The statement follows: v “By order of the @ president, the navy department of the United States has this day taken over the control and operation.of the SBayville Radio station belonging to the Atlantic Com- munications company. The new and more powerful transmitting ®et re- i cently installed by the company and not heretofore used, by means of which more efficient service is as sured can.now be put into operation. “Bimply for the purpose of proteet- ing its legal and financlal and com- mercial rights, the company has for. mally filed protests against the navy department's dction with the presi- dent and with the state, ‘navy and commercé departments, | Co-operate. With U. S. Officers. “The company is now able to si- i 'co-operating with' the officers of the United States navy in = maintaining that strict, neutrality enjoined by President Wilson’s recent proclama- tion and which in all respects, it has heretofore strictly observed. “This company has committed no improper or unneutral act. No charge of any such act has been brought to the attention of its officers by any of- ficial of the United States. = The gov- ernment ‘censors on duty at'the sta: tion have carefully superyised ' all messages sent and have retained cop- ies' of the same. The company being a' public service corporation had no discretion in refusing . or accepting messages. As a matter of fact, the station on accountof ‘static conditions and aleo on account of lack of power ‘was unable ‘during, the summer months to communicate with Ger- ‘many for ore than one or two hours ‘during the night. This difficulty will now be overcome by the operation of the hew transmitter. _, Articles ‘Abeolutely False. ‘Articles recently published in the hetvspapers of this and other states, 3 neutral or improper ae- tions to this company, were. absolute- q1ycfalse.
