WASHINGTON, Dec, 6.—Count von Bernstorff to-day presented to the State Department a communication asking for the reasons for the Fequest for the withdrawal of Capt. Boy-Ed and Capt. von Papen, the German Naval and Military Attaches, respectively. It was stated authoritatively, though not in the communication, that the Ambassador would under no consideration ask the United States to get safe conducts for the attaches. The German Government was represented as considering incumbent upon the United States to return the attaches in safety to German tert tory and bring their successors here. Later to-day the State Depart- ment received another inquiry on the same subject from the Berlin Foreign Office transmitted by Ambassador Gerard. It was made known here of- ficinlly that the United States would decline to go into the ques- tion of facts on the subject and would not disclose the sources of its information. Should it develop from the State Department's answer that other inci- dents than the Archibald case, and the testimony at the trial of the conspira- tors of the Hamburg-American Line were considered by the United States in asking that the attaches be with- drawn, Germany will contest the with- drawals, Should the Department re- ply that those two incidents alone were responsible, the withdrawal will take place without further inquiry or protest, Even then, Germany will con sider that under the circumstances the United States must open the way for the attaches to leave the country, The embassy was represented as considering that and the attaches stand before the bar of public opinion. In such circumstances the understand~ 4 connected with anything under attack: other than the Archibald incident and the testimony in the Federal Court im New York, All this action is considered by off clals of the State Department to be contrary to precedents of diplomatic procedure. While conferences upon the subject are in progress the two attaches, Capt. Boy-Ed and Capt. von Papen, will remain within the United States. They were both in Washing- ton to-day, and they have conferred with Count von Bernstorff several times, Under all diplomatic usage it is only necessary for the United States to Indicate to Germany that the at- taches are persona non grata, and tt ds not ne ary to give @ reason for {asking their withdrawal. Officials of the State Department re- fused to express thelr views for pub- lication, but it ts known they are of the opinion that should Germany de cline to ask for safe conducts for the attaches the men may have to leave the country without them.
