CAN SEE MOTOR BOATS
Laws Prevent Only the Sending
Abroad of Armed Vessels.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 6.-The state
department has decided that it is not
a violation of neutrality to sell motor
boats to persons in European coun-
tries, even if they are later converted
into war vessels. The question was
brought to the attention of the state
department a few days ago by the
German government. 1t became in
teresting. owing to the report that
Great Britain was destroying the Ger
mar submarine fleet by the use of
such vessels.
One of the law officers of the de-
partment said today that the laws of
neutrality prevent only the equipping
of expeditions here against foreign
countries and the sending abroad of
vessels armed and equipped for the
use of any of the belligerents.
