MISSION Blockade Claims Brought Up By Scnator Borah Next to be Considered London, Aug. 5. M—Now that the | mission of Brigadier General Lin- coln C. Andrews, American prohibi- tion enforcement chief, has been concluded, the British government is preparing for the reception of the next American emissary, who is ex- pected in September. This mission, it is stated in of- ficlal quarters, is expected to raise the difficult question of American war time shippers’ “blockade” claims which United States Benator Borah has recently brought up. British officials are reticent with re- gard to the forthcoming negotia- tions, stating only that “many in- terdepartmental claims arising out of the war” will be considered. Great Britain has various counter claims, such as the reconditioning of American ships, to settle. When the blockade claims became ~ the subject of press comment here sev- eral months ago, it was sald in of- ficial circles that it would be im- possible to saddle British tax pay- ers with further obligations in the form of additional American debt, and that the principle of the claims would not be admitted.
