BULLETIN.
Possibility Of giving Amer
lean liners United States
naval conveys while they are
bringing refugees back from
the war zone was discussed by
naval officials during 4 con-
ference with President Roose-
welt this afternoon. Acting
Secretary Of the Navy Edison
admitted the subject was
mentioned, but no decision
reached.
Proclamations by President Roose-
welt declaring American neutrality
and invoking the neutrality law will
be issued within the next "a hours,
the White House announced today
State Department ofIicials, mean
while, said they were looking into
the facts regarding the sinking of
the British liner Athena, which had
several hundred Americans aboard,
and the airplane bombing Of the
villa of the American Ambassador
near Warsaw.
Stephen T. Early, presidential
secretary, told reporters that the
two proclamations would be issued
simultaneously, probably through the
State Department.
Until those DEGREES have come out
and careful study has been made
to see how far the Government
can operate without amending the
neutrality statute, Mr.. Early assert
ed, there will be no call for q spe-
cial session of Congress.
No New Laws Yet.
He said that additional laws ia
soften the blow of the European war
to the American economy were not
yet in the picture
Asked what the Government might
do about prof1teering, Mr.. Early sug-
gested that the Attorney General be
questioned on that point. He said
he knew Of no law to prevent prof
iteering.
1t Is understood there will be two
neutrality proclamations. One will
be general declaration of neutrality
under international law. The other
is made necessary by the American
Neutrality Act, which requires the
listing of munitions and implements
of war, shipment of which would be
prohibited once the President finds
a state of war exists and issues the
proclamation.
Although the President is prepar-
ing to meet his cabinet in a spe-
cial session at 2 o'clock this after
noon, it was implied at the White
House that preparation of the neu-
trality proclamations is not await
ing and does not hinge on that
meeting.
Hundreds Of Messages Arrived.
Mr.. Early said that hundreds of
kilograms and telephone messages
have flowed into the White House
since the President delivered his
radio address last night, nearly all
of them in sympathy with the neu-

of the submarine convention, he
said:

at this moment. Perhaps question
tomorrow might elucidate the judi
cial aspect
Destroyers at Scene.
Officials did not announce from
what ship Capt. Cooks message was
sent, nor were the names of the res
cue ships made known.
It was established officially how
ever, that British destroyers were on
the scene of the disaster, $50 miles
west Of Inishtrahull, Northern Ire
land.
The British ministry of informa-
ton said that of the 3l1 United
States passengers aboard. all fleeing
the European war zones. IS had
boarded the 13,59l-ton Montreal

pool, and las from Glasgow.
In the absence of a complete pas
Senger list there was a possibility
these listings involved some duplica-
ton.
1t was presumed that most Of the
survivors would be taken to Belfast
or Londonderry.
The first disclosure of the attack
came from the admiralty at am.
90 pm, E. S. T9 and was followed
an hour later by the statement the
ship was sinking fast.
The next direct word was the an
nouncement of the message of res
cue from the captain. This was
posted at the Donaldson Line offices
in Glasgow at $50 am. $3.50 am,
E. S. t.. and was confirmed by the
admiralty in London shortly there
after.
1t was recalled that in previous
torpedo disasters a comparatively
small number were killed by the ex-
plosion Of the torpedo Added to this

Kennedy sent She following cable
to the State Department at WASH
ingtOn:
"All on Athena rescued except
those killed by explosion. The
admiralty advises me survivors
picked up by other ships. List of

Winston Churchill, first lord OF
the admiralty, declared in the House
of Commons today that the Athena
was torpedoed without the slight
est warning"
Giving official particulars of the
disaster in the North Atlantic, Mr..
Churchill said the vessel, with about
l 400 persons aboard, including more
than 800 Americans, was torpedoed
at $3.50 pm. (2:59 pm. Eastern
standard time) about 200 miles
northwest of Ireland
British destroyers, he said, should
have been on the scene by 8 this
morning.
No Warning, Says Churchill.
TT certainly was torpedoed with
out the slightest warning" Mr..
Churchill said, land in circum-
stances which in the opinion of the
world after the late war-and in
which Germany concurred - had
stigmatized as inhumane.
According to my present infor-
nation, the ship was not armed as
an auxiliary cruiser"
Mr.. Churchill said that the Athena
sailed before war was declared and
that orders had been given for
conveys on one ship route Sunday
He said q general convoy system was
being pressed into operation as
quickly as possible.

100000 British liner Queen Mary
reached New York safely today with
a record list of 1881 passengers after
swift voyage through North At

hundreds of other American war
refugees, happy to escape the fate
of their fellow countrymen on the
British ship Athena, torpedoed and
sunk of Scotland.
Passengers, among them Percival
Wilde. playwright, of Sharon, Conn.
said the Queen Mary avoided the
regular transatlantic steamship
lanes, running about 400 miles north
and following a zig-zag course after
leaving Cherbourg. The best days

Stored in the Queen Mary's hold
were $40 boxes of gold, valued at
$44,55o, 900.
As in the World War, however,
sudden death lurked on the surface
and below to endanger thousands
of other Americans speeding to their
homeland sanctuary, many on ves-
sells flying foreign flags.
Postmaster General James A. Far
ley and Norma Shearer were In mid
ocean aboard the crowded Manhat-
tan of the United States Lines. The
Manhattan is expected to dock at
New York Thursday.
