BALFOUR EXPLAINS CASTEX QUOTATION Tells Commons, Tfiouah Ar- ticle Did Not Bind France, Views Were Important. By the Associated Press, LONDON, February 24.—The alleged misleading quotation by Lord Lee of the British delegation to the Wash- ington conference from articles by “Castex” on submarine warfare, which appeared in the Revwe Mari- {.time in 1920, came up for discussion in the house of commons yesterday. ! In reply to a question as to whether and whether this quotation affected adversely the proposals to reduce the submarine tonnage of the leading naval powers, A. P. Balfour, who was head of the British mission, said that numerous points should be borne in mind regarding the submarine dis- cussions at Washington. The statement of “Castex,” he de- clared, did not commit the French admiralty, government or people, but his views could not be ignored. .An important part of the first article ex- pressed the German views on proper use of the submarine in war, land in the course of this ex- comp an explanation could be given of this the Co@suls Write 8 First Service 71,891 Letters, Bulletin Shows Detalls of how the 457 .American «consuls now in the service of the State Department are “gathering informa- tion, extending protection, enforcing American laws and exerting Ameri- can influence” in more than 400 citles of fitty countries are'set forth by Wilbur J. Carr, director of the con- sular service, in the first issue of the American Consular Bulletin, a month- 1y published by the American Consular Assoclatfon, an unofficlal and volun- tary organization embracing most of the members of the consular service of the United States. “There is probably no class of offi- cers of the government whose func- tions are less correctly understood by the public than consuls” says Di- rector Carr. “To one man a consul is merely a viser of passports; to another the word consul signifies a glorified traveling salesman charged with the marketing of American goods in foreign lands.

We could not conclude that he desired the destruction of England, but only that, if he did, unrestricted sub- marine warfare would be the mari- time weapon on which he probably would rely.” Mr. Balfour said Castex saw blem- ishes in the German practice, and thought as Great Britain did, that submarine warfare with its cruelty was both useless and stupid.
