Washington, Dec. 6.--No eXplana-
ton will be made to Germany by the
United States Government setting
forth the facts as to the Objectionable
activities of Captain Boy-Ed. Naval
Tttache, and Captain Franz Won Pa
pen, Military Attache OF the German
Embassy which have rendered them
persna non gratae and resulted In
the request for their immediate re-
call
Nor will the American Government
disclose to the German Government
the sources OF the Information on
which was based the decision that
the two attaches could no longer be
considered acceptable to this Govern
menc.
Emphatic assurance that this Gov
ernment had taken this position in
the Boy-Ed and Won Papen cases was
given in an informal but nonetheless
authoritative way tonight
According to the position taken by
the State Department it is wholly
within the province Of any Govern
ment to request the recall OF diplo-
mat who may be considered persona
non grata. 1t is also held by the
United States Government that 1t is
not required under any rules OF inter
national relations or practice to state
the reason for asking the recall.
While 1t is true that the reasons for
requesting that diplomats be recalled
are sometimes stated, 1t is the posi-
tion of the United States Govern
ment, at this time, that the stating of
reasons is not required and very of.
ten is not warranted.

sources-from Count Won Bernstorff,

promptly. Mr.. Lansing will not dis

sources of information concerning
the activities OF the attaches in CON

ment objected. Without reference TO
the reasons which prompted the de.
partment to ask the withdrawal of
the attaches, it is stated, the United
States will stand upon the establish
ed understanding among nations that
an intimation that diplomatic offic.
er has made himself disagreeable is
sufficient to cause his removal. 91

an inadequate force and you realized
that the British troops in Canada
