20 U. S-BRITISH RU CONTROL SOUGHT War Claims Problem and English Colonial Policy Pre- sent Delicate Features. BY FREDERICK WILLIAM WILE. Anglo-American relations at the mo- went are marked by one of the strangest situations in recent diplo- " history. At one and the same the Ame an Government i eat Britain to help us enforce + own prohibition laws, and is de ancing that the British arbitrate a ouple of hundred miilion dollars worth of World War blockade claims. en.

This includes liquor that oozed into the United | Ftates across all its coast and land ! trontiers. It is in damming the flood | that originates in the West Indies | that Gen.

Delicate Problems Involved. How ready Gen. Andrews will find the British government to interfere with this very rich trade remains to be seen. Matters at the moment stand like this: There have been certain dis- cussions in Washington, largely with prohibition officials, which resulted in informal from These indicated | if the United States were to send | somebody to London to talk over the whole matter there, it would be pos- eible to discover whether any regula- tions could be made whereby the Brit- ish could prevent dispatch of liquor to our varjous ‘‘rum row Washington officials y it is too early to tell whether thése wholly tentative suggestions will lead any- where. Since they were put forth, it has been made known that the United tates will require Britain to arbitrate claims of American nationals arising out of war-time seizures of the ship- ping by the British navy. Apart from some possible disinclination to be over- accommodating to Uncle Sam at such an hour, there is the eternally delicate question of Britain’s relations with her oversea dominions. All vessels leaving British waters with liquor or other cargoes require clearance papers. Presumably most of the rum ships clear for Bermuda or the Bahamas or the Barbados. It london should attempt to restrict the amount of liquor sent to those islands 's a foregone conclusion that a co- Jonial row of pretty acrimonious pro- portions would ensue, because the West Indian colonists are willing to admit that a good part of their pros- perity arises from the liquor traffic with the United States.
