I Continuous Shows rTodoy From 12 Noon RITTER Our Gang Comedy News STAG I BRITISH SAY EIGHT SHIPS LOSTAT SEA (Continued from Page One) Including the three war vessels. Two merchantmen, totalling 11,000 tons, reported yesterday as probably sunk, were includ ed in this newer, unqualified claim. First announcing the assault on the convoy in a special com munique yesterday, the high command said it included . 40 ships heavily escorted by cor vettes and destroyers. Germany's raised claim of the toll in ' the raid on Britain's commerce, which started sev eral days before President Roosevelt spoke, followed off! cial denunciation of his broad cast The president's speech, au thoritative sources declared, "made no difference in purely formal diplomatic relations be tween Germany and the United States." Hohnan Sees -F. R. Sending U. S. Into War (Continued from Page One) "the great bulk of the American people felt that President Roose velt was resisting the warmon gers and that he was doing every thing he could to keep the coun try out of war. Today they re alize that instead of resisting the warmongers, he is leading the pack." Hits 'Violation' Wheeler's address was broad cast over tthe local radio sta tion. He spoke before a crowd of several thousand. The speech, he said, "only proved what his worst enemies have been saying about him mainly, that he would take this country to war." "The effect of his speech was to say to tthe people of the Unit ed States, 1 am going to take you into a shooting war as far as a navy is concerned without submitting the question to the congress of the United States'." Roosevelt's order to the navy to fire on all axis ships in Am erican waters, he said, was a "violation of tthe constitution, for it provides that only congress shall declare war." ' ; 1 The "president, Wheeler- said, 'is leading us dowrt the road to war in the name of national de fense." a Citing the Robin Moor case, Senator Wheeler charged the president had not played fair with American people by telling them the true facts about the various sinkings of .American ships by the axis powers. "When he (Roosevelt) spoke of the Robin Moor, he failed to tell that the boat was carrying contraband of war and he failed to tell the American people whether or not the Steel Sea farer carried munitions of war or other contraband, but he tried to leave the impression that all the sinkings were in violation of international 1 a w," Wheeler said. ' He also charged Roosevelt was not frank in telling the people what "our defense waters were, in his opinion." .

Such a step, it was pointed out, would require congression al repeal or at least revision of the neutrality act, since that law specifically prohibits Amer ican commercial vessels from carrying other than small arms. Another problem would be to obtain th necessary guns, In view of the keen demand for such weapons by the united States army and navy, and by the British as well. WASHINGTON, Sept. 13 (ff) "A Junker 88 or, at any rate, a German plane" was blamed to day in a sworn statement of an officer of th U.S. Steel Seafarer for the sinking of his ship in the Red Sea Sept. 5. The state department Issued the affidavit by Joseph M. C. Suka, third officer of the American-owned vessel, who swore to it at Sues yesterday. Suka's statement ' which followed re ports from British sources in Cairo that the attacking plane was a German bomber based in Greece, said: "I was standing alongside the captain when I heard a motor that sounded as if it belonged to a plane. "We looked towards the ap parent direction of the plane and saw it approaching towards us on the .starboard side. "The moon was full and di rectly overhead. "The visibility was perfect. I could even see th plane's ex haust sparkling. "It was a twin motored plane, very large, and heavily built with a snug nose. "I hav consulted today Ital ian and German silhouette of planes and I firmly believ that tha plan I saw was most prob-. ably Junkers 88 or, at any rate German plan and not an Italian. ' "Th plane passed directly over th ship about 250 feet, a well aa I can judge, above the main mast ' "About two seconds after the plane was clear of the ship I heard a muffled explosion, to me to be below the water line. (One word was missing in the state department's message from the above paragraph, and it was assumed to b th word "seem ing" which would make it read it seemed to Suka to have come from below the water line).' "About a second later another explosion which appeared to be a little louder than the first. "I believe that the plane could have had no difficulty in identi fying the ship."
