NEW YORK, Feb. 27.—Behind the Federal Jury in-
vestigatiop in progress here to determine if there has been
a systematic violation of American neutrality and cus-
toms laws, there was said today to lie a determination by
the United'Statcs government to make effective its stand ' '.
against detention of any American vessel by a belligcrcnt '
power‘ on a suspicion that contraband is in the cargo. It
was explained unofficially that the government‘s position
in the matter of preserving i eutrality would be made
more secure. in the eyes of foreign nations, by establish-
ing a policy of prosecuting attempts at such violations,
since such prosecutions Would in effect, it was pointed out,
serve to place guarantees upon American cargoes that
they were not contraband. ‘ - '
The documents in poss< ssion of the jury contain
charges that the Hamburg-A merican Steamship Line has ‘
attempted to use Norwegian mcrchant shipsas auxiliaries ,
to German war vessels on the Atlantic. -
, lilisstatcmcnts, in clearance papers, as to ports of
call or destination, and false statements in manifests as
to the contents of cargoes" are alleged. and the investiga-
tion of the charges is being conducted, it is understood, 3
.on the theory that such false statements constitute acon- ‘
spiracy against the United .‘tatcs Government. .
Complaints are said to have bccnrcccivctl by the ’
federal authoritcs that (lozcrs of tramp steamers have _ _;
sailed with contraband cargoes 'attcr ,tnnking .niilegai
