WHY ALLIES ABANDONED
LONDON DECLARATION
Did Not Meet Modern War Condi-
tions, Says British Foreign
Office Note.

LONDON, July 15.-The British for
eign office has addressed note to neu-
trail governments explaining the rea-
sons which prompted the abandonment
of the declaration of London The
declaration was abrogated by an order
in council published on July 8. and a
similar decree was issued in Paris on
the same day.
The present British note explains
that the entente allies adopted the
declaration of London at the begin
ming of the war because, in their anx-
iety to conform to international law,
they believed the declaration provided
a suitable digest of principles and a
compendium of working rules
