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." .

suggestion would be put into
concrete form.
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."
