Excerpt from The Declaration of London February 26, 1909: A Collection of Official Papers and Documents Relating to the International Naval Conference Held in London December, 1908 February, 1909 For all these reasons the subject claims attention. That the Declara tion was not ratified and officially sanctioned in its own right and that it has finally been abandoned even in substance does not, it would seem, detract from the value of the collection which follows. The Declaration constitutes the best statement of the laws of war at sea as they stood in 1914, and it marks the high tide, historically, of the liberalization of those laws. The proposals in preparation for and in course of the conference and the eventual compromises attained embody in written form all those perplexing conflicts be tween sea and land, island and continent, navy and army, belligerent and neutral, and, to a certain extent, war and peace, which have emerged into public attention since August, 1914.

Not illustrated. 1920 edition. Excerpt: ...the establishment of the blockade. (Article 11.) Only it must be observed that the sanction could not be the same in the two cases. To insure the notification of the declaration of blockade there is a direct and adequate sanction; an unnotified blockade is not binding. In the case of the raising there can be no parallel to this. The public will really gain by the raising, even without being told of it officially. The blockading Power which did not notify the raising would expose itself to diplomatic remonstrances on the ground of the non-fulfillment of an international duty. This non-fulfillment will have more or less serious consequences, according to circumstances. Sometimes the raising of the blockade will really have become known at once, and official notification would add nothing to this effective publicity. It is needless to add that only the voluntary raising of a blockade is here in question; if the blockading force has been driven off by the arrival of enemy forces, it can not be held bound to make known its defeat, which its adversary will undertake to do without delay. Instead of raising a blockade, a belligerent may confine himself to restricting it; he only blockades one port instead of two. As regards the port which ceases to be included in the blockade, it is a case of voluntary raising, and consequentlv the same rule applies. ARTICLE 14. The liability of a neutral vessel to capture for breach of blockade is contingent on her knowledge, actual or presumptive, of the blockade. For a vessel to be liable to capture for breach of blockade, the first condition is that she must be aware of the blockade, because it is not just to punish some one for breaking a rule which he does not know. Nevertheless, there are circumstances in...
