PROTECTION OF TRADE ROUTES.
MORE PROTESTS. AN i Mi’ll AC TJ CABLE AGREEMENT. LONDON, Jan. 24. Lord Inverclyde, addressing the Shipowners’ Association at Glasgow, asked whether the Government's desire to ratify the Declaration of London was not equivalent to an admission that the Navy was unahlo to protect the trade routes? Ho said Admiral Wilson was too sanguine regarding the impossibility of invasion. Britain was entitled to the command of the sea commercially, and the Navy must be equal to any necessity. Admiral Fremantle condemns the Declaration, believing none of tho signatories would observe it in war time. An International Court could have no power to enforce its decision. Ho is also of opinion that the new blockade rules would much hamper British naval commanders.
