reports the loss by mine or submarine
of seventeen British merchantmen
last week. OF these eleven were
1000 tons or over and six under that
tonnage. Eleven were unsuccessfully
attacked. Two fishing vessels were
lost.
Washington, March 21.-Upon Hol-
lands refusal in the face of German
threats, to put into effect her volun-
tary agreement for restoring her mer-
chant marine to normal activity, the
United States government requisi-
toned all Dutch ships in American
waters. At the same time Great Brit
ian took over Dutch vessels in British
ports. A total of seventy-seven ships
of probably 100000 tons was added to
the American merchant marine by the
requisitioning. Another 100000 tons
are put into the allied service by
Great Britain's action. Most of them
will be used IN the food-carrying trade
between the United States and Eu-
rope.
President Wilson's proclamation
taking over the ships was issued only
after word finally came from London
that Hollands delayed reply was
rejection of the British-American de-
mand. The government had waited
more than forty-eight hours beyond
the time when Holland had been re-
quested to make a decision as to
whether she would carry out the orig
to fctt Ion ing
Every effort was made to avoid
drastic action. as transfer by agree
ment was sought. rather than by seiz-
ure, although the latter Is an exercise
of sovereign rights justified in inter
national law and practiced by all ma
tions.
The Presidents proclamation was
issued Immediately. authorizing the
navy to take over the vessels. which
will be equipped and operated by the
navy department and the shipping
board. the dutch cross being supple
mented by American civilian sailors
and naval reservists. Compensation
will be made to the owners as re.
quired by law.
Although the ships have been taken
over without any formal agreement,
the United States proposes to carry
out scrupulously the terms Of the orig
inal pact. 30 that Holland shall re-
ceive ample foodstuffs and will be
protected in her colonial trade by
having sufficient tonnage to maintain
It's commerce.
Although the reason never was for
mally expressed" the President said
"it was generally known that the
Dutch ship owners feared lest theil
ships should be destroyed by German
submarines. That this fear was moi
wholly unjustified has unhappily beer
shown by the recent act Of the Ger
man government in sinking the Span
ish ship Sardinero outside the danger
zone. when carrying q cargo Of grair
for Switzerland. and after the subma
rine commander had ascertained thi.
fact by an inspection Of the ship
