Friedrich Won der Schulenburg, to-
day intimated that the s20,00O,0 900
German liner Bremen, mysteriously
unreported since she sailed from
New York August 30, had been cap
tured by Britain.
He said questions concerning the
German merchant flagship should
be referred to Winston Churchill,
first lord of the British admiralty
american authorities were so
kind as to hold up the Bremen for
% hours and so far as I know the
British have rather fast destroyers. "
the German diplomat said in re-
sponse to queries about reports the
Bremen had reached Murmansk,
Soviet Arctic port.
Il should think the joint efforts
of the two powerful empires-the
United States and British-should
have been able to trap and take an
unarmed German ship"
so, I think it would be more
proper to ask Mr.. Winston Churchill
where the Bremen is," said the Am
baSsador
In Berlin a man with connections
close to the German Navy declared
September IA that the Bremen, Ger
many's most costly passenger vessel
had arrived of Ml1rn after
crossing the Atlantic by the most
