BRITAIN ASKED TO
STATE SHIP POLICY
Cues STONED by United States on
Reported Plan to Use Seized
Vessels.

Formal representations have peen
made by the State Department to the
pritisb foreign office concerning re-
norris that vessels OF the American
Transatlantic Company. now awaiting
Drize court action. are to be reQuisi-
toned by the British government
Owners Of the vessels have advised
the department thnt officers OF the
Hooking and the Gencsee. two OF tne
vessels OF the line seized by the Brit
ish, have informed them that the ships
are TO be pressed into service as Brit
ish merchant vessels.
State Department officials are inclined
TO doubt that Great Britain should take
such radical action. and the representa- :
tons lust made are for the purpose OF
obtaining an official expression from the
British government as to ns intentions'
In the event that the British govern
ment admits she purposes to seize the
ships now awaiting prize court action
the State Department Will make snarp
protest as law officers OF the Govern.
ment have been unable to md any
precedent or theory OF law that would
Justify such action.
The actions of the British government
with reference 20 the ships of the Amer
Gus issue which the Government has de.
In we'd in pressing to decision. The en-.
tire feet OF steamers was purchased
after the war started by Richard j
Wagner and others and the vessels were
placed under American registry.
The British government Immediately
placed all the vessels ON the blacklist
Insisting that Wagner was backed by
German capital and that in reality the
vessels were German owned. Three OF
the vessels. the Hooking. Genesee. and
Kankakee have been seized by the Brit.
ish and held for prize court action.
The only action thus lar taken by
tho state Depa rrnent In connect with
the seizures has been to ask the British
government the reasons for it's action
IN reply the State Department was ad-
vised that these reasons would be made
clear in prize court proceedings. IT Is
believed the government will insist that
tho British government complete Its
prize court proceedings before taking
the revolutionary course Of impressing
