Washington. March 2.-While Presi-
dent Wilson indicated to-day that the
United States would send n note of
inquiry tn Great Britain and France
to learn how they proposed to carry
mination to prohibit commercial in
tercourse by sea with Germany, such
action. 1t was later stated, probably
will be deferred until replies are re-
ceived from Great Britain and Ger
many to the American proposals look-
ing to an abandonment of submarine
warfare on merchant ships and unre-
stricted passage Of foodstufs to civil
ian populations of belliEerents.
~Gerrnany@s reply rs described In
press dispatches created a favorable
impression among officials. but until
the text is officially received, no com
ment will be made. The attitude of
Germany gave rise TO the belief in
some official quarters that a basis for
Il solution of the maritime situation
might yet be reached through tho new
note.
What Great Britain's reply will be
is dependent to some extent on the at
'iNaoo va iVi Nv nnOll SHt Is con-
sulting. There have been official in
timations. however. that England
would flatly reject the proposal for the
shipment of foodstuffs and other con-
ditional c~ontraband to Germany.
THREAT Is DISCUSSED.
The Anglo-French notes outlining
the intention Of the allies to stop all
w Germany and neu-
trail countries occupied the attention
of official Washington to-day. Presi-
dent Wilson told inquirers just before
the abine met that he could not de-
fine the attitude Of the American gov.
lr digested the contents of the COM
munications, though apparently they
seemed to establish n blockade. He
pointed out that the notes had merely
defined in general terms a policy to
he pursued o. the allies, without stat
ing the means of enforcing the policy.
To make this clear for the United
States, the President added. might
necessitate further correspondence with
Great Britain and France.
The President made clear hi. belief
that while the conditions of war might
have changed. no nation had a light to
chang the rules of war. From this II
was generally inferred that the Ameri-
can government would insist on a posi-
ton frequently expressed by It's officials.
that whatever might be the violations Of
the customs of war as between helliger-
ents, this could not affect the status Of
international law as W the United
states and countries with which she was
at peace,
The general pressure OF business Incl
dent to the 0Ausing Of Congress occupied
the cabinet meeting for the most part.
but the notes from Great Britain and
France n their effect on American ex-
ports was discussed to some extent.

objection from the United States, no
