ALONG COAST - " OF VENEZUELA Netherlands Warships Make Demonstration, | BLOCKADE MAY FOLLOW Action Taken Regarded as an Indica- tion of Preparations for a More Ef- fective Move Against Castro’s Coun- try—News of the Demonstration Came as a Surprise to Washington Officials. ‘Willemstad, Curacao, Dec. J.—Three Dutch warships, the battleship Jacob Van Heemskerk and the cruisers Friesland and Gelderland, have made a demonstration against Venezuela. Together they steamed along the coast from Puerto Cabello to La Guayra at 2 distance of 3,000 yards from the shore. The Jacob Van Heemskerk has re- turned here. The two cruisers are going to Maracaibo, where they will make a similar demonstration. This news was brought to Willem- stad by the battleship. A The demonstration is regarded as indicating the preparations for an effective blockade of the Venezuelan coast are completed. It is reported here that The Neth- erlands battleship De Rujiter left Hol- land Thursday for this port. SURPRISE AT WASHINGTON Nobody Appears to Have Been Ad- vised of Holland’s Move. ‘Washington, Dec. J.— “Holland seems to be making faces at Venezu- ela,” was the comment when the news.. came from Willemgtad that The Neth- erlands government warships had been making a demonstration off the Venesuelan coast. Nobody in Wash- ington appears to have been advised of this latest move, as neither the state department nor Mr. Louden, The Netherlands minister, have any infor- mation on the subject. The state de- partment is without any diplomatic representation in Venezuela and such brief advices that have come from | there since the legation was closed have been from a clerk who was left in charge of the archives. There has | begn for some time talk of a block- ade by The Netherlands government | of the ports of Venezuela so as to i| force: President Castro to revoke his decree which prevented the transship- ment of merchandise from Curacao to ‘Venezuela, but Holland has-hesitated about proceeding in this direction be- cause of the conflict which would in- other powers in Venezuela. The lat- fiminary step” to” a more” émphatic movement in the near future and may have been inspired by the fact that President Castro is now away from Venezuela and the reins -of the, gov- ernment are now in the hands of Vice President Gomez.
