Washington, July 15.-.The state de.

Acting Secretary Polk said 1t was not
to be taken as . precedent and that

In view Of the facts in this case"
said Mr.. Polk. there Is no reason
why the submarine should be consid-

The departments action was based
on report Of navy and customs officers
who examined the submarine at BaitI-
more and found she was unarn1ed and
incapable Of being converted for war
like purposes without much alteration.
An advisory report from the neutrality
board. to which the case was referred
informally by Mr.. Polk. held that the
vessel should be accorded all privileges
