Robert stated that a reply 10 Ihee

Lord Robert, however. declined 10
enter into the details of the contests
of the reply beyond the statement that
the principle embodied in British leg
islation fOrbidding trading with an
enemy country unlikely 10 be sur
rendered in any measure.
The Minister Of War trade profess
ed himself TO be puzzled by the pro-
visions in the revenue bill passed by
congress: / Washington dealing with
the prohibition Of imports, as such or
ders. he said, were adpted strictly in
IN effort 10 conservative tonnage and
were applied accordingly:
In general defense Of British COM
mercial acts. Lord Robert said TO the
Associated Press:
The ideas expressed by some OF
your newspapers that Great Britain is
adopting a deliberate policy with
which to injure American trade is the
purest moonshine, since outside or
our own dominions our trade with the
United States is the most important.
OF course. natural trade rivalry eX-
lists, br, no responsible statesman in
this cukntry would dream of propos-
Ing an insane measure designed to in

Erroneous impression.
ANY impression that the blacklist
is merely an entering wedge for a
trade warfare after the war may be
dismissed at once. assure you The
blacklist is purely war MEASURE aud
! cannot insist too strongly that the.
government is taking every precaution
TO guarantee its enforcement so as
to cause as little hardship as possible
to innocent traders"
It was then pointed out to Lord
Robert that the belief prevailed that
consignments Of firms trading with
,blacklisted firms might be refused
shipment from American 10 other neu.
tral ports through the fear Of not get
ting coal Lord Robert replied:
This fear is ungrounded, as we
have no desire to interfere nor does
the law contemplate any interference
with legitimate trade. We are taking
precautions 10 prevent aN uQJuSlllleu
extension of the. blacklist.
Lord Robert expressed the opinion
that not only the purpose Of the blat -
list. but also the real design of the
Paris economic conference was mis-
understood in the United States, say
ing in this connection:
THE real purpose OF the Paris con
ference was to arrive at some plan
BY which 10 prevent any resumption

.SUFFRAG|STS Will
CONTINUE POLICY or
NON-PARTISANSHIP

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Sept. s.
The National American Woman Sut-
frage Association to-day reafhrmed It's
policy OF non-partisanship as an or,
toward. national polltlcal
parties and defeated by an overwhelm-
ing vote an attempt to place the asso-
citation on record as in favor OF sup
porting national candidates who
pledge their support to the proposed
equal rights amendment to the Federal
constitution.
The resolution, which was intro
duced by Mrs. Raymond Robins, wife
of the chairman of the last national
convention of the Progressive party
was branded by some of the delegates
as an anti-Wilson move, despite Vehe-
ment denials by Mrs. Robins and 9TH
crs who signed the resolution.
The resolution provoked long and
warm debate, in which these den1als
were supplemented by declarations
that the resolution was non.partsan,
and that it was not aimed at President
Wilson, who has not come out IN sup
port of the Federal amendment. DR..
Anna Howard Shaw, honorary presl-
dent of the association, was vehement
in her denunciation Of the resolution.
She supported other speakers. who
said the passage Of the resolution
would hurt the suffrage cause all over
the United States. She drew atten-
ton 10 the fact that President Wilson
favors woman suffrage, and voted for
it in his own State.
After the Robins resolution was de-
feated the convention adopted reso-
luton re-atfirming its non-partisan at
titude toward national political par
ties. The resolution also stated that
this policy did not preclude the Ilght
of any member Of the association from
working against the election OF amy
candidate of women in states whe:e
they have the right 10 vote.
Resolution withdrawn.
The resolution introduced in the
several days ago by Presi-
dent Carrie Chapman Gait that the I'M
mediate and principal air of the asso.
citation was the passage of the federal
amendment and that all state work
was only pl leparatory thereto was
withdrawn. The subject will be Intro.
duced in another form, Mrs. Gait said,
as the resolution, because OF the op-
position it has met, apparently mas
been misunderstood.
The convention spent much or the
afternoon in deciding on methods OF
carrying on its campaign for suffrage.
The question Of opposing the re-elec-
tion OF those members OF the house
judiciary committee whether Demo.
Gratis or Republicans. who blocked
the suffrage amendment in committee
was left TO the judgment OF the asso-
cia tion's congressional committee,
Two days in October and one day
