flight of Rudolf Hess to Scotland
result in a libel action by the

pamphlet attributed to the three
and titled “Why Is Hess Here?’’;
The Duke of Hamilton, a flying
officer in the Royal Air Force, ob
jected to the manner in which i
his name was linked with the
Hess escapade in the publication.

Alaska Ship
Crewmen May
Be Interned
Crew members on Alaska ves
sels wh'ch step at Canadian ports
are Table to interment if they
are nationals of any country now
at war with Great Britain, Col
lector of Customs James J. Con
nors was informed in a telegram
received from R. F. Field, Direct

merce.
The announcement is expected
to affect seamen and employees
cn several lines which call occa
sionally at Prince Rupert and
Vancouver.
The telegram was as follows:
"Bureau informed by State De
partment that persons whose na
tionality is that of any country
now at war with Great Britain if
employed as crew member on ves
sels of United States which call
at any port of British Empire are
liable to internment unless fully
naturalized as citizens of United
States. Inform ship owners and
operators in your district that
special effort should be made to
avoid signing on crew members
in this category because of diffi
cult position in which British
Government is placed, namely,
making choice between interning
crew members who may be es
sential to operation of vessel and
teleasing individuals who have
acquired knowledge of British
ship movements, defenses and
the like.
"Also inform ship owners and
operators your district that au
thorities of British Scuth Africa
have refused to grant shore leave
to German and Italian born Am
etican seamen even though natur
alized and suggest that such sea
men if employed be warned they
will not be permitted to land at
any South African port.”

ed in London as the strategy whcih would enable the Germans to “leap-frog” into Dodocanese Is

or drive on Syria (4)), by-passing Turkey. Conquest of Syria would be the opening wedge toward the

New Classes Of
Reserves For
Navy Of U. S.
SEATTLE, June — The U. S.
Navy has just announced a new
Reserve class “for adventuresome
men with maritime experience,
who wish to do their bit in aid
ing National Defense, and to fur
her their own experience on the
type of vessel they like and with
which they are familiar.” The
announcement was issued by
S.aff Headquarters, Thirteenth
i Naval District and it was pointed
I out that the new class is of spec
ial interest to commercial fisher
men tugboat operators, and pow
er yacht skippers and engineers.
Age limits in the new class are
17 to 50, and although a physical
examination must be passed
there are waivers granted for
minor defects of men nearer the
j upper age limits. Ratings offered
I range from apprentice seamen to
I chief petty officer, indicating pay
j from $21 to $99 per month in ad
dition to food, quarters, medical
iand dental attention. That rapid
promotion is likely is shown by
the fact that on May 1 the Navy
showed a 23,761 deficiency in pet
ty officers, it was stated.
Enlistment is for four years,
and for specific duty “probably
in the Pacific Northwest or Al
aska,” Navy officials said. Full in
formation may be had at the
nearest Navy recruiting station.
