Philadelphia. Nov. 15.-War between

simply unthinkable," declared Roland
y. Morris American ambassador to
Japan, in addressing the American
academy Of political and social science
here tonight.
Asserting he did not intend to take
up any question which might happen
to be the subject of friendly discus
sion between the American and aJpa-
nese governments, Mr.. Morris express
ed regret for the "ill-considered state
ments, which from time TO time find
expression in both countries, as TO
the suggestion Of war"
ut is as Premier Hara has recently
said, simply unthinkable'." Mr.. Nor
ris continued, that although there
are pending questions for the con-
sideration Of both our governments.
there is no valid evidence Of unfriend-
ly feeling between them. On the
contrary, it is the best possible evil
dence Of the many interests We have
in common-many of them difficult
and complex, but not one Of them
insoluble."

To Blow Up German Ships at Scapa Flow THIS DECISION FINALLY DIsPOsEs OF QUEs- TON WHICH HAS CAUSED MUCH
 DISCUSSION

London, Jan. 6-German warships sunk by their officers in Scapa Flow will be blown up soon, it was stated here today. The decision to dispose of the vessels in this way followed the completion of Investigations by a special commission representing all of the Allies. Experts employed by the salvage department of the British Admiralty spent several weeks taking soundings in Scapa Flow, and the in formation they furnished the com mission was used as a basis to deter mine whether the ships should be raised Or destroyed.
 The decision, announced in the fore going despatnch, to blow up the Ger man ships sunk in Scapa Flow appar- ently disposes finally of question which has caused a great deal of dis cussion in all the allied countries. The almost insuperable task of raising the vessels and the possibility that the salvaged materials would not be of great value were believed to have weighed heavily in favor of destroy ing the vessels by explosives.
 Scuttling of the units of the Ger man fleet interned at Scapa Flow occurred on June 21, 1919, and was carefully arranged by officers and crews. Nine batt1eships, five battle cruisers, eight light cruisers, and numerous smaller craft were sunk, while others went ashore in g. half sunken condition. All explosives had been removed from the vessels by allied officers, and the only means of destroying the fleet was by open ing the sea cocks. The ships went down slowly with the German flag which the crews had hoisted, show ing at the mast heads. The flying Of a red flag at noon was a signal for the wholesale sinkings.
