Great Brit ain is warned, in tBe Amerlctw note of protest against the blacklist) pnade ? public, tonight by the State Depart ment. of the "many serious conso quences to neutral rights and neutral relations which silch an act must nec essarily involve." Already in the hands of tne British foreign office, the note declares "in the gravest tenn>" that it is "mani festly out of the question that . the Government of the United States ac quiesce in such methods" and that tlie United States regards the blacklist as j "Inevitably and essentially inconsist ent with the rights of all the citircns of all the nations not involved in the war." It reminds the British govern ment that "citizens of the United Sta tes are entirely within their right* in attempting to trade with the p?cple or the governments of any of the na? i tions now at war, subject only to well | defined international practices and un derstandings which the Government of the United States deems the govern ment of Great Britian to have too lightly and frequently disregarded." rade again.- 1 whjFi otest in the rco??
