Slips Out 10 Sea
French Merchantmen
Leaves Montevideo
With Food Cargo
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay, Jan. IA.
The 8199-ton French merchant
man Mendoza, baked twice in at
tempts to get past the British block
ade, slipped out to sea again today
with a cargo of Argentine food for
France
Uruguayan Foreign Minister AL
berto GUAM said he would protest
to the British Minister if an inves-
tigation showed that Uruguayan
waters had been violated.
In two attempts to run the block
ade, Sunday night and again last
night. the Mendoza was intercepted
by a British naval patrol. Another
French merchant vessel, the 1896
ton Campana, was loading at
Buenos Aires meanwhile, and three
others were awaiting their turn.
Preliminary reports, the Foreign
Minister said, indicated the British
auxiliary cruiser Asturias had halted
the Mendoza outside the 3-mile limit.
While a launch from the Asturias
was approaching the freighter, Mr..
GUAM said, the Mendoza apparently
drifted. or moved, into the 3-mile
zone. and the Asturias withdrew with
her launch.
British Minister Millington Drake,
who hurried here from Buenos Aires
last night to confer with Mr.. GUAM.
also said the interception occurred
on the high seas.
The Asturias halted the Mendoza,
Mr. Drake said. because the freighter
had sailed without navicert (cer-
tiflcate permitting passage through
the blockade) and wished to ascer-
tain the nature of her cargo. The
Asturias. he added, abandoned the
freighter as soon as she entered ter
ritorial waters.
British officials said the Mendoza
had not asked for a navicert and
| declared the whole affair was staged
to test the British refusal to allow
food to pass through the blockade.
Had the Mendoza succeeded in pass
ing, they said, four other French
merchantmen at Buenos Aires
would have attempted to duplicate
the feat.
