AUSTRIA FEIGNS
IGNORANCE AS
EXCUSE
Claim AnCona Note Is Weak in
That Austria Did Not Know of
Stand of the U. S. Regarding
the DuSitania Affair.

VIENNA. Dec IA - The American
note is regarded as weak in one i'm
portant point which may deprive il in
a general way of its foundation This
concerns the assumption that Austria
should be familiar with the attitude of
the United States, regarding the free
dom of the seas, because it has been
explained to Germany Austria rails
es the objection that the only know
ledge she had of the Lusitania nego-
tiations was through the newspapers
which are of no diplomatic value.
It is pointed out the United States
can scarcely demand that the Austri-
an government base its policy on news
papers 1t is suggested that it would
have been better if Washington. at the

are declared to represent the high
mark IN size for American batteships,
was in the statement Secretary Dan
iels presented to Congress outlining
the lessons from the war regarding
the best type of ships. Daniels says
it would be unwise TO build battle
ships so large they couldn't easily nav
igate the Panama Canal
Daniels said in view of the increas-
ed efficiency of the torpedo and the ex-
tensiye use of mines and bombs from
aircraft It was decidedly better to in
crease the number rather than size.
Daniels statement apparently closes
the debate agitating the Navy Depart
ment regarding the general character
istics of the first battleships to be rec
commended under the Administrations
FIVE year building program.
In answering the questions Con
gress propounded Daniels declares
that superdreadnaughts are the most
efficient weapon, ship for ship, in any

CITED IN THE MATTERl
The Trent Case in the Civil War

COrding to the United States in
Its Note to French Officials.

WASHINGTON. Dec. IA note
asking for the immediate release of
six Germans and Austrians, removed
from the American steamers Caro-
lima, Coamo and San Juan, by the
French cruiser Descartes, was cabled
TO Ambassador Sharpe at Paris for
presentation to the French foreign
office It declares the act without
legal justification and that it consti-
tutes a flagrant violation of Ameri-
can rights
Although friendly, the note states
the American view point and emphat-
ically cites precedents i'm the case of
August Priepenbrink, a German re-
moved from the American ship Wind
Der by a French cruiser a year ago
and released after representations by
the United States.
Attention is directed TO the fact
that the men removed were not en-
bodied in the armed forces of the
enemy" as tie term is used in the
Declaration Of London. It is asserted
there was no justification for the re-
moval of subjects of the enemy Of
France from an American vessel on
the high seas bound to a neutral port,
even if they could be regarded as mil
itary persons
The Trent case in the civil war is
cited as especially applicable to the
present situation. In the Trent case
the French sent a note to the United
States regarding the removal of two
Confederate commissioners from the
Trent saying the Trent was carry
ing cargo and passengers from neu.
tral port to a neutral country. If il
is admissible, under such circum
stances. a neutral flag didn't com
