Italian navy, will be refused
clearance papers until the guns
are dismounted and removed.
Moreover, the state department
officials said tonight an investi-
cation will be made to deter
mine whether the liner is armed

This action will be taken to
insure against violation of the
general rules enforced by the
United States defining the status

probably will take up informally
with the Italian government the
question of removing the guns.
