The Gesmans admit by their own protests that the British blockade is powerful and ef fective. Instead of endeavoring to break the British blockade and force her own ships through it Germany has declared a counter-blockade of Britain enforced to a major extent by U-boat war. fare. Seldom have these U-boats attacked blockading warcraft; rather their targets have been merchantmen. Mr. Roosevelt mentioned a German promise on submarine warfare in connection with the Robin Moor, the United States freighter which was sent to the bottom by a U-boat in the south Atlantic in May, her passengers being put in open boats in which they drifted for weeks. It is just as well to recall the circumstances and particulars of Germany's promise for it got but a few lines in the papers at the time Nov. 23, 1936 the public being much intrigued with the events leading up to the abdication of his Majesty Edward VIII of England. On thatelay Germany formal ly adhered to the London pro tocol for the humanization of submarine warfare. This proto col strictly forbade submarines in time of war to sink a merch ant ship until the crew, the pas sengers and the ship's papers were afforded a safe haven. It was specifically stated that this did not mean lifeboats in the open sea, unless land were near and the weather good. Above all, the true safety of passengers was made the primary consideration.

KNIGHT PACKING COMPANY The War Today (This daily feature, conducted by DeWitt MacKenzie, is being written today by Fred Vander-Schmldt.) The German reply to Presi dent Roosevelt's no-trespass speech bears the unmistakable stamp of Hitler's propaganda ministry. It U worthy of note that the spokesman who deliv ered it made the point that it was not a "declaration" of the reich's government but a "com ment" at the request of corres pondents, and thus the Germans shov- plainly thut they do not care to have it recorded historic ally. No copies of the text were made available. The Germans reiterate that it is the British blockade and not their own U-boat tactics, which bars freedom of the seas.
