DECLARATION OF LONDON
SOUTH AUSTRALIAN OPINION'. By Cable —Press Association—Copyright Received 11, 1 a.m. 1 Adelaide, May 11. The Chambers of Commerce Conference discussed the Declaration of London, and adopted a resolution that in view of the adverse opinion expressed by many competent authorities, and the regret and disappointment felt by this conference in respect of the provisions under which food supplies borne in neutral vessels to any port in Britain would be exposed by capture or destruction, together with ,the absence of any provision prohibiting the conversion of merchantmen into commerce destroyers on the high seas, this conference earnestly hopes that British statesmanship and diplomacy may yet succeed in obtaining such modifications of the terms of the declaration as to render it more generally acceptable and bring it more into conformity with the principles which have hitherto governed the practice of Britain in waT time.
