WASHINGTON. Antf. 1. State department orhcials are studying the provisions asned upon at the London naval conference f 1909 in connection with the proposal of the Ham-bur-Amerw an line to sell a number of ships to citizens of the lntted States to enp-ape In the foreign tnide. I'nder the London agreement it i

t doubtful whether lCngland or France

would regard such a transfer as valid. Article of the London agreement is as follows: "The trant-fer of an enemy's vessel

ships to the American flap can be held not to be made "to avoid the consequences to which they are exposed"

! by the outbreak of hostilities.

The question of sood faith is the rule which would be applied in determining the character of the transfer. If any ships of the HamburgAmerican line were bought by Americans the transfers would have to be complete without reservation of any kind and with the utmost good faith on both sides. Even at that Great Britain would probably question the transfers and hold up the ships on the ground that the sale was made to escape the consequences of the war. The burden would then be on the American owners to prove that this was not the case. The London agreements although ratified by the United States senate was never formally executed y this country as the president did not sign it. This was because of the delay of the other countries in ratifying the net. The Uritish parliament ratified the agreement, but afterwards rescinded its action.
