ASKSREAS0N
FOR RECALLS
OF ATTACHES

Washington. Dec, Count Won
Bernstorff today presented to the state
department a communication asking
for the reasons for the request for the
withdrawal of Captain Boy-ed and
Captain Won Papen, the German naval
and military attaches, respectively.
1t was stated ,.uthoritatlvely, though
not in the communication, that the
ambassador would under no consider
alton ask the United States to get safe
conducts for the attaches, The Ger
man government was represented as
considering it incumbent on the Unit
ed States to return the attaches in
safety to German territory and bring
their successors here.
Should it develop from the state de-
partments answer that other Incl
dents than the Archibald case and
the testimony at the trial of the con-
spirators of the Hamburg American
line were considered by the United
States in asking that the attaches be
withdrawn, Germany will contest the
Withdrawals. Should the department
reply that these two incidents alone
were responsible, the withdrawal will
take place without further inquiry or
protest. Even then, however, Ger
many will consider that under the cir
cumstances the United States must
open the way for the attaches to leave
the country.
While conferences on the subject
are in progress the two attaches, Cap
tain Boy-ed and Captain Won Papen,
will remain within the United States.
They were both in Washington today
and they have conferred with Count
Won Bernstorff several times, Under
all diplomatic usage 1t is only neces-
sary for the United States to indicate
to Germany that the attaches are per
soma non grata and 1t is unnecessary
to give a reason for the withdrawal
The German ambassadors action TO-
day came as distinct surprise to Of
| ficials here.
