Is Legal
BY ED. L. KEEN.

(StaT Correspondent United Press }
LONDON. July l3-Great Britain
acted on strictly legal principles
when she abandoned the Declaration
of London as code regulating
blockade and rights OF neutrals and
belligerents al sea, Lord Robert Ce-
ell, minister OF blockade, told the
United Press in an exclusive inter
view today.
The British minister answered
several assertions made by the Ger
man chancellor IN recent state
ment regarding the Declaration OF
London.
Apparently. the chancellor re-
CARDS the Declaration OF London as
charter OF freedom OF seas" said
Lord Robert.
What are the true facts? The
Declaration OF London was merely
code endeavoring TO reconcile GER
tain contradictory theories OF inter
national law. II specifically permit
ter the destruction of neutral prizes
Il did not repeal the well-estaolish'
ed rights of belligerents against en-
envy commerce.
THE chancellor maintains that
the declaration laid down the prin-
ciple that wars should be conducted
solely on land or before the actual
ports OF the enemy. This is quite
untrue. There was no waiver OIL
the right OF a belligerent to exer'
else on the high seas the right ne
possesses under international law
