this instance relating to fit
truction of the Norwegian steam-
ship Delto. with Americans in
the crew. declares that the steam-
ship was chartered for transport
purposes to a belligerent govern-
ment and hence its destruction
was legitimate.
This reply which has been dc.
livcred to the American em-
bassy, says that so far as was
possible the safety of the crew
was provided for. The men were
given half an hour in which to
enter the boats. The weather was
clear and the distance to the
shore was. not excessive.
The settlement of the Marina
case, which hinges on the ques‘
tion whether the steamship was
a government transport, is being
Iadcl ayed pending the receipt of fur-
ther advices from Washington. A
