment in the present situation. is en-
deavoring to shape course diplomat
ically which will square with the prac-
teal interests of the United States i'm
case this country is itself engaged in
some future war and may have occasion
to impose a blockade. 1t is not intended.
therefore. to bring objections against any
procedure by the present belliserents
which it might later be convenient for
the United States government to adopt
in time Of war.
Another instance in the diplomatic his
tory of the United States which Is re-
ceiving considerable attention in the
studies now being made is action taken
in the so-called Delagoa Bay cases.
which occurred during the Boer war.
These involved a situation somewhat re-
sembling that created by the allies in
tenticn of Interfering with noncontra-
band trade through neutral countries to
and from Germany. Articles of Ameri-
can production. both contraband and
band, were seized by the Brit ,
