sent to the United states government
a note complaining that the latter has
accomplished nothing In its diplomatic
correspondence with the allies to obtain
for American exporters the right to ship
foodstuffs to tho civilian population IF

intimates also that the United States has
virtually acqulesccd in the British order
in council prohibiting commerce with
Germany.
In view OF those considerations, the
German government then calls attention
to the fact that the allies daily are OBJ
tanning large shipments of arms and
ammunition from dealers in tho United
States and declares that the American
government, while ns,stng on it's legal
right to ship arms to bclligorents, docs
not with equal energy pursue its right
to ship foodstun and non "ontrahahd
