(Story on Secretary Knor's Speech
on Page A-8.J
By the Associated Press.
German-American relations en-
tered a phase of greater tension
last night with charge from Adolf
Hitler that American destroyers had
engaged in aggression and a declar-
alton from Secretary of the Navy
Knox that I'VE are in this fight to
the finish
Secretary KnoX's assertion was
made in an address to a Marine
Corps audience at Quantico, Va.
while his subordinateS al the Navy
Department hopefully awaited word
from the North Atlantic increasing
the list of known survivors of the
torpedoed destroyer Reuben James.
Forty-four enlisted men had been
| rescued out Of personnel roster of
about 100 The fact that these sur
vivors were safe, and that the de-
stroyer had been torpedoed and sunk
while on convoy duty was all the
information the department had.
Radios Kept Silent.
Some hopefully assumed that
ships of the CONVOY had effected
rescues which they had not vet re-
ported. and would not report until
they made port. The practice has
been to use the radio as little as
possible. lest the ships position be
divulged to lurking submarines.
Official comment on the extraordi-
nary statement issued from Hitler's
headquarters in Russia was limited
to the remark by State Depart
ment spokesman, in response to
questions, that German propaganda
seemed to be trying to deny the
right of self-defense to those coun-
tries in danger of attack.
This official referred reporters to
President Roosevelt's address of last
Monday for a statement OF this
Governments attitude as to who
was the aggressor in clashes in the
North Atlantic between American
destroyers and Nazi war craft.
In that address, Mr.. Roosevelt
said:
I'VE have wished to avoid shoot
ing But the shooting has started.
And history has recorded who fired
the first shot. In the long run. how
ever, all that will matter is who
fired the last shot.
Called Two Ships AggressOrs.
Mr.. Roosevelt referred to the
attempted torpedoing of the U. S.
destroyer Greer on September 4
and to the attack October II on
the destroyer Kearny which was hit
by a torpedo with the loss of II
men but limped safely to an un-
disclosed port.
The German statement dealt only
with these two incidents and made
the contention that the Greer and
Kesrny were aggressors.
The last word on the Reuben
James was released by the Navy
Department Friday night. when 1t
was announced that the A enlisted
men were known to have been saved
from the sinking ship.
Relatives of members of the crew,
waiting anxiouslv at their homes
throughout the United States, have
in the meantime besieged news
papers and the Navy Department
for information.

British Produce New Explosive
For Battle of the Atlantic

One who had would not talk of it.,
even off the record.
Authoritative quarters here would
neither confirm nor deny a report
abroad that the British were now
filling their depth charges for naval
warfare with an explosive Al times
more powerful than TINT. Informed
observers however, said they be-
lieved such super-depth charge
would be too much to hope for.
They said that if the report should
be true, it would give Britain and
the United States powerful trump
in the battle of the Atlantic, al
though they thought it would not
be a decisive factor.
The big job is to find the U-boat.
and then drop depth charges they
said. The present type of charges
are pretty effective once the de-
stroyer finds the SUBJ"
