 "Is the government convinced that this blacklist policy is such as to jus tify the risk of multiplying disputes, possibly generating reprisals, with the United States and of identifying our selves with 8 doctrine of international law, to which the American govern ment is now and will be long after the war resolutely opposed? Our experi- ence in the far east ought by now to give us some guidance in this matter"

HIGH PURPOSE IN
 ]. BLACKLIST PROTEST
English Paper AsCribes No Ulter-
 for Motive to United States

London, Aug. 1, 10 a. m.-Tn a long editorial article on America and the
 Blacklist" the Manchester Guardian says that Englishmen should try to aunderstand the point of view of the sAmer1can government in protesting Nagafnst the extension of the blacklist
 to the United States
 N The Guardian explains that Amer
 51can objection to these proceedings is 1.-TWO 1old: First, that they do serious sinJury to American trade; and second, 8that they embody a doctrine in inter- snat1onal law which is at once new and
 Spernicious.
 Tt is the common belief that the
 first of these grounds-damage to ma-
 zterial interests-is the real driving
 force behind the present protest and similar protests which preceded it. EDoubtless the individual person or firm (which suffers is concerned pretty ex- clusively for it's loss of money, but we ado serious injustice to the American Igovernment if we imagine it is not
 aconcerned for something higher" The editorial then explains that the American government is concerned lover the protection of the existing Erights of neutrals against the gradual aencroachment brought about by the sextGencieS Of the present war.
 The Guardian says the American
 Hgovernment desires not only to protect
 There and now it's own subjects but also I is anxious to stigmatize and if possible lprevent becoming established a theory sof international law which it believes Ito be retrograde and vicious.
 The editorial then proceeds to con- lsider the actual policy of the black
