VIA JAPAN AND RUSSIA
AMERICAN GOODS FOR GERMANY BRITISH ALLEGATIONS BEING INVESTIGATED SHANGHAI, February 21. (Received February 22, at 8 a.m.) It is reliably reported that Britain las renewed her request to the United States to further restrict American trade reaching Germany via Japan and Russia, following censorship of recent American mails to Hongkong in which the British allegedly discovered evidence of American transhipments of goods from Shanghai, Tientsin, Yokohama, and Dairen to Vladivostok. It is understood that American consuls in the Far East are at present investigating the movement of American cargoes, particularly transhipments, although etrict enforcement of the export licensing system since January 1 has drastically reduced the shipment of many American products, especially metals.
