Still a Deadlock on Demand for
His Release-RecaIl May Be
Asked.

The German government may make n
direct issue of the incident growing out
Of the arrest of Wolf Won Igel. embassy
attache, in the welland canal plots. and
seizure of his papers
Ambassador Won Bernstorff. after a
discussion with the State Department
late yesterday, indicated that the Ger
man government may send note of
protest to the United Safes.
The ambassador and the State Depart
ment apparently are deadlocked over
the question of releasing the attache and
his papers.
The German ambassador continues to
insist on the unconditional release OF
the confiscated papers. The State De-
partment says II will return the of
ficiar' papers. providing Count Won
Bernstorff passes upon the official
character OF the documents.
Unless the papers are accepted by the
German embassy, as official the State
Department cannot recognize Germeny's
right to ask their return, since the New
York offices in which they were seized
when Won Igel was arrested was under
lease as an advertising office and had
no official status.
There is still deadlock on the demand
for release of Won Igel. IL was indi-
Gated today that the State Department
is considering the question OF asking
Germany to recall Won Igel as q way
out OF the difficulty.
