Le droit des prises de la grande guerre » Verzijl, J.H.W. » 1924 - Pag. 602 | Delpher

navires allemands: Samsem, Trautenfels, Landrat Scheiff, Deli, Patani et Pitsanulok (854) ; Chantaboon, Patriu etc. (863). § 309. Du reste, il faut observer que, si les puissances belligérantes se résolvaient a proclamer enfin rinviolabilité de la propriété privée ennemie sur mer, la situation légale des ressortissants ennemis dans la guerre maritime deviendrait égale a celle des neutres, et que, par conséquent, ils seraient désormais soumis aux mêmes restrictions de la liberté de leur commerce dont les ressortissants neutres sont eux-mêmes susceptibles.

rights under it The contention seems to me to be opposed to the
plain words of the Déclaration of Paris. In order to accept it, the words must be read something in this form: the neutral flag covers enemy goods so far as concerns the interest of the neutral shipowner.
