and premature. Otherwise they aro Irrelevant. Still, it is interesting to con- | -—-—-— sider some of the particular applications. Clearly, there is one kind of freedom in sen warfare which must be suppressed as Lincompatible with the general order-the mines in the high seas, against which Great Britain protested strongly but in |valin at The Ingue Conference of 1907. That suppression, at least, should be welcome to all the Fatente Feïvers.
Much more will the grosser offences of this war stand condemned. There must [be no more forbidding of whole regions of the sea to merchantmen at the sole
will of a belligerent, no more sinkings without warning even of ships under the enemy flag.
Leen clear is the intended effect of Mr. Wilaca's principles on the rules of prize, contraband and blockade governing the forms of maritime warfare hitherto allowed as legitimate.
If war power at sea is to be wielded by league of nations for that, by what ever name, is assumed in the President's Ideal and exercised only for the corámon. weal against peace-breakers, is there any reason for curtailing its resources ?
