Tak KverwiNd STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., FRIDAY, AUGUST 2, # REPLY DEPLORES NAZI FLAG RIOT U. S. Exchange of Notcs With Germany Completed Without Apology. By the Assoclatec Press. The diplomatic exchange of notes with the German government over the ripping of the Nazi flag from the liner Bremen at New York was complete today with a State Depart- ment reply that the incident “was in no sense due to neglect on the part of American authorities.” No apology had been demanded end none was forthcoming in the answer given yesterday to Charge d'Affaires Rudolf Leitner by Acting ccretary Phillips. The note did say, however, that “It is unfortunate that, in spite of the sincere efforts of the police to prevent any disorder whatever, the | German national emblem should, dur- | ing the disturbance which took place, | not have received that respect to which it is entitied.” | The German government had in- structed Herr Leitner to “make the most emphatic protest against this serious insult to the German na- tional emblem,” and expressed the expectation that everything would be | done by the American authorities to puitish the guilty. Phillips’ reply said the persons im- | plicated in the disorder aboard the ship last Friday “have been appre- hended and are being held for trial.” Police Report Given. The note contained a police report of the occurrence and said the police authorities at New York had taken *“most extensive precautions in order to prevent any untoward incident.” The State Department said the police report indicated a considerable number of police had been detailed to prevent a disturbance, but that | the officers of the Bremen “did not | deem it necessary to adopt” measures designed to keep unauthorized per- sons from the decks of the ship. Detective Matthew Solomon was set upon and knocked down as he tried | to arrest leaders of the demonstra- | tors, the American note said. While Berlin had “expressed the | expectation” that the American au- thorities would aet to punish the demonstrators, there was nothing in the note to indicate the Federal Gov- | ernment would intercede in the prose- | cution of the case in New York. | The police report said steamship line officials had been warned of the threatened demonstration, but that | the Bremen'’s officers and crew—re- enforced by 55 special officers—had ceclared they were fully competent | to handle any situation aboard the vessel The police said Communists, who had issued handbills calling all Catho- lics, Jews and anti-Nazis to the pier for a demonstration, were allowed to g0 on board the Bremen by paying a 10-cent fee. Reds Among Visitors. It said among those who boarded the vessel in that manner were the small group of “Reds” who started the riot, tore down the flag and se- verely injured Detective Solomon. The American note said: “I have received your note of July | 29, 1935, in which, upon instructions | from your government, you lodge a protest against the action of demon- strators in New York in tearing down | the German flag flying from the bow | of the German steamship Bremen | when that vessel was departing from New York the night of July 26, 1935.

Large Police Detail. | “I invite particular attention to those sections of the report which indicate that a very considerable number of police were detailed to | prevent disturbances; that the police suggested measures to prevent per- sons other than the passengers and other duly authorized visitors from | boarding the vessel, but that the officers of the steamship line did not deem it necessary to adopt such measures; that unauthorized persons, accordingly, succeeded in boarding the steamer; that before the vessel sailed such elements started a demonstra- tion; that police authorities took im- | mediate and efficient action with a view to clearing the ship of all un- authorized persons, and that during the course of this action one of the police, namely, Detective Matthew Solomon, in attempting to apprehend the ringleaders, was set upon, knocked down and sustained serious injury. “I also invite attention to that section of the inclosed report which indicates that the persons implicated in this disorder have been appre- hended and are being held for trial. “It is unfortunate that, in spite of the sincere efforts of the police to prevent any disorder whatever, the German national emblem should, during the disturbance which took place, not have received that respect to which it is entitled.” Text of Protest. The department coincidently made public the text of the German protest, signed by Leitner. It said: “By direction of my government, I have the honor to advise your excel- lency of the following: “Late in the evening of July 26, shortly before the departure of the German steamship Bremen from New York Harbor, the German flag flying from the bow of the steamship was violently torn off by demonstrators. “I am instructed to make the most emphatic protest against this serious insult to the German national em- blem, and I venture to express the expectation that everything will be done on the part of the American authorities charged with the prose- cution of criminal offenses in order that the guilty persons may be duly punished.” Jeweler Freed in Poison Death. NEW YORK, August 2 (#).—Homi- cide charges against John Parades, a Jeweler, in connection with the poison death of Louis Cirina, violinist, were dismissed yesterday upon lack of evi- dénce connecting him with what po- 1&;:: consider an insurance murder plot. » A | of Ethiopian aggression was justified, | Africa against possible aggression at any time when Italy might be em- broiled in European complications and her African possessions laid open | to attack. The suggestion first was made in| the House of Commons yesterday | by Sir Herbert Samuel, leader of the Liberal faction. The foreign secretary said the sug- gestion struck him as “interesting” | and that he would see that it was conveyed to Anthony Eden, Britain's delegate to the League of Nations| Council session at Geneva. Sir Herbert told the House of Com- mons he doubted whether Italian fear but that Italy had the right to draw | the League's attention to the possi- iliy. If the Ethiopians had intended to attack Italy, he said, the right mo- ment would have been during the| World War, but no such movem-m‘ materialized then. He said that if Britain and France, | as neighbors of Ethiopia, gave Italy | their pledge against Ethiopian ag- | gression, it might ease the situation. | The Liberal also pointed out that | the “economic strain on Italy was | already fairly considerable, prices ha: ing rapidly risen, although govern- mental activity had reduced unem- ployment.” Britain would feel no satisfaction, Sir Herbert said, in seeing Italy en- | gaged in any costly or difficult venture. BRITONS HELD SLAVES. Oxford Meeting Says Ethiopian | Raiders Go Unchecked. OXFORD, England, August 2.—Sir John Harris told the All-Peoples As- sociation Conference today that Brit- ish subjects are being held as slaves in Ethiopia. “It is said that part of the Ifallan case against Ethiopia is that a cer- tain number of raids have taken place in Italian territory,” said the parlia- mentary secretary to the Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protection Society. “It -hould be remembered that as many as 100 raiders have crossed into British territory. There are British subjects held as slaves within Ethiopia. “There is no doubt that the Emperor of Ethiopia is a great reformer and that he is anxious to put an end to slavery, but he has no power to com- pel his chiefs to set slaves free.” STEAMSHIPS.
