did request that they shorten their
meeting and that no books be sold

broader aspects were disappointed
today when Lieut.. Karl Neumann, a

of criminally sinking the hospital ship
Dover Castle. The court held that
he had acted clearly within the in
structions given him by his superiors
Whether Emperor William, Admir-
al Won TirpitZ or other German Of
ficials were criminally responsible

ships can probably shield themselves

them.
