Conversations have taken place between Bri- tish and United States officials in Washington on the question of enemy ships now sheltering in

the United States ports.

The British Embassy has now been authorised to issue a state- ment to the effect that in connec- tion with the recent agreement for the employment of Danish ships in United States ports, the British Government has consent- ed, in respect of these ships, to waive their rights as a belliger- ent to refuse to recognise the transfer of enemy merchant ship to a neutral flag, unless they Arst satisfy themselves in regard to the validity of the transfer.

The statement adds that the principal roaton hitherto for the Immobilisation of these ships had been the fact that the British Government felt un- able to waive these rights, to the maintenance of which they attach the greatest importance.
