DEFENDS CABLE CENSORSHIP.
A mbassador Says British Are Not TO
Blame for HoIdup and Delay.

wAsHIRGroH, Jan. 23.-The British
Embassy tonight made this statement;
AS the result OF complaints as to
the non-arrlval and delay Of cables be-
tween the United States and Italy and
Switzerland careful Inquiries have been
made by his Majestys Government.
Particulars regarding FIVE special
cases having been communicated by the
United States Ambassador in London II
was found on INVESTIGATION that OF these
fve messages four were passed By the
British censors; the NTH, which was
repetition Of message despatched the
previous day by the French cable, was
held up by the British censors because
they realized that II 1t had passed the
French censors IT would have reached
its destination, whereas II the latter had
held II up for reasons known to them
selves II would be unwise to pass it,
Investigation was also made into two
out of several lists supplied by the Swiss
Min ster In London OF all the 81 messages
Il was ascertained after careful search
that only 81 reached the British censors :;
Of these were passed and II were quite
justifiably held up FER various violations
OF the censorship regulations, e. g., in
clusion OF code words, omission of CEN
sor's name, &c.
Lastly out of a large number OF COM
plants made by the Italian Government
in regard to special cables 1t was found
that only II passed through the hands
OF the British censors and none Of them
had been held up.
From the above facts ii is clear that
tho British censors are In no way TO
blame for the delay and non-arrivel OF
cable messages between the United States
and italy and SMitZerlanu'
