British auxiliary police is told by
Emil Pezolt and Daniel P. Scanlon,
American seamen on the steamer

The attacks on the American sea-
men were reported to American Con-
sui Mason Mitchell at Cork, who In
turn made representations to Brit
ish headquarters. but the seamen
were told II would be difficult to
identify the policemen.
According to Pezolt's story, he was
held up by police on the night OF
December II while on his way to re-
join the ship. He says they took his
pass for shore leave, his passports
and discharge papers from previous
voyages away from him at the point

1t was not yet curfew, Pezolt de-
clares, and other patrols were pass
ing. One stopped. he asserts, and
an officer. learning that Pezolt was
an American, shouted, "Oh, you are
a damned Yank, are you?" and
knocked him down.
The police attempted to make
sport of him. Pezolt says, and not
until he had bee nsubjected to fur
ther rough treatment was he given
a chance to run away from them.
