\ DiZTE. IMINE COURSE
I
Should Make Britain End In^
fringment of Neutral
* v Rights.
. ! * v - ,
Hoke Smith, in a vigorous speech in
the Senate last week called upon Congress
to insist that Great Britain
cease interfering with the commerce
with neutral nations. After quoting
4 the State Department's protest
ugainst the British orders in council
in which the United States assumed
the task of championing the integrity
of neutral rights the Senator declared
v it was now up to Congress to deter-.
* mine what value it will be to the inf
, tegrity of neutral rights for the Unitt
A-O ed States to have become their chamU
' Tlinn
I' '
y Th<? right of any belligerent to interfere
with neutral commerce because
the goods were eventually to go
or come from an enemy country was
emphatically denied by the Senator.
"There is no custom or rule of inter
national law to sustain such an excuse,"
he said. Neutrals have the
right to trade with belligerents. Be^
ligerents can interfere with neutral
trade only on account of the character
of the goods or on account of a legally
conducted blockade. The fact that
goods not subject to seizure on account
of their contraband nature will
ultimately reach the enemy of a belligerent
gives no right of interference
with those goods." ,
^ He declared that Great Britain did
not pretend to blockade the ports of
Germany on the Baltic against Norway,
Sweden and Denmark, but nevertheless
vessels carrying goods belonging
to other neutrals, if destined
to German Baltic ports are not permitted
to reach the straits separating
Denmark and Norway and Sweden.
Blockade Illegal.
* "Great Britain simply seizes the
vessels carrying cargoes owned by
citizens of neutral countries whether
going into or coming out of the ports
of northern Europe," he said. "Tha*
this blockade of neutral ports is ille
gal can not he questioned.
"The blockade of neutral ports has
been and is a deliberate disregard of
ft
\ neutral rights by Great Britain. There
can be no pretense that it is sustained
by the customs of nations. Indeed
there is no such pretense. It is a bolo,
reckless disregard of that freedom of
the seas, which is the right of neutrials
by the customs of nations and
the rules of international law.
"Yet for eight months, this disre*gard
of the sovereign rights of all
neutral countries has been permitted
to continue to the serious injury of
the commrece of their citizens."

HEAVY FIGHTING
ON SERBIAN FRONT
Germans and Bulgarians Concentrating
Against
Allies
FRESH FORCES SENT
THROUGH SALONIKI
Entente Powers Show No
Disposition to Abandon
Effort*.
1 ? j
London, Dec. 8.?With the Serbian
armies in retreat behind the Albanian
and Montenegrin frontiers, it was reported
last week the bulk of the German
and Bulgarian armies is being
concentrated against the allied armies
holding the southeast corner of Serbia.
Heavy fighting has boon in prog
ress there for many days.
There is no confirmation of hints
from various sources that the French
troops have been forced definitely to
abandon the position held by them
since the beginning of the campaign.
The fall of Monastic and the southward
progress of German and Bulgarian
forces, however, have placed the
northern wing of the French expedition
in a precarious situation, and
withdrawal form the angle formed by
the Vardar and Cerna rivers apparontly
has begun.
Constant arrival of fresh forces and
war materials at Saloniki give evir
donee that the allies have no intention
of abandoning their efforts.
Although the Germans have announced
the capture of Ipek, Montenegro,
the pusuing Austrian and Bulgarian
armies evidently are confronted
with a harder task on the Montenegrin
frontier than elesewhere. The
Montenegrins to offer stubborn resist
ance. ... i
In Albania the Serbians appear incapable
of organized resistance. Even
an orderly retreat is made difficult,
as the Serbians are encumbered with
large numbers of civilians and prisoners,
and according to some reports,
have been set upon by Albanians.
The latest despatches state that the
French are bringing; heavy guns into
action in the Strumitsn section, causing
the Bulgarians to retire with
heavy losses. A battle of large portions
between the Bulgarian and
Franco-British troops appears to be
pending.
