What the War Moves Mean
(By J. w. r. Mason)


Former European Manager of the
United Press)
New York, March 3.-After pro-
testing against the illegality of Ger
many's submarine war zone declara-
ton. under international law, Eng
land herself breaks the law in order
to retaliate. Germany is attempting
to blockade the British Isles with in
adequate means; England has under.
taken the same illegal activity.
The difference between the two ma
ticns is that Germany holds herself
unaccountable for the safety of ships
cargoes and human lives, while Eng
land gives specific pledge that all three
will be respected.
Germany's submarine attacks on
merchantmen are unprecedented under
the laws of civilized warfare; but
equally there is no modern precedent
i'm the British attempt to bring a max
imum economic pressure to bear on
GERMANY without establishing a block.
ade and nroclaiming an all-inclusive
contraband.
Premier Asquith, himself an eminent
lawyer, dismisses the legal aspect of
the matter by declaring his country
does not intend to become enmeshed
in technicalities. A blockade must
affect all neutrals alike
Germany cannot be blockaded be-
cause the Baltic coast line is safe
from attack. The Anglo French fleet
NAV not enter the Baltic with safety
while the Russian fleet is as fearful
of the German strength in the Bal
tic as the Germans are of England s
North Sea squadrons.
This fact gives an advantage to
Scandinavia over the other neutrals
Legitimate objections, therefore, could
be made
The rights of neutrals will be dis
regarded hv the British procedure, but
not annihilated. While cargoes will
not be permitted to reach Germany
they will not be confiscated. They
will be bought by the British or re-
turned to the shippers. BY refraining
from making all German imports con-
traband, England cleverly evades all
serious disputes with neutrals about
arbitrary confiscations.
A neutral nation probably would go
to war if its ships were sunk and its
citizens drowned. But a neutral ma
tion will not fight to protect trade
