NOR was without any foundation.
Direct relation between the British
mail seizures and black listing of
American firms was pointed out by
state department officials today.
The extreme Irritation which the
administration feels over England's
delay in answering the mail note. Is
partially because 1t was through the
alleged illegal practice Of the infor-
nation on which the black list was
compiled The preliminary mail re-
ply received is altogether unsatisfac-
tory, because it ignores the conten.
ton OF principle expounded in the
American note and deals with only
specific cases which have no immedi-
ate bearing on the demand for re-

At the state department, officials
today smiled at stories to the effect
that the government would provide
government vessels to convoy mer-
chant SHIPS carrying goods OF black
listed merchants.
