Washington, June lit was
stated officially today that there has
teen intimations from Great Britain
recently that reply might be forth
coming soon to the American note of
March 80, protesting against the IL
legality of the Order in Council in
it's restrictions on non-contraband
commerce with Germany through
neutral countries.
Officials have been preparing an
answer to the British notes which
preceded the issuance of the Order
in Council and covering the academic
principles as they were affected by
the law of contraband and continu-
GUS voyage. The United States has
never admitted the right of the Al
lies to detain cargoes of contraband
consigned to neutral ports when enc
my destination is not proved and sew
eral cases still are pending in which
that principle is involved.
The close relations Of the Order in
Council, prohibiting non-contraband
commerce with Germany, to the traf-
fic in contraband articles with neu-
trail countries, has caused officials to
combine all phases of these questions

AMERICAN PROTEST GREAT
BRITAIN WILL BE ANSWERED.

in q single note which Is expected to
be sent as soon as all the data is
obtained, and when the situation
with Germany is clarified. The pos
sibility that Germany may suggest
a modus vivendi whereby submarine
warfare would be abandoned IL the
Allies Order in Council were remov-
ed, and the usual laws of contraband
put into effect is one of the consid-
erations which has delayed the dis
patch of the American note to Great
Britain until the German reply to
the last communication of the United
States is at hand.
Should a new note from Great
Britain arrive in the meantime, the
communication now under preparar
ton to be sent to the Allies would
necessarily be modified accordingly
and officials today were unable to
predict just when some development
in the situation might be expected.
Since the expiration of the period
allowed by the British government
for the free passage through the Al
lies blockade lines of German and
Austrian goods purchased by Ameri-
can importers before March / last,
the State Department has undertake
en- to make some arrangement with
the importing interests in New York
which will facilitate this commerce.
Under the Order in Council which
now applies. all such goods must go
before British prize court. It has
been suggested, however, that an ar
rangement of cargoes in American
ships, with goods coming from Ger
many easily accessible, would reduce
delays to minimum.
