HOLLAND PREPARING
A NOTE SF PROTEST
Holland Regards Blockade Not in
Accordance ^Vith Interna
tional Usages
(By Associated Prtm.)
THE HAGUE, darell ID.-It ls re
ported that Holland 1B preparing a
note to be sent to Great Britain and
France in reference. to the order in !
counci!. which ls regarded ss not in
accordance with international usages.
There ?H no official confirmation of I
this report. ,
WASHINGTON, March 19.-While I
the United States government does'
not know aa yet whether the allies In
tend to maintain a legal blockade or I
propose to apply general rules of
contraband and non-contraband in
enforcing their embargo on commer
cial Intercourse between Germany]
and neutral countries. American
naval officers and officials versed In
international law expressed tbs opin
ion today that.' (he indefinite limit
prescribed-"Europ?en waters, in
cluding the Mediterranean"- -might
bs construed aa a legal area ot op
erations for a blockading fleet
Naval officers frankly' adn.it that
the old form of blocksdo by warships
close to an enemy coast passed with
the investment of Santiago in the
Bpanlsh-Amerlcan war. Accordingly,
in asking Great .Britain and France
for an explanation of'their recent de
claration of an embargo, the United
States conceded that the activity of
submarines might make physically
impossible a close blockade of an en
erny coast and suggested that lt the
declaration of the allies were to be
construed as a legal blockade, some
radius ot activity" be announced.
This principio of a "radius of nc
tien" for a blockading fleet was dis
cussed at the international naval con
terence at London* in 1909 and the
declaration which followed contained
this rule:
''Seizure, cf neutral vessels for vio
tatton of blockade may be msde only
wICtfn the radius bf action of ships of
war assigned to maintain an effective
blockade."
The United State? Nsval War Col
lege authorities point out that while
originally under American doctrine,
the area . of blockade was not limited,
the defltion "of the area of opera
tions of a blockade even If In auctVa
manner aa to include a large range
of high sea is regarded as a legiti
mate act of war; . . . and while it
in undoubtedly.an Inconvenience abd
may be a loss to neutral commerce to
ta excluded from the blockaded area,
it is a recognised consequence of
war."
The declaeeilon of London and all
previous expositions' o.f international
law specifically ruled, however, that
"the blockading forces must not bar
access to the ports of cosstof neu
trals." It ls on this point which the
British order in council. If Intended
to be's notification of blockade, would
be, in the viewior officials here, a vio
lation of pmvotts rales, r'or that
reason, rnrther development of the
British policy tn specific casca is
awaited wlfh keen Interest.
