now are being armed to‘ defend
.themselves against unlawful at-
?tacks by a submarine. The gen-
‘eral view today is that arming of
ships is the only answer to sub-
lmarine operations short of a
ldeclaration of war, which may be
lmadc only by Congress.
The circumstances that the Al-
; gonquin carried foodstuFfs, which
‘are contraband, and that she re-
lccntly was transferred from Brit-
lish to American registry, a trans-
laction Germany might plead she
‘would not recognize, are not tak-
en to outweigh the fact that the
ship was reported destroyed with-
,out warning. Neither does the
lfact that, apparently, no lives
iwere 10M. mitigate the situation.
But the fact as unofficially ex.
pressed, is that while the destruc-
tion of an American ship in such
a manner is v8rv serious. the
American government already has

continues the dispatch. “The al-

These g,conferences, it is indxa

out of developments during the

it says, were made to prevent the
situation between Germany and”
