Gals determined today to press inofrmal
negotiations to secure an agreement that
would release all the vast quantities of
American-bound commodities now lying

His Majesty's government is ready in
such cases to examine the facts in a spir-

In line with this assurance the foreign

are forwarding to London affidavits COW

which they allege that hardships are be-

millions of dollars. and undoubtedly will
precipitate extended diplomatic corre-

Investigations

A study of trade conditions between
the United States and neutral coun-
tries has been made by the State de-
partment, and investigations Of Scan
dinavian and Dutch trade by the de-
partment Of commerce.
A report from Consul General Skin
ner at London. also has been received
on the foreign trade Of Great Britain
for the six months ending June 30. It
shows that exports to the Scandina-
Wan countries and Holland have in
creased since the war began along the
same lines as American reports to
those countries. The State department
will contend that there can be no
more assumption that American goods
going to these neutral countries are
bound for Germany, than that British
goods exported there, will reach Great
Britain's enemies.
London Report Figures
The London report showed that
while great Britain's exports decreased
materially in the first six months of
1915 as compared to the same period
of 1914, imports increased. Re-exports
during June. the first month during
which the British order in council was
fully effective, showed an increase Of
$2.904,s38.
In cotton, one Of the much disputed
articles in trade. Great Britain's i'm
ports increased by 1852 centals Of

cotton Consul-general Skinner said:

five times as much cotton in June, 1915.
