Show Says Shipping Question Will Soon Be Adjusted Sir Gilbert Parker and Mrs. Parker. i Noted Lawyer Expresses Belief Be-lief in Sympathy of Nations. Special Cable to Th Tribune. LONDON, Feb. 27. -Sir Gilbert Parkerj the notedt international j lawyer, believes the kindred j sympathy of the American and i British peoples makes the settlement of the shipping questions easy of ad- justment. He says: , Trouble between England and J the United States about the search ; of ships J!or contraband and the transfer of ships to escape enemy penalties? There is nothing: new in that. It is a trouble which has often come between the most friendly nations, as the United States found in her civil war and in her Spanish-Cuban war. She was eeajcnuig ships then and sharply sharp-ly questioning transfers, and it was hard going sometimes. She put diplomacy on the rack then, as we are doing now, and with no national ill will. |
