Opponents of this resolution say
such a change would give German
agents just the kind of fruitful local
conditions they want. BY stirring up

say, all other locals there might be

Peterson, who claims to be a naturalized American of Norwegian birth, declares that the Traveal was a full-rigged sailing vessel proceed ing from Jamaica to Cienfuegos for a cargo of sugar for Queenstown, and was off Cienfuegos when the subma- rine was sighted.
 The submarine launched a canvas boat and two officers and six armed men came aboard, Peterson says. Captain williamson was told the Ger mans would take charge of the ship, and the TreveaIs crew was given ten minutes to take to their boats.
 When the small boats had cleared, Petersons says, the Germans placed bombs fore and aft on the Traveal and destroyed the vessel.
 The crew of the Traveal was in the boats four hours before being picked up by tug and lowed to Cienfuegos. Once landed, Peterson asserted, the men were paid off, and he went to Havana. He declared the Cuban papers refused to publish an account of the sinking because it might do the country harm"
