THINKS U. S. DOES NOT
UNDERSTAND BLACKLIST
Less Stringent Than the French
Law, Lord Robert Cecil
Asserts.

LONDON. July 25.-Replying to aues.
tons in the house Of commons, Lord
Robert Cecil. minister Of war trade
said today that the American press
criticism of the British blacklist wal
based largely on misapprehension. The
act under which the statutory list OF
American firms was issued, he said, was
passed last December. and lists referring
to most of the neutral countries al.
ready had been published. Nor were
the provisions Of the act, he added, un.
duly stringent.
The French law, the minister said
provided that all persons of enemy
nationality wherever living were
enemies OF France and that it was IL
legal for Frenchmen to trade with
them"
In the British case, only persons who
had shown themselves hostile to this
country were put on the list Neither
did Great Britain seek by these lists
to interfere with the freedom Of action
Of neutral citizens, Lord Robert said
1t sought only to secure that British
goods and credit be not used for the
support and enrichment of those
actively assisting England's enemies
If any persons were unjustly in.
cluded in the lists, the minister said
their names would be removed and
great care would be taken in applyint
the law to existing contracts. He wat
informed that Germany had taken sim
liar action.

DOES BRIG. GEN. HARVEY
COMMAND D. c. GUARD?
Interesting and Perplexing Prob
lem Considered by Judge
Advocate Crowder.

Whether Brig. Gen. William E. Har-
vey still commands the National Guard
Of the District Of Columbia Is a ques-
ton that Judge Advocate Crowder is
trying to solve.
Gen. Harvey has been mustered into
the United States service. Had he been
mustered out Of state service into the
federal service there would have been
no difficulty in deciding the status. He
would no longer have been in command
of state militia"
AS an officer Of the National Guard
of the District of Columbia, however.
he is commissioned by the United
states government. his commission
bearing the signature of the President:
The problem Is complex. United
States Army regulation requires that
recruiting officers shall not recruit men
who are urnder obligations to serve a
term of service in the state National
Guard. This seems a remote applica-
ton, but no clearer regulation seems
to apply to the case until Judge Advo-
cate General Crowder can investigate
all the references.
