Censorship Of Mails Causing Quite

London.-The foreign office has
published the text of the note hand
ed to the American ambassador re-
plying to certain American complaint
against the British censorship of the
mails. The reply is confined to the
few specific allegations made in the
recent American note. 1t is stated
that the formal answer to the general
arguments advanced by the Washing
ton government is still under consid-
GRAFTON by the entente allied govern
ments and will receive reply in due
course.
Great Britain's memorandum re-
garding mail seizures was received
at the state department in Washing
ton and will be delivered to Acting
Secretary Polk. 1t was understood the
note, which is about 400 words long,
deals only with specific complaints,
avoiding discussion of the principles

Washington.-Indic that Of

ity of taking economic retaliatory
measures against Great Britain for

firms and individuals under the trad

parent in administration circles here.
Definite conclusions and plans were
said not to have developed, but it was
intimated that action of that kind
might be determined upon after the
state department learned more of the
plans of the British government 1t
is stated positively that the United
States would take steps of some sort
to prevent injury to American con-
Germs through operation Of the act.

PRESIDENT WILSON AND HIS
CABINET CONFER ON THE
ENGLISH BLACKLIST.
ALLIES UNITED IN THE PLANS
If They do Officials Realize Many
Difficulties Confront Firms Placed
on Blacklist and Diplomatic
Problems Will Come Up.

Washington.-The administration Of
ficials are preparing to take vigorous
action to prevent injury to American
firms through Great Britain's promul-
cation of commercial blacklist un-
der the trading with the enemy"
act
President Wilson told callers he is
much concerned over the pOssibili-
ties of the British order, and there
are indications at the state depart
ment that some step may be taken
soon unless reply is forthcoming to
the informal inquiries on the subject
made by Ambassador Page at Lon
don.
Information reaching the depart
ment indicates that the allied nations
are planning for united action along
the lines of the trading with the
enemy act. Officials realize that such
a development might greatly aggra-
vate the difficulties confronting firms
placed on the blacklist and compli-
cate diplomatic negotiations on the
subject.
Principle Is Obnoxious.
The principle of boycott of firms
incorporated under American law to
engage in legitimate trade is particu-
larly obnoxious to officials here. In
formation is desired as to just how
far the British trading with the en-
envy act will og beyond the primary
effect upon the British merchant. If
it is to affect any American individ-
ual firm or corporation doing bust
ness with a neutral country, it is be-
lieved certain insistent representa-
tions will result
Precedents in Civil War.
The lengths to which the federal
government went during the civil war
in prohibiting American citizens from
trading with the confederate states
may be taken as a measure by the
department in arriving at conclu-
sion as to how far it is willing to
admit legality Of the act.
