Changes Made
in Subdivision

Approval OF new building re-
strictions in the College Heights
Subdivision Friday evening opened
the way for construction OF new
homes in the area. 1t has been re-
ported that SO new homes are con-
templated by the Ann Arbor Trust
Co. holders Of the largest number
OF lots.
Building restrictions will be from
$4,000 for about two thirds OF the
lots and scale to a minimum OF
81 900.
Within a few days the restric-
tions will be put into force. Ad-
ditional lot owner signatures will
be affixed to the official papers as
rapidly as the owners can be con-
tacted. The action OF the Asso-
citation removes certain obstacles
which have hindered building
homes In this area.
The newly elected board will
bear the responsibility Of enforc-
ing the restrictions and passing on
building plans submitted by those
who desire to build. Arold w.
Brown, W. Fred Jacobs, and s. z.
Fagerstrom. Ypsilsnt, j. Karl NAL
colin and Louis G. Andrews, Ann
Arbor. constitute the board. The
local committee was instructed to
continue its work in securing nee
essary civic Improvements for the
subdivision. Full cooperation OF
the lot owners in the Association
made the favorable action on the
new restrictions possible.

President Says Sinking Of
Robin Moor an Act
Of Piracy
NAVY DEPARTMENT
SILENT ON ORDERS
Government Cites Right to
Act Under International
Law
lsy international News serylee)

LBy international News seryiee)
Washington, June 81 ms -
The American government, It was
learned today, takes the position
that the United States Navy is
nov free OF seize by force any
German submarine or surface raid
err caught interfering with ar
American merchantmen on the
high seas.
This position is based on Pres.
ident Roosevelt's decision that
the German submarine sinking Of
the Robin Moor constituted an act
OF piracy on the RICH seas, authori-
tative quarters said.
Under international law, such an
act gives the American Navy the
right not only TO capture foreign
warships engaged in such activi-
ties but TO destroy them II they
resist surrender.
Can Be Tried
II captured, the German war
ships can be brought to an Amer
lean port and their crews tried in
a federal tribunal as pirates.
Whether any orders actually
have been issued to the Navy to
resort TO such measures against
German warships caught inter.er-
ing with American ships on the
high seas could not be ascertsin-
ed. The Navy Department regards
such information as defense
secret.
However. state department ex-
perts have ruled that the sinking
Of the Robin Moor was an act OF
piracy, and that President Roose-
velt's proclamation Of 1t as such
in his message to Congress places
this government at liberty to act
accordingly under diplomatic
quarters that any German sub
marine or raider caught interfer-
ing with an American merchant
man on the high seas henceforth
