the whole of British East Africa. further
emphasizes the necessity for the acqu!sl-

Of tho Sahara. now in the possession OF
France.
"Although we have at no time been
upholders OF the mad idea which Is held
by many persons who are sane enough In
other matters, that the world entire
ought to be Germany's. We are quite in
agreement with these eminent leaders
that we must found an India of our
own, and that the greater part of the
African continent must furnish the
requisite territory.

State Department tonight
The action Of the British patrols In

no surprise here. 1t is known that the
British regard the Vinland and nine

they will try to capture them wherever
they appear on the high seas, The Brit

at Halifax. and the French have seized
another. the Housatonic.
While It Is presumed here. from pub
lished accounts OF the chase OF the Vim
land, that the British were technically
within their rights. there is some re-
sentiment manifested IN official quarters
at the extent TO which the British had
carried the exercise OF their right to in
tercept all vessels on the seas.
At the request OF the United States
the British Government has repeatedly
ordered It's cruisers to remain a consid-
erable distance beyond the three mile
limit Of United States territorial waters.
and this Government expects them to
refrain from carrying on their operations
close to the American coast.
1t is possible therefore that II the case
Is officially brought to the attention Of
the State Department a reminder may
be sent to the British Government that Il
IL not agreeable to this Government to
have British cruisers crowding upon our
coast and harrying American vessels
