    THE SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE. NORTH PLATTE, NEBRASKA.
BLOCK IS ILLEGAL
WIL80N TO DEMAND OF GREAT
BRITAIN RIGHT TO TRADE
WITH GERMANY.
SEEKS FREEDOM OF CARGOES
President to Hold That Noncontra
band Goods Bound for the Port of
Enemy Is Not 8ubject to Seizure by
the Allies' Warships.
Washington, Juno 14. The now
American noto to Great Britain on tho
rights of neutral conuncrco will make
tho satno demand of that government
that tho United States has already
mado of Germany namely, that she
shall adhere to tho recognized princi
ples of international law in hor treat
ment of American citizens and their
property.
Tho stato department Is now en
gaged In preparing data for tho uso
of tho president and Secretary of
State Lansing In tho construction of
the noto to Great Britain. Tho noto
will soon bo ready for dlsputch to Lou
don. Whllo reiterating Its earlier state
ment that this government might bo
ready to admit that tho old form of
"closo" blockade Is 110 longar practi
cable, tho noto will maintain, on two
points, that Great Britain's present
method of blockade Is illegal. These
points will bo:
That Groat Britain can llnd no war
rant In International law for extend
ing her blockade to tho ports of neu
tral countries adjoining tho enemy
territory.
That her blockade docs not oporato
against traffic between Scandinavian
and Danish ports and Gormany Is,
therefore, In violation of Interna
tional law, which holds that a block
ado must apply to all countries alike.
Tho noto will then indicate the
practices of Great Britain with re
gard to Amorlcan commerce, which
it regards as direct violation of in
ternational law.
This government will stato its un
derstanding of tho law to be that non
contraband, ovon if bound for an
onomy port, Is not oubjoct to interfer
ence unless a legal blockado Is main
tained; that contraband, It destined
for the torrltory of tho onomy, is sub
ject to seizure, and that conditional
or rolativo contraband is subjoct to
solzuro If intended to bo used by tho
enemy government, but Is not subject
to Interference, boyond examination,
Sf lntondod for tho civil population.
Groat Britain's claim that sho Is
prepared to pay for thoso cargoes at
.the price tn which tho contracts were
mado will bo answordd by tho stato
mont that sho has no legal right to
comptfl American owners of goods to
sell to her.

U. S. TO OPPOSE DEAL
GERMANY SEEK8 TO CONTROL
AMERICAN ARMS PLANT.
Attorney General Will Contend That
Sale .of War Supply Factories
Perils Public Welfare.
Washington, Juno 10. President
Wilson and his cabinet considered the
known fact that German interests, re
ported backed by tho Gorman govern
ment, aro negotiating for tho purchaso
of tho great gun and munitlons-of-wnr
plants in this country.
Secretary McAdoo of tho troasury
laid tho matter beforo tho cabinet. Ho
had information from secret service
agents of tho govornmont, who have
been following these Gorman activities
for several weeks.
Tho plants for which negotiations
aro on include that of Charles M.
Schwab ut Bethlehem, Fa., tho 'Rem
ington Small ArniB works at Hartford,
Conn., nnd tho Crnmp works at Phila
delphia, which it Is said Mr. Schwab
Is about to acquire; tho Metallic Cart
ridge company, tho Remington com
pany and other munitions and small
arms works.
Included In tho Schwab plant hold
ings aro tho Foro Itlvor Shipbuilding
company, Massachusetts, and tho
Union Iron works, San Francslco,
where It Is reported parts of subma
rines aro being mado for English con
tract shipments being mado through
Canada.
This now move of tho Gormans In
volves tho outlay of hundreds of mil
Hons, a gigantic financial operation In
tho faco of war needs and conditions.
It is ono of tho most sensational do-
volopmonts of tho European conflict in
connection with tho "United States. Its
consummation lnovltably would lead
thlo country Into serious disagreement
If not conflict with Great Britain nnd
her allies.
Tho latter will demand tho fulfill
mont of their contracts with these con
cerns. Tho Gorman movo Is to prevent
this dollvory of munitions of war. With
tho consummation of tho purchase tho
Gorman owners could refuse to fill tho
contracts. They will not fear suits
for broken contracts.
Tho wholo matter is fraught with
such possibilities, of dangor to this
country that Attornoy Gonoral Greg
ory and tho experts of tho department
of justice havo taken up the question
with a view of Interposing legal ob
staclos. It may bocomo necessary, It
was suggested, to provent such a salo
on tho ground of public wolfare, bo
cauBO of Btralncd relations with Ger
many.

OF INTEREST TO SHIPPERS
nterstate Commerce Hearing on Op
eration of Great Northern Pacific
8teamshlp Company.
Portland, Ore., Juno 12. Unusual
public interest is centered in tho In
terstate commerce commission hear
ing to be held in San Francisco Juno
22, to determine whether or not the
operation of the Great Northern Pa
cific. Steamship company between
Portland, Flavel-Astoria and San
Franslco is in violation of tho inter
state commerce law which prohibits
railroad corporations from owning nnd
controlling stock in competitive steam
ship lines. Shippers of the Northwest
are Interested in the outcome for the
reason that tho service afforded by
tho Great Northern Pacific Steamship
company between these points Is in
tho nature of direct competition with
tho Southern Pacific railway, which
heretofore has had a virtual monopoly
of tho freight carrying business be
tween Portland nnd San Francisco.
Tho contention of tho Pacific coast
shippers is that tho law under which
investigation in being mado wbb cre
ated for tho express purpose of pre
venting railway companies from buy
ing competitive -etenmshlps for the
purposo of eliminating competition,
and that an adverse ruling in tho case
of tho Great Northern Pacific Steam
ship company would result In de
priving tho shippers nnd travelers of
Portland, Seattle, Spokane nnd other
Washington, Montana, Minnesota,
North Dakota and California points
of tho additional service which the
two passenger-express boats of the
line have furnished them.
