U S Protests Austria Over Petrolite Attack
The United States rejects Austro-Hungarian claims about the December 5 attack on the Standard Oil tanker Petrolite in the Mediterranean. Secretary Lansing’s memorandum to Ambassador Penfield asserts sworn crew statements show no shots across the bow, that the Petrolite displayed neutral markings, and that the submarine commander mistook the vessel for a cruiser. The note demands apology, punishment, and indemnity for the assault on American nationals and the flag.
