 To Sail For U. s.
 Earlier, Q responsible source here had said that the German govern ment had received information that the City of Flint would sail irnlne- diately for the United States with It's cargo, under the terms of the new neutrality act.
 NaM quarters admitted that the Norwegian cofnmuniQue on the sub- ject constituted "a more or less flat rejection" of the German protest at losing the ship, and 1t was reported that diplomatic discussions with Norway were continuing.
 The Norwegians were still holding the Nazi prize crew prisoners, ac- cording to latest word here, and ne- gotiations to secure their release were reported underway.
 Newspapers generally avoided the subject but continued angry protests against the lifting of the United | States arms embargo.
 It was charged that the act would spread rather than limit the war and that 1t was motivated by an Ameri- can lust for profits.
 Quote Roosevelt Speeches The authoritative Deutscher Dienst quoted President Roosevelt's 1886 Chautauqua, N. \. speech and speeches by Secretary of State Cor dell Hull! warning that the sale of arms to belligerents would spread war, and said:
 "Yet, today, MT. Roosevelt says the United States will return to the his- toric position of neutral power by removing the arms embargo, that same embargo which was formerly launded as assisting the preservation of neutrality"
 Zwoelf Uhr Blatt said: Roosevelt has sanctified war profits. He bowed not to the will of American people but to Wall Streets voting ticket. Secretary Hull has not helped to smother the flames of war but has applied himself to flaming them. He is helping prolong the war"
 Look Into Past History
 Voelkischer Beobachter said: "In America, nobody denies that the change of the previous neutrality status exclusively assists the vest ern Democracies. The American people would be well advised to look back a little into past history; into history of the years 1914 to 1918 and the speeches of their present presi- dent during his term of office. They should serve as warning"
 The criticisms of the German press had continued without let-up during the weekend. Diplomatic and poli- tical correspondence, semi-official agency, said Sunday that the new American neutrality act shows the illogic and instability of the gov- ernment's present course" The Es- sener National Zeitung close to Will helm Goering, No. 3 Nazi, said the United Staets action "seems to force the conclusion that In this young land, money is still stronger than planned out principles"
 Speak of Another Seizure
 (There was little comment on the City of Flint incident but German wireless reports heard in New York remarked that the American freight CT New Orleans, bound for Spain and Italy with cargo of cotton, had been "seized" by French warship of Gran and that 1t was surprising the American press treated the case of the City of Flint" as such a sen- sation and ignored the seizure" of the New Orleans which was destined for neutral countries with normal cargo)
 Propaganda Minister Joseph Goeb- bels addressed Hitler youth and maidens Sunday, telling them their duties in the "totalitarian war" He said, German people have never been more enthusiastic for the r1a- tional cause than now. stupid, i'm pertinent leaflets dropped over Ger man cities and villages (by British , airplanes) cannot affect our morale We in Germany hear only the voice of the fuehrer."
