Stntement Dcfinlnn Attitude of Unit

W vaillNCITON, April 28 A atate
ineiit denning the altitude of the
1'nlied States toward armed mer
chant ships was made public today
U the state department by direction
of President Wilson. It originally
was prepared as a circular note to
other powers but it Inter was decid
ed to Issue It as a statement.
Tbe statement holds to the right of
a merchant slilp to arm for prolec
t on only but declares that "merchant
men which have used their armament
for aggressive purimaea are not enti
tled to the same hospitality in neutral
lHirts as unarmed merchantmen.
Define the IHfl'civnco
"In brief, a neutral government
nui presume upon the presumption
thai an armed merchant vetsel of
in lllaerent nationality Is armed for
uKKreNxlou, while a belllgeieut should
luoieed on the' presumption that the
v e--.e I U armed for protection. Doth
or these presumptions may bo over
come li eidence the first by sec
onds iv or collateral evidence, allien
tbe fact to be established la negative
In character: the second by prlinar)
mid direct evidence, since the fact
to he established Is positive in char
acter "
Then the statement goes on at
length to take up the rights and du
ties of neutrals and belllgeients as
affected by the stale of armed mer
chant vessels In neutral porta and
high seas. It lay down the rule that
while merchantmen! armed only for
protection against the enemy are en
titled to enter and leae neutral ports
without hindrance In the course of
legitimate trade, the are not so en
titled under certain circumstances
which are detailed as follews:
