enemy shipping, when seized, should
be divided among the countries whose
shipping has suffered, or be sold so as
to exclude enemy or neutral buyers.
"The exclusion of enemy shipping
from ports of the British empire
would be of little value to British
shipping" says the report, "as it
would leave open the American
trades, unless all the allies were pre-
pared to adopt similar measures.
Freedom of the seas in the sense of
equal treatment of all flags in all
ports should therefore be a cardinal
principal in our postwar policy"
This declaration is counter to the
stand of the British Seamen's Union
which declared a boycott of German
goods and ships because of U-boat
crimes.
The committee recommends the
government relinquish its control over
merchantmen, whence peeace comes,
and that efforts be made to build
100000 tons Of merchant ships an.
nually after the war.
