The responsibility for their internment should bo divided between the Homo and the \V?r Offices, . Lord Charles Beiesford said it was a singular coincidence that . ships which Hailed without- proper escorts were those blown up by tho-German submarines. .It could not-be- denied that the; blowing up of. the.Formidablo was due to the fact that her ,dej>artura was known to «pies. ,-.77 Mr. H.
