British Note Defends Neutral Rights In War Trade
The British answer to American protests argues that current measures are just and that relief for neutrals should come from mitigating hardships rather than changing policy. It pledges to minimize delays to shipping and to seek impartial, influential commissions to safeguard neutral rights, with French concurrence on military necessity and a call for new methods to counter interceptions. Admiral Jellicoe’s report supports search-at-port as safer than at sea.
