GERMAN DENIAL.
DISASTER IN ATLANTIC
(Ree. 12.45 p.m.) BERLIN, Sept. 23. It is officially denied' that Germany is responsible for the sinking of the child evacuee ship. It is stated that no German U-boat or aeroplane is operating 600 miles from the British coast.
“The Germans attack only armed merchantmen. That is our answer to the British report, which is a brazen lie for squeezing the tear glands of the world and contributing towards bringing the United States into the war on the British side,” adds the statement.
