GERMANY ADVISED OF U.S. VIEW
Aid To Democracies In Wartime (Received March 21, 6.30 p.m.) WASHINGTON, March 20. The Under-Secretary of State, Mr. Sumner Welles, today handed the German Charge d’Affaires a Note formally advising Germany concerning the United States opinion of the seizure of Czechoslovakia.
Senator Pittman, chairman of the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee, today introduced a Bill providing that, one month after the start of hostilities between foreign States, a Presidential proclamation would make unlawful tne carriage of goods or passengers by any American vessel to the countries concerned. All materials, however, would oe available to any nation able to pay cash and carry the goods in its own vessels. This, it is believed will aid the democracies since they control tlie seas.
