(AP) Mrs. Luella Wren of Roseburg disclosed yesterday she had be come a great-grandmother at 49 when a son was born recently to her grandson and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Spendow, Jr., in Colorado. Mrs. Wren's daughter, Mrs. Marie Gorsh, thus became a grandmother at 31. Mrs. Gorsh resides at Butte, Mont. Uao Mall Trlbun want ads. itself into these three parts in the White House view: 1. She was on a perfectly legal and lawful voyage under existing laws. 2. Under the neutrality act requested of congress, she could not have sailed on that voyage to a belligerent port. 3. The state department has sent cablegrams asking its rep resentatives at various points abroad to develop the facts and report. The reports now are be ing awaited. Rest On Tradition In requesting Russia, as a neu tral, to release the ship and crew, unless such conditions as storm, lack of provisions or a breakdown of machinery forced her into port, the American gov ernment will rest its case on a traditional American attitude. Russia, on the other hand, may rely upon Article 23 of the 1907 Hague convention on neu trality to enable her to contest the probable United States claim. This article stated that "a neu tral power may allow prizes to enter its ports and roadsteads, whether under convoy or not, when they are brought there to be sequestered pending the de cision of a prize court. It may have the prize taken to another of its ports. "If the prize Is convoyed by a warship, the prize crew may go on board the convoying ship. "If the prize is not under con voy the prize crew are left at liberty." U. S. Declined. When the United States rati fied The Hague convention it specifically declined to accept article 23. Russia, therefore, may claim the City of Flint can be detained in port until a German prize court dpcides her fate, but the United States will say that such detention is illegal. The City of Flint, a 4.963-ton vessel owned by the U. S. mari time commission, was in the hands of a German prize crew of 17 and flying the nazi flag, when it put in at Tromso, Nor way, last Friday night. It stopped there to land 38 British sailors it had rescued a week before from the Stonegate, a torpedoed British freighter. The City of Flint apparently had been taken near Great Britain soon after the Stonegate rescue. British Detain Ships. Authorities at Tromso, who said the American crew was still aboard when the City of Flint left, there Saturday evening, ex pressed the belief the Americans would be sent home from Mur mansk. Meanwhile, maritime commis sion officials said that "several" American merchant ships now are being dctaianed for search by the British. "This has been going on ever since the start of the war and it is perfectly legal," I spokes man said. The City of Flint was carry ing about 5.000 tons of general cargo, destined for Liverpool and Glasgow. It was assumed in Washington the Germans re garded the cargo as contraband for Britain. On the freighter, the mari time commission said, were such items as tractors, lard, cereals, canned goods, flour, apples, wax, lubricating oil. cotton, sewing machines, plows, asphalt, pitch, grease, machinery, silk, com mercial chemicals, disinfectants, feathers, rags, coffee, lumber. gauze, hair and wallboard.

The fact that the City of Flint was taken to a neutral port rather than to Germany compli cated the situation, in the belief of legal experts. They said thet onl yexceptional circumstances bad weather, need of repairs or lack of supplies warranted such an action. 4 Large Shipment Of Peppermint Oil Is Shipped By Oregon W. J.
