that the vessel's commander admit
ted to the governor of Smyrna that
the Litchfield registered slightly
more than 1.000 tons, tho limit set
by the Turks, but explained that de
stroyers nowadays were necessarily
fairly large ships and that ho would

The commander supported his an
swer by adding that if permission was
refused he had orders to remain
anyway and pointed out that it would
bo much more pleasant not to have
