Germany which was clearly outlined
at the economic conference at Paris

to become victim OF. any such move.
10 understood 10 have been one under
lying reason for the American black
list protest.
The far-reachIng effect OF the Brit
ish blacklist upon neutral trade and
tho feeling that tho trade war to fol-
low military peace may contain even
more serious consequences TO neutral
nations. determined the administra-
tion TO enter q vigorous protest
against the principle involved. II
was feared the United States might
be considered committed to the allies
trade policy through keeping silent.
II Is for this reason that England's
preliminary reply to the protest.

is unsatisfactory to the government.
In II the British foreign once took up
only the question OF Immediate ap-
plication and extent OF the blacklist.
